Keith’s 5-star guide to Middle Earth Eateries
(or, Where can I get a decent meal around here?) From Elrond’s table to Barliman’s bar, or the galley of Eambar in the Land of the Star; not the buttery of Targon nor Beorning bread, could even this score or settle this debt. Yet a few captured gleanings laid out in a spread, nothing green but some weeds (and all of them dead) were all that was needed yes, this meal did rate, even though the deliveries have been sporadic of late.

Here's a little ditty that should be easy enough to solve:
As clear as clean water, it works from bottom on up, curling your hair from the dregs of your cup. When you travel the earth, you will go far if ever you sample this growth from a jar. |

![]() Ooooh - baby! I'm feelin' HOT today! If only I can get the "fangs" one now...
Yes - I even forgot about the pipe-weed: it was the "captured" and "deliveries... sporadic of late" that tipped me! Could NOT come up with this yesterday. Even took an "ent" riddle... just lucky Earniel isn't around, I'd guess! ![]() Fangs... I'll keep thinkin' about it, but really now, how many of Middle Earth's creatures DON'T have fangs??! That riddle also has the advantage of being short... so it gives less opportunity for an alternate clue if you fail to pick up on one or two, I guess. ![]() |

Another little riddle:
This wandering Elf sent by Cirdan the Wise, sought proof for the origin of a great prize. |

Voronwe, Shelob and the wolf are all incorrect for their corresponding riddles. I'm beginning to like my fangs riddle more with each passing hour!
