I wonder if it ever got this cold in the Shire? This morning it was zzz... zzzze... zzzeeee.... uh... z-z-z-zero degrees at our house. That doesn't normally happen. Now I know how Frodo felt on Caradhras. "This will be the death of the hobbits."
And from Bilbo: "I wish I was back at Bag End with the kettle just beginning to sing." I'd have the kettle on the woodstove, I think.
If it's that cold again tonight I think I'll bake more lembas. Wish I knew Bilbo's recipe for seed-cake.
