Hilde Bracegirdle has just left Hobbiton.
No wonder it is so warm, with that roaring fire you've got going in the chiminea! I think it is melting the chocolate bits clean out of my cookies!

Can I hide in here for awhile? I don't have the energy to cope with moderating right now, but a nice cookie and a cup of tea with friends who aren't squabbling about the movie would be very pleasant. Thanks for the cookie, Hilde - may I pour you a cuppa?

Well, I shall keep my blanket in any case, dear Dawg, as I am feeling quite chilled. But perhaps a cookie will also inspire some warmth, thank you, Hilde. And tea too would be lovely.

Estelyn, do you think we will be busier with this new movie out?

*Hilde also accepts a cup with gratitude, and stirs it with eyes averted and ears straining as she awaits Esty's reply.

It's hard to say, Bb - we do have a few new members coming in, and certainly the members that have been around longer are discussing a lot on the movie forum. I guess the Hobbit movie just didn't fascinate me enough to compete with real life interests, so I'm not enjoying posting as much as I did 10 years ago.

I'll make some more tea - would you prefer green or Lady Grey?

Well, since I haven't seen the movie yet, I am enjoying reading the comments. But we do seem to have a rash of rude posts lately. Imagine telling Legolas he didn't need to provide a long explanation!

Oh, and green would be lovely, ta.

Hilde, your cookies were just the kind of Christmas treat I like, crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy inside. I suspect Bilbo might have been rather fond of that kind too.
