The Tolkien Coming of Age Club 2

[Mithalwen]

Congratulations for yesterday ... and for enlivening the old folk..... must be some coffee...

[Raefindel]

Thank You Mithalwen . We had a nice time.

I posted the coffee recipe on the Arda Recipe Book thread.

[Snowdog]

A most excellent recipe it is too! I posted a tater recipe I have grown fond of.

How is everyone here in the Club??

Snowdog,

I'm quite well today, thanks. The lungs are working! Always a plus. I had a busy weekend, but got a lot done. Broght in lots of firewood, but it's too warm to start a fire! I'll take it.

Thinking hard about "The Hedged Inn", and hoping it can be made into a fun, useful, enjoyable, and Tolkien-focused ... mission... quest... thing.

Thank You for the compliment, Snowdog . The Tater Recipe sounds delicious, too. When I lived in the south (California, it's near Gondor) I did indeed grow coffee, though, when I moved with my people back North it died in the cold.

I had thought of trying to grow a cocoa plant as well, but someone comvinced me it would never bear fruit as it required a specific insect to polinate it, and it was sadly not indiginous to Gondor.

And as to how I am, I am well, thank You. I have many sewing projects sitting on the sidelines waiting till my house is finished before I begin them. How are you?

Helen, girlfriend, I've gotcha pegged! I kinda had ya figured for a green girl, but I wanted to check. Next time you come out here you can take the green cloak home with you if you want it. Not sure if it's what you're looking for or not, but it doesn't fit me and I don't wear green. Not sure why I made it...

**gasp**

Of COURSE I do. And... well, there it is. Golly!

**Fidgets with delight**

...and just so I can find the coffee next time:

Arda Recipe Book

[Raefindel]

I'm trying to get Cory to burn those CD's I mentioned, the harp & pennywhistle, but he has so little time and so many things waiting for his attention. I'm just not computer savvy enough to do it myself. Perhaps the little gymnast can do it now. He's in advanced computer class.

I see things all the time and think "Helen would like that!" and "when Helen get's here we can do this together!"

[Hilde Bracegirdle]

I think I've passed seven weeks straight.

Ah! I'm so glad to hear that you seem to be improving; we have someone here on week 4! Can't think of what might be causing it, but I'm afraid it might be dragons! Sorry, feeling a bit giddy, I've finally been unchained from my desk!

You are the best elf ever... If the gymnast is able, that's fine-- but no guilt-trips from the east, all right? How are the princess and the harper doing?

I would love to come, and see you, and wander under the firs, and see the mountains-- mountains!-- and see my dear auntie again. She's like my Bilbo-- I never thought of it that way before! She's definitely settled in her Rivendell!!

I've been listening to monkish music a lot. There's a lovely song by JMT that I sing every morning... I've even been doing vocal work again. Next time, we must have a list of songs to sing. You harmonize too well not to.
