How many dwarves "were able to stand firmly" after Bilbo rescued them from the spiders in Mirkwood?

Gandalf, Elrond, Glorfindel, Erestor, Galdor, Legolas, Aragorn, Boromir, Gloin, Gimli, Bilbo, Frodo, Samwise. But the title of the thread is "There and Back Again", which is the subtitle to The Hobbit. Therefore it's still your turn to come up with a question from The Hobbit.

When the Trolls caught the Dwarves in the woods between Bree and Rivendell.
And When the armies of the Wood Elves and Lakemen were camped out below the Lonely Mountain and Bilbo brought down the Arkenstone.

"When the Trolls caught the Dwarves in the woods between Bree and Rivendell" is right.

Additionally, Gandalf 'disappeared' and reappeared in the goblin cave to cause a great fire that sent out white sparks among all the goblins. As the Great Goblin stands dumbfounded, Glamdring appears and takes off his head. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

He actually "appeared suddenly, and stood alone, with arms uplifted between the advancing dwarves and the ranks awaiting them." This would be after Bilbo had taken Thranduil/Bard the Arkenstone, when the dwarves attack while Bard and his men are debating. Gandalf stops them just in time to see the goblins/wargs who were following Dain and his men.

I *think* these are the only occurrences.

"One question at a time - and none till after supper! I haven't had a bite since breakfast."

Who said this, and what did he eat afterwards?

Gandalf said it in Beorn's house to Bilbo and the dwarves. Afterwards he ate two whole loaves with honey, butter and cream and washed it down with mead.
