A Holiday Feast  by Larner 5 Review(s)
SoledadReviewed Chapter: 6 on 12/7/2014
Apparently, Gandalf has a healthy appetite, too. *g*

Author Reply: Well, a Man-sized wash basin would hold a feast by Hobbit standards, I'd think. (Grinning in return.) This was written in memory of my husband, whose fruit salads seemed to grow larger and larger by the year for reasons we never understood.

Snowing food and raining drink indeed!

That is promising to be the grandest feast of all!

And I like the idea that Bilbo is saving the precious chocolate for Frodo and himself as a special treat when the feast is over.

Author Reply: Oh, but I so agree. And Bilbo would want to share the best with Frodo, I think. Thanks so, Andrea, and good to hear from you!

I hope I'm invited to this feast!

Author Reply: We all are, I think, for all it's intended for the residents of the region surrounding the Hill and their personal guests.

I'm definitely inviting myself over and I will gird myself properly to battle Freddy for a share of the spoils. :)

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: If Freddy shows up, I suspect you may have to contest him for at least some of his favorites. Heh! Thanks so, Antane!

O my goodness Larner, that sounds like one big fruit salad! I wonder what all they put in it...apples, blueberries, cherries...hmm, very alphabetical! :)

Author Reply: My husband always swore he'd not make as big of a fruit salad as he had the year before, but it seemed to grow larger year by year instead. At the last Christmas dinner we had with him it filled my Wexford pattern punch bowl, which is enormous! And it's fun making these stories alphabetical! Heh!
