Oh goodness! Gandalf is certainly being forthcoming with these two!

And I love Bilbo's attitude about that ring!

Author Reply: Some suggest that Gandalf is a little too relaxed around certain hobbits.

It is because of the gifting of the Valar that people give each other gifts at Yule.

What a lovely origin tale for Yule! I never tire of Gandalf interacting with his beloved hobbits.

Author Reply: Thank you, Shirebound. It was a pleasant tale to write, even though it was written in the heat of Summer. I expect Yule itself to be published on the Fourth of July.

It is so nice to see Frodo learning his family history in this way. So--Drogo built a "contraption" to take himself and Primula out on the river, did he? Fascinating! And we have a bit of a romance going on! Yay!

Frodo is getting a wonderful education, and so are we. It's lovely to learn so much about the details of Shire life.

Definitely looking forward to the next bit. Well done thus far!

Yeowtch, red streaks *are* a bad sign.. blood poisoning. *wince* I sense a little h/c on the way...

Yeowtch, poor Frodo! It's so good at least Bilbo is bothering to give him the time of day!

I do hope Frodo's solo doesn't cause hard feelings among the other members of the chorale, and it appears he has his first admirer! Excellent!

How lovely. Someone like Frodo needs to feel valued and confident about something, and music sounds like a wonderful way to do that.

Ah--the intricacies of Hobbit social skills are introduced. Poor lad--having this all thrust upon him like this! But he'll do quite well, of course! Heh!

Wish I could have been there for the fireworks.
