'Eternity will be tasteless and very, very boring.'!! Bwahahaha! Good old Gandalf! Good grief, now I shall have to make sure I have mushrooms tomorrow after reading all those recipes.

Lovely, Werecat! I like what you did with the mushrooms. I am afraid I cannot appreciate them - too much time spent studying the Gür-carab, but it is neat to think that many cultures consider tham a delicacy. I like your Boromir too; very playful.

O...mmMMmmm... all those recipes *do* sound delicious. I have developed a yearning for mushrooms myself while reading this, so I think I'll go whip something up! My mouth is watering from Sam's description.... I think you characterized Aragorn perfectly in this. Very good job. Thank you for this lovely (delicious) story, and I hope your diet goes well!

Thanks Werecat! I love a good Fellowship story. I'm glad that Bill got a treat as well.

Acacea · 17 March 2005 · Chapter 1: Mushroom Lore

That was nice! I thought it made a really beautiful interlude. It has also made me hungry:o

Hey, Werecat! I, too, read this over at HASA and was thrilled to find out you wrote it (I did not guess as such since it was filled with canon characters.) I really enjoyed seeing the Fellowship enjoying a bit of comaraderie and quiet time to dispel their worries and weariness.

Very funny source of inspiration that I can totally empathize on *snicker* Heavens, now *I* want some mushrooms (which I do love as well). Wonderfully written; I particularly liked Aragorn's bittersweet reminiscence.

Christina · 17 March 2005 · Chapter 1: Mushroom Lore

This was great. A nice fill story that ties the Fellowship closer. And now I'm really looking forward to the portobello I bought! I think I will roast it with garlic and olive oil C

Lovely. Although Legolas is deprived - no mushrooms in Mirkwood? I should think they could set up a mushroom farm in the cellars that open onto the river. Bilbo would have seen the potential. Some hobbit should suggest it. Merry and Pippin make good foragers.

I read this at HASA but had to tell you again how much I enjoyed it. I thought this short scene showed so much about the Fellowship and the cultures they came from.

This was wonderful. I expected to see the hobbits discussing them and was pleasantly surprised when Boromir told his little story--that part was very well done. But I was just thrilled when Gimli chimed in. That was completely unexpected and in character. I love how a little discussion of mushrooms shows so much about the fellowship. Great job.

The Karenator · 17 March 2005 · Chapter 1: Mushroom Lore

I loved this scene. You captured the fun of the moment while giving us a look at the different customs of men, elves, dwarves and hobbits...and a wizard. Funny how shared food can bring us all together. I liked that everyone was willing to try preparations of the mushrooms other than what they were used to. I was pleased that Legolas didn't turn his nose up at the mushrooms considering his experience with 'death-hats'. The mushrooms of his home would make anyone think twice about consuming 'any' sort of mushroom. Cooperation of the Fellowship in such a simple thing showed us how open they were becoming with one another. Just delightful. Karen

I loved this! "On the Quest" fics, especially with the whole Fellowship bonding and sharing, are some of my favorite stories to read. I'm not wild about mushrooms myself, but the way you write about them makes me hungry!

Larner · 17 March 2005 · Chapter 1: Mushroom Lore

Oh, I love the subject and the writing. Well, well done. Felt I was sitting there with them, and missed only the smell of the mushrooms cooking.

Dreamflower · 16 March 2005 · Chapter 1: Mushroom Lore

Oh this is nice! I do love fics with food in them. This is almost a recipe fic! And my favorite part of the Quest--before Caradhras and Moria! What a lovely combination! Thank you!
