We don’t need the word spreading and crowds coming to look at the novelty of a Man in our kitchen! This is hardly Bag End, after all. *grins* One doesn't need to be the object of *that* type of gossip, does one? This is coming together nicely. :) Author Reply: *grin* I can just imagine curious hobbits coming round to see such a novelty as a Man in Eglantine's kitchen, considering how Men are something of a rarity in the Tookland. Thanks! | |

I just love Eglantine's bustling efficiency! She really does have things in hand as much as is possible! And I can just imagine the look on Bilbo's face when he gets the Tooks' letter! Author Reply: Well, she's the wife of a farmer who has "lands" to farm, according to something Pippin says on the Quest, so she must have to manage bed and board for a number of hired hobbits, I should think. "Bustling efficiency," what a nice term to describe her! (I'm just wondering how to break it to Paladin and Eglantine that their little six-year-old son (as he was, two years previous) walked part-way to Bag End with only a sheepdog for company...) | |
