That menu sounds out of this world! This may be the first time I've bookmarked a fic into my 'recipes' folder. I believe I've found my Thanksgiving menu for this year, so thank you. *smile*
This was a sweet story. I loved that some of the hobbit customs were adopted by Gondor (after all those four did for ME their customs *should* be honored by others) and that Mag slipped and called Faramir "darling boy." Loved it! Now off to read some of your other works!

Author Reply: Aw, thank you! I really enjoyed researching and writing this little story, and I'm thrilled to think you might add some of those recipes to your holiday meal. Thank you so much for reading and taking the time to comment.

That's a fantastic menu - as long az I don't have to eat it. I think I'll never be worthy to dine in the presence of Karoli Baba the Wise.

Author Reply: Hee - I'd eat it in a heartbeat. I just don't want to ever be expected to cook it. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Definitely a challenge, and one that Mag has met marvelously! Hurrah for good sense in a cook's body!

Author Reply: Ah, Mag. What would they do without her?

Thanks, as always, for reading and commenting!

Ooh, that carrot soup sounds good. And I love stuffed grape leaves.

I would have made a pig out of myself at that banquet, and I'm not even a vegan.

Author Reply: I got very hungry myself working on that menu! It made it very difficult for me to eat my own normal boring food. Thank you for reading and commenting!

Still adorable after the second time I read it, ditto the third. You get points from me just for the image of Faramir sitting down to eat elevensies with Aragorn; but the rest is delightful as well. Mag can still come through for her darling boy-er-Lord Steward.

Author Reply: Thanks for rereading, Raksha! It was great fun to look at this story again today, even if it did make me very hungry, hee!
