*laughs out loud* Poor Elrohir! Another - or perhaps the first, chronologically speaking - victim of Bilbo's kitchen, even if in an unexpected manner. This also makes me curious what elves do about broken or cracked teeth.

Yes, poor Elrohir - again. He's actually the only victim of Bilbo's kitchen!
I had a discussion on another site about elves' broken teeth. We decided they must re-grow, or Elrohir would have a gappy smile for a very long time.

It's probably easier to follow the beginning of the recipe book over here than going all backwards at tolkien_weekly. ;)
I so can picture this scene in my head, and of course the challenges Bilbo faces in an elven-equipped kitchen. These little glimpses in Bilbo's past life and beloved pass-times are lovely.

Poor Bilbo - he'd have to stand on something to be able to see over the work tops! It was fun to imagine him pottering about, making things for his elvish friends.

Ouch! Somehow I don't think that elves have dentists...

At least Elrond's a healer, so he should be able to do something :)

Quite lucky, indeed!
*grin*
Thanks for a pleasant weekend early morning read.
Author's reply
Hmm - lucky for whom? Not Elrohir, that's for sure!

*chortle*
I can just hear Bilbo muttering under his breath. It doesn't surprise me at all that it isn't him, but an innocent bystander that risks the headache...

Poor Elrohir! If Bilbo had only asked for help to reach those high shelves ...
