What Do hobbits eat?

3/30/2016

11 Comments

 
A friend of mind posted this wonderful article about Hobbit food on face-book: http://oakden.co.uk/tea-in-the-hobbit/  The amazingly gifted illustrator of John Ronald's Dragons, Eliza Wheeler,  has a Hobbit party every year that she makes Hobbit food for.  Perhaps this true love for all things Hobbit  explains why she seems to have read my mind in composing the pictures for the book.
​
My favorite thing in this article is the explanation of the distinction between high and low tea.  I will definitely use this article next time I take students to Oxford and will perhaps give extra points for participation in both a high and a low tea.

I'm sorry that the recipes are all in UK measurements.  They look quite old fashioned and complicated, just the sort of thing to make a huge mess in the kitchen, which i secretly like doing.   I have not yet tried any of them out, but when I do I will write a post about it and include pictures of my creations.I may try some of them out on my next group of Oxford students.  I stole the photo below from food.com.  It is a photo of Mrs. Beeton's Seed Cake.  Mine, when I make it, will be much less artful.

Hobbits are the fictional and diminutive people who were firstly introduced in the novels. Slow and steady they were getting popular in the films and serials because of their good roles. The food they use to eat is very unique and is not easy to find.

Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's hard to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appeal. I must say that you've done a very good job with this. Additionally, the blog loads super quick for me on Safari. Outstanding Blog

An impressive share, I just given this onto a colleague who was doing a little analysis on this. And he in fact bought me breakfast because I found it for him.. smile. So let me reword that: Thnx for the treat! But yeah Thnkx for spending the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love reading more on this topic. If possible, as you become expertise, would you mind updating your blog with more details? It is highly helpful for me. Big thumb up for this blog post!
There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment?s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
