Of Hobbits and Holidays

I am still taking in this movie. We saw it last night and although I knew it was an end to an era that began in 6th grade for me, I was not prepared for THE END. My teacher read the Hobbit to us every day after lunch in the 6th grade and I soaked it in. I was an instant Tolkien fangirl and have devoured all the movies since our first one in 2001. I wasn’t ready for it to be over. No spoilers, but if you like the series, it is definitely worth seeing on the big screen.

Breakfast. How do you scramble your eggs? I throw them in a pan and then scramble them up. I used to crack the eggs into a bowl, scramble, pour in pan. I saw a lady make them like this in a diner in CO and started making mine the same way.

The best bowl of potato soup. Cream cheese instead of flour. Lots of cheese. Perfection.

Singing and dancing is a must while on Christmas vacation.

Drinking and dancing. I think the dancing is happening because of what’s in the cup of cheer…
