Laura changes her mind about Tom Bombadil, the Hobbits kill time doing naked cartwheels and Pat chokes on a donut. This week we discuss Chapter 8, "Fog on the Barrow-Downs", from The Fellowship of the Ring.
Today's "Food For Thought": A Donut Diorama of the Downs
There is no recipe for this one. Combine donuts and various candies to represent the Barrow-Downs and our hobbit heroes as they need rescuing yet again. Here's what I used:
Chocolate glazed donuts for the hills
Green buttercream to glue everything together and a frosting tip to make grass
Cookies n cream bars for the stones
Gummy bears as hobbits
Pocky as the sword across their necks
Nerds as the treasure
