013 - Reuniting With Dear Friends in "Many Meetings"

Gandalf is back, Chris confuses Snow White for Lord of the Rings and Pat's coffee mentality is problematic. This week we discuss book 2, chapter 1, "Many Meetings", from The Fellowship of the Ring. 

Today's "Food For Thought": Elven Tea Blooms

Blooming tea or flowering tea feels super fancy and like something high elves would serve at a feast. If you've never heard of it, it's a small dried ball of usually herbal tea ingredients that expand into a lovely flower shape when steeped in hot water. My only complaint is that they float, so you don't get the full effect!

You can purchase a glass teapot and dried tea balls online. They make great holiday gifts 🙂

Welcome to the Fool of a Took Podcast — the show where deep lore meets even deeper nonsense! Here's the catch - 2 of the 4 hosts have never read the books before! Join Chris, RJ, Pat and Laura as they dive headfirst into the world of Tolkien.

With chapter snacks, fresh grog, and plenty of tongue wagging, Fool of a Took Podcast is like sitting in a pub in Bree, if everyone in the pub had ADHD and a microphone.
