Kassandros Rohan Nov 20 2012, 9:41pm Views: 1683 Which Middle Earth people would you most like to have a feast with? From the movies and trailers, we've gotten at least a look at the food of all these people. And then there's the books. So in the spirit of Thanksgiving, which is coming up in a couple days in America, which people would you most like to have a meal with? all we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us...

Ataahua Forum Admin / Moderator Nov 20 2012, 10:12pm Views: 901 It's a party at Meduseld! I don't think the Elves would take to dancing on the tables. Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..." Dwarves: "Pretty rings..." Men: "Pretty rings..." Sauron: "Mine's better." "Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

Xanaseb Tol Eressea Nov 21 2012, 1:02pm Views: 869 It would have been good to have at least an 'other' option :P...  ... maybe someone'd like to party out with orcs ;) 'Looks like meat's back on the menu boys!!!' but seriously, there's a lot of people that could be included in the list hehe --I'm a victim of Bifurcation-- __________________________________________ Join us over at Barliman's chat all day, any day! __________________________________________

Annael Immortal Nov 21 2012, 2:44pm Views: 848 and you know I love dancing on tables so I'd be right there with you, Ataahua (not the first time I've thought that a night on the town with you would be awesome fun) The way we imagine our lives is the way we are going to go on living our lives. - James Hillman, Healing Fiction * * * * * * * * * * NARF and member of Deplorable Cultus since 1967

Sam20 Lorien Nov 21 2012, 4:48pm Views: 862 Feast Actually I would like to feast with all these peoples that are given as options above! To choose but one, it was hard but it had to be narrowed down to the Elves and the Rohirrim. My vote was finally for the people of Rohan and their merry feats with good food, music, and ale!

Faenoriel Tol Eressea Nov 21 2012, 7:47pm Views: 837 Hobbits wouldn't look down upon my endless appetite Guys always get to eat as much as they want, but when I have healty appetite for delicious food it's off putting. If we ever learned anything from Gone with the Wind, it's that girls eat like birds! But every word you say today Gets twisted 'round some other way And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied

Thorins_apprentice Rohan Nov 23 2012, 1:45pm Views: 851 Dwarves At least there's lots of food,singing and beer involved.I'd love to try to drink a Dwarf, under the table and listen to great epic battles, they've been in.Dwarves, are most hardy folk after all and they travel far, that is until they turned to greed and stayed underground. We are more connected than ever before, more able to spread our ideas and beliefs, our anger and fears. As we exercise the right to advocate our views, and as we animate our supporters, we must all assume responsibility for our words and actions before they enter a vast echo chamber and reach those both serious and delirious, connected and unhinged.

Ring-Bearer Rivendell Nov 24 2012, 3:06am Views: 843 Hobbits, of course! They know how to eat well, but we might not be having just one Thanksgiving meal, nor many leftovers... 'What are we holding on to, Sam?' 'There's good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for!' 'I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you!'

Delrond Rohan Nov 26 2012, 1:26pm Views: 838 An eclectic group. Finrod, Folgolfin, Turin, Hurin, Beren, Melian, Gandalf, Elros, Maglor, Galadriel and Cirdan. I have some questions for each of you! A few harmless flakes working together can unleash an avalanche of destruction.

julianne Registered User Nov 27 2012, 3:42pm Views: 792 Rohirrim and Hobbit party! And whatever happens in Meduseld, stays in Meduseld!

Aitieuriskon Lorien Nov 28 2012, 2:56am Views: 802 The Silvan elves The elves of Thranduil's kingdom seem to have known how to throw a party! The only problem would be trying not to end up like the dwarves and get accused of "molesting" them and thrown in an elf-prison. This raises the question of how exactly one would show up at a woodland feast without prompting a disappearing act... "After all, I believe that legends and myths are largely made of 'truth', and indeed present aspects of it that can only be received in this mode; and long ago certain truths and modes of this kind were discovered and must always reappear." Professor Tolkien, 1951

Longbottom Leaf Lorien Nov 28 2012, 8:49pm Views: 743 I'd have to say Hobbits... Lots of great food and several meals, tons of Ale, and much merriment!...Plus there's plenty of leaf to go around! That's the clincher for me! Although I'd very much like to endulge in some of that Dorwinion wine I think I'd feel a little out of place amongst elves and much more comfortable around Hobbits. The finest weed in the southfarthing!

Ardamírë Valinor Nov 29 2012, 12:01am Views: 791 Can I feast with them all before deciding? ;-)//   "...and his first memory of Middle-earth was the green stone above her breast as she sang above his cradle while Gondolin was still in flower." -Unfinished Tales

Tim Tol Eressea Dec 2 2012, 4:15am Views: 789 The Hobbits of course! People that in love with eating gotta know how to feast! -Tim came by. Tim! If you had heard only a quarter of what I have heard about him, and I have only heard very little of all there is to hear, you would be prepared for any sort of remarkable tale.

tolkiennerd Lorien Dec 15 2012, 3:09am Views: 1474 Dwarves because I like meat more then 'green food' and could have won that belching contest.
