Hi there,

I'm jumping at the opportunity to gab a little about yesterday evening's perfect event. Mr. Ironhold Primer and I, his beloved missus, planned to watch "The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring" together the first time. Of course we both had seen this movie before, but in my case the last time was 5 years ago (!!), and I had just seen it twice in my life. Nevertheless it had great impact on me back then, and my shoreless love for elves just increased at that time. Looking forward to it that much, last night had to be very atmospheric to celebrate the special feeling of myth and magic.
We went to a big local superstore and bought some food. First we just wanted to satisfy hunger, but then we started to buy fitting things to emphasise the vibe. We bought baps because we chose to have a cold meal while watching on the bed. As a filling we bought Danish cream cheese with chives, because the use of herbs in our meal seemed so mediaeval. In addition to that, we picked Esrom, that's a cheese traditionally made in a friary in Denmark according to an old recipe. As a snack while watching this long movie (the extended edition lasts 219 minutes, wow) we had small air-dried salamis with walnuts (how ethnic, jeez) and some kind of salted nibbles. We drank some cold herbal tea made of peppermint and spring herbs, my lovey had a cellar beer from a brewery named "Mönchshof" an I myself a bottle of herbal lemonade. Just like a kind of elvish potion, only the mystic vial was missing.
Equipped with this true fantasy-lover food stuff we enjoyed a great time together cuddled up to each other, eating, chatting and being engrossed by the amazing movie. I just loved it! Although I'm always so afraid of these nauseous orcs, and all the scary scenes... I can't wait to see "The Two Towers" as extended edition. Perhaps already this week, or the next weekend. I'm looking forward to it. Like the plot is intensifying in the movie, the enchantment grows, too.
