"As near as I can tell, it's the first day of Yule Week," he said, "And it's traditional to have a toast of red wine to welcome in the Yule."
I like this tradition. :)

the pop of the cork summoned Fíli and Kíli from the kitchen as if by magic
:LOL

"Is this your room?" Fíli hollered from that direction. "It's nice and big. We'll just drop Uncle Thorin's things off there, he can sleep on the floor."
Awesome idea!. :)

What had he been thinking? The Shire was no place for dwarves, and having them as guests would only harm Bilbo's standing in this insular, cozy world. They should leave as soon as possible, no matter what the condition of the roads--Bilbo wouldn't want to travel with them anymore, not now that he was home again, where it was warm and safe and comfortable--
O-ow, I’m sure Thorin was wrong about Bilbo not wanting to travel with them!

"The Yule Ball in Tookland is one of the biggest social events of the year," Bilbo said. "And we're all invited!"
YAY! :D

"Oh dear, you have no waistcoats! We must get you to the tailor--right away, right away, no time to lose! You need waistcoats and braces and maybe a nice cravat--" .
Oh my gosh :D Let the preparations begin. :)

Thorin couldn't help but realize that he liked the idea much more than he had ever expected to.
Perfect! :D

I loved it! Such an awesome chapter! Loved all the hobbits welcoming Bilbo back home and then even inviting the dwarves to spent the Yule Week with them. YAY for the bal (can’t wait ro read more about it. :))
Oh and the red wine brought me such amazing memories - it totally made my day, thank you!

I like this tradition. :)

Red wine with friends in an evening is the best way to feel happy and content! :D Happy happy memories...

O-ow, I’m sure Thorin was wrong about Bilbo not wanting to travel with them!

He's been wrong about it consistently for a month or two now, but he is a stubborn, stubborn dwarf! :D

Writing Yule Week was what I did all November, and it got pretty long, but I just wanted to show all the fun times so much! It made me happy every time, so I'm REALLY looking forward to sharing...
