I can't imagine anything a Hobbit dreads worse than famine. This story must have come from Pippin's adventures!

Yes - the tiny grain at the centre of this would indeed have been Pippin in Minas Tirith. it is fun taking odd moments and twisting them around so that the hobbits come to a sticky end!

Only one meal a day! That's famine indeed for a hobbit!

I can just see the little hobbit-lings gasping in utter horror like when Bilbo was talking about the trolls. :) These are very fun.

Imagine - one meal a day and only uninspiring cheese... I'm so glad you are enjoying these cautionary tales!

Starvation rations - it's a wonder he even had the energy to put the armour on, really!

His being able to put armour on astounded me!

This is really cute and I can really see how it may be a bedtime moral story. Good job!!

Thank you so much. I really think I must put them together in a little book when I've finished!
