Title: The Slothful Life Author: Larner Characters: Lalia Took, Hobbits Rating: G Book/Source: The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien Disclaimer: Lalia is Tolkien’s, but these words are mine.
We had a clearer day today after yesterday's rain and wind. And am glad you can appreciate Cook's point of view. I suspect Lalia wasn't the most pleasant Mistress to have worked under.
Yes, being the obese woman she was, I suspect that Lalia wasn't held in the highest of regard by others, who must have resented her growing inability and unwillingness to lend a hand to the work needed to see the place running well. Thanks so, Clodia.

But I can certainly see Cook's point - and I like the slight hint of what might be to come in that last line.
