Hobbit Holidays

[shirebound]

It's November, and time for another round of Hobbit Holidays! What a wonderful Halloween our hobbits enjoyed, thanks to all of you. (And my thanks to i_o_r_h_a_e_l for the reminder to make this November post! RL has been unbelievably busy.)

October brought us 26(!) stories and three lovely picspams, which are archived in 'memories'. We welcome drabbles, ficlets, stories, poetry, pics, or art -- old or new -- revolving around holidays celebrated or encountered by hobbits. All genres and ratings are permissible; therefore, posts should be clearly marked, and all stories and/or art must be under an lj-cut tag.

Now we come to... Thanksgiving, the American version or otherwise. How would hobbits celebrate a time of giving thanks? Do villages such as Hobbiton celebrate differently than larger regions such as Buckland? Do less well-off families have different things for which to be grateful than their more well-to-do neighbors? Do the hobbits have stories or traditions to tell their fellow Travellers along the Quest, or at journey's end? Do the hobbits celebrate Thanksgiving after they arrive in Rivendell? What do wee!hobbits think about, contribute, or experience during an autumnal festival or harvest feast?

And of course there's also Remembrance, or Veteran's Day -- a time to remember those who served to protect the freedom of their country or loved ones.

So dig up old stories, poems, etc., or think about new ones! And if any LOTR action figures happen to organize themselves a feast or celebration, be sure to snap a picture...

Hi all!

Just want to confirm with the mod that we can start with a new theme for this month. It's almost Thanksgivings, right? I don't celebrate it, but what about hobbits?

:D

Thanks!
