Happy Hobbit Day!

Hello again everyone! :) I wasn't expecting another post this soon either, but here it is for you to enjoy!
Today is a wonderful day for the whole Lord of the Rings fandom. It's September the 22nd, the birthday of Bilbo and Frodo Baggins! I know that many fans will be celebrating today, in their own ways. If you want to participate too, here are some great ideas that I hear people are doing:
  1. Host a party! Invite all of your friends and family, play hobbit games, serve a lot of Shire-like food, and give out mathoms! (small presents that Hobbits give at birthday parties.)
  2. Dress up! Or don't, depending if you want to look like a hobbit, or if you want to look like a hobbit with no shoes.
  3. Bake! Hobbits love food. So why not make Bilbo a cake? (No one says you have to share it afterwards, by the way!)
  4.  Have a Movie Marathon! This is a popular choice, because the very scene of Bilbo's and Frodo's birthday is portrayed in The Fellowship of the Ring. All you have to do is watch all the movie that came out so far (both LotR AND The Hobbit), and cry because Desolation of Smaug isn't out yet. 
This should be enough to get you all started! :) How are you all going to celebrate? Any more ideas? I don't think I'm going to do anything exotic, maybe walk around barefoot and in a hobbit-like dress - that's probably it.
Anyway, see you all soon! :D
Happy Birthday Bilbo and Frodo! :)

Fellowship of the Wordsmiths

I found a great website not too long ago called "Fellowship of the Wordsmiths". It has all you need to know about Elvish (Quenya, Sindarin, e.t.c.) and the grammar and dictionaries. If anyone is interested in learning the wonderful and mystical language of the elves created by John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, this is one of the best places to go. Here is the link.
That's about it. Tell me what you think of it! Namárië!
p.s. you can check what 'namárië' means in their dictionary, or you can guess. It's not that hard judging that this is the end of the post!
