Sep. 20th, 2004 10:58 pmTaking Care of Samwise
Rosie’d always known that Sam had a streak of mule as wide as his father’s, but he’d come back more stubborn than he’d gone away; planting trees across the Shire when every hobbit with sense had hunkered down to wait out the lean times by a warm fireplace. It was all she could do to get him to sit down to a meal, and seconds he wouldn’t take, not if others went without.
“But you look hungry, Sam,” she’d protest each time.
“Not hungry enough for lembas yet,” he’d reply, and nod to Mr. Frodo with a slow, secret smile.

It's 6.45 a.m. this time, and again I had no coffee, and it's still impressing.
