Taking 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.

Wonderful. Again one of your legendary last lines.

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

I'll bet Sam and Frodo shared a LOT of secret looks after the Quest ... they probably didn't have to communicate verbally at all anymore.

Just adding to the oohs and aahs--I think I've become an addict ;)

Lovely . . . keep writing for goodness sake!

Oh, no not Lembas. I wonder if they (Sam and Frodo) ever mentioned to the Fellowship, or especially Legolas how much they tolerated it, but in their opinion would never like to see it again.
