Virgil is quoted as saying that, “Come what may all bad fortune is over come by endurance!”

It’s March 14!! And I wanted to celebrate the day with a pie from the Shire….
A quick Google, LOTR pie, found the Hobbits meal at the Prancing Poney
Tolkien says that the hobbits ate hot soup, cold meats, a blackberry tart, fresh bread, butter and cheese.
Well, I didn’t have any Blackberrys and I don’t know how to make a tart SO I decided on Aunt Bonnie’s Bluebery cobbler.
But I didn’t have have any heavy cream SO I used extra butter!!
After the pie had cooked long enough I turned the oven to broil to brown the top….well with the extra butter acted like it had been exposed to the fires of Mordor and the buttery crust quickly blackened, smokin, Jan yelling DAVID!!
SO, I scraped the crust off and garnished the pie with extra berries and it is delicious!!
SO to going back to the opening lines Endurance and not quitting will over come much.
SO, why tell all of this..especially in such a lengthy manner….well it all goes round in circles and is long enough to warrant seconds!!
Happy PI Day!!
Not sure how the blue berries will survive this cold snap!!
Humming
But cold March made me shiver
With every paper I’d deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn’t take one more step
The day the blueberries died…
