As I'm sure some of you know, September 22nd is a special day for Middle Earth fans. Because it's Bilbo and Frodo's birthday in the books, it's become known as Hobbit Day.“Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?”
So of course we had to have a Second Breakfast to celebrate. (We celebrated on the 20th, though - because that was a Saturday. Close enough?)
My brother, Caleb, and I invited some friends (who are as crazy about Lord of the Rings as we are) over to help us eat up all the food. We had a blast.
“My dear Frodo!’ exclaimed Gandalf. ‘Hobbits really are amazing creatures, as I have said before. You can learn all that there is to know about their ways in a month, and yet after a hundred years they can still surprise you at a pinch.”
Our Menu:
- Sausages
- Breakfast Poh-Tay-Toes
- Fried Eggs
- Scones
- Seed Cake
- Strawberry Jam Muffins
- Hot Chocolate
Celebrating Hobbit Day by eating an extra breakfast? I think it should become an annual thing.
Hope you enjoyed this! Fictional Feasts are some of my favorite posts to make. Thank you all for your suggestions on other foods from books/movies to make...it's really helpful. So keep em' coming :)

Awww! I've always wanted to celebrate Hobbit Day, it looks ever so much fun to get together with friends and eat Hobbit-y food. I'm already planning on doing it next year! I will! :)
ReplyDeleteYou should! It's so fun. :)
DeleteOh my gosh, this looks so fun! Wow! Did you make those nametags? I'm seriously thinking of doing something like this with my best friend. Our birthdays are just a couple days apart so I thought it would be awesome to have a Hobbit birthday party some day.(-:
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Caleb made the nametags, actually. Aren't they cute? And a Hobbit birthday would be the COOLEST thing ever!
DeleteThis is SO awesome!! Ahh I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteThis looks simply superb!! I wish my family was into LOTR as much as I was!! Now I can't decide what do do for my birthday! Downton Abbey, Jane Austen, Harry Potter or LOTR? :D

Thanks! Those are all great ideas for birthday themes...ohhh now I want to have a Jane Austen birthday! :)
DeleteOh I love how you do these! DELICIOUS. Except, of course, it makes me freakishly hungry. *covets bread and poy-tay-toes and jam* HOBBITS.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS <3 Come visit and we shall have second breakfast!
DeleteSAUSAGES
ReplyDelete(it took me four tries to get that word right, and then I only managed it by copying your spelling. this is such a problem.)
that looks delicious. and beautiful. and amazing. and wowwwwwww I think I need to move into your attic and just eat your food all the time and hide in your suitcases when you go on trips. seriously.
Sausages is a very hard word. You are very welcome to live in my attic but it's dark and spider-y.
DeleteOh, man......I wish my brothers weren't pretentious teenagers. They like LOTR, but they would rather die than have a second breakfast. LOL This looks so much fun. Did you have elevensies?
ReplyDeleteYeaaaah, brothers can be like that. Their loss! Nope, we didn't have elevensies...we couldn't possibly eat any more food after that. Hehe!
DeleteThanks for commenting, Joanna!
