Today is Sept. 22,  the birthday of 2 very famous hobbits. ( also known as Hobbit Day)
Happy birthday Bilbo and Frodo!

Quote of the day:

" My dear Bagginses and Bofins, Tooks, and Brandybucks, Grubbs, Chubbs, Hornblowers, Bolgers, Bracegirdles, and Proudfoots. Today is my 111 birthday! But alas 111 years is far to short a time to live amongst such excellent and  admirable hobbits. I don't know half of you as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half of what you deserve. I, uh, have things to do. I regret to announce that this is the end. I am going now, I bid you all a very fond farewell. " - Bilbo Baggins

Video of the day: How to make a hobbit house cake.

Tip of the day:
Throw your own Hobbit Day party, invite your friends, and have fun celebrating hobbit day!
Note: it would be even more fun if you, your friends, ect, come to the party dressed up in middle earth inspired costumes. 😊

Middle Earth fun fact:

There is a kind of snails named Smegol in New Zealand, and
a street in the Netherlands is named after Gandalf.

Question of the day:
Which version of Bilbo's birthday party do you like better? The book, or the movie?



Here is the music played at Bilbo's birthday party in the LOTR movie 😊

Have a Happy Hobbit Day everyone! - Isilwen
