Král byl navrácen a já se tak jdu vrátit zase ke svému životu.
Který teď bude zahrnovat trochu více bolesti v kyčli, vzhledem k tomu všemu sezení :< Worth it tho.
#LoTRmarathon
Off to get my hobbit on 🤭
#lotrmarathon #lotr #hobbitlife
My bookclub and I are doing a #LOTRmarathon tomorrow with a full food and drink menu and I am bringing THE tastiest gourmet macaroni and cheese ever for dinner/supper.
Rumour is we’ll have lembas bread too 😍

This is my day today. A Lord of the Rings marathon. I’m in my comfies, and I have snackies. Let’s go. #lotrmarathon
A very busy day for me
#lotr #lotrmarathon
Thanks for hanging out. Gotta go see about a couple sleepy wizards. See you at the next #LOTRMarathon

Which if you pay attention to any of the story, it isn't There's joy and happiness at the end of course. But its more complicated than that, and happy endings come from a place and have costs. Which is the story Tolkien was telling.
Only the last ending delivers that. #LOTRMarathon
"For Frodo..."
And in the end. The last heroic battle charge after 11 or so hours isn't for glory or duty. It's not to become legendary or worthy of song. It has nothing to do with myths or heroes.
Because war does not make one great.
Fellowship does. #LOTRMarathon
If you weren't there in 2003, I can confirm that in theaters when Gandalf smacks Denethor as Denethor is yelling "flee flee for your lives!" The audiences cheered like Cap saying Avengers Assemble. #LOTRMarathon
Dinner
"Mushrooms!!"
"I don't usually hold much to foreign food" Always wondered how Sam's cooking changed after the journey
Hobbits are no stranger to mushrooms but a delicate layered pasta technique could have been something he learned in Elvish kitchens.
#LOTRMarathon
Denethor shows up in the Two Towers extended and sets the record for fastest time of "character intro to OH he's the worst" #LOTRMarathon
"I know Faramir's uses and they are few." YIKES
Perrin from Andor is a treat compared to this guy.
(Jon Noble though is an absolute treasure)
Afternoon Tea
Likely not often observed during the Fellowships long journeys. So to be cherished all the more in quiet times. Cookies are always appreciated, thick or thin.
"It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life." #LOTRMarathon
Among all the great performances in #LOTR - the best remains Bernard Hill as Theoden. No one has the same difficulty of range of emotions, intensity of performance, regal yet grounded stature. All of that while remaining a consistent singular presence and carry 2 stories #LOTRMarathon
Luncheon - onion soup with crusty bread.
A more luxurious version of the thin soup made on the road to Helms Deep. Back in a place like the Shire the luxuries of fresh bread and cheese return. The appreciation of a warm meal remains #LOTRMarathon
(Poured a little on my hand for accuracy)
"my captain my king" and "don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee" being like 3 min apart is ridiculous.
Two simultaneous emotional haymakers. #LOTRMarathon
No one is a better epitome of "became too important at work" / "hates being in charge of the group project" more than Aragorn. #LOTRMarathon
"All shall love me and despair" is the coolest line ever. #LOTRMarathon
Elevenses
Potato croquettes stuffed with soft cheese.
Sam missed potatoes on the journey. And so returning home to the Shire indulges in the soft comfort of home. Warm, gooey, simple. It makes telling the grim parts of the tale easier. #LOTRMarathon
One of the smarter inclusions of the extended editions is the first meeting of Boromir and Aragorn before the council. Giving us a chance to better see how Aragorn relates to other men and how he keeps himself apart from them.
Makes the Aragorn son of Arathorn moment resonate more. #LOTRMarathon
A second wizard approaches. #LOTRMarathon #InternSaga #cats
These films remain rather timeless. But the things that endures is how purely earnest every character is about their emotions, sense of duty, etc.
When Frodo closes his hand over the Ring and says "what must I do" it's as perfect a "call to adventure" as there's even been. #LOTRMarathon
Can't have an #LOTRMarathon without an appearance from a wizard. (No, he wasn't late) #InternLando #cats
Rolled Icelandic pancakes and syrup
Breakfast. Simple rolled pancakes in the Icelandic style, sprinkled with a bit of sugar (or apple syrup if feeling fancy).
Likely something the horsemen of Rohan might have made and carried on their travels. #LOTRMarathon
No one has ever been happier than Gandalf being told he's a disturber of the peace in the Shire. #LOTRMarathon
Work days have been endless. Finally with a free weekend there's really only one true way to relax.
7 courses. 12 hours. #LOTRMarathon
I forgot we needed to “break out the ale!!”
This man is thirsty! #LOTRMarathon
Just finished lunch, and getting ready for afternoon tea. AKA The Fifth Course #LOTRMarathon
“Alas, that these evil days should be mine. The young perish and the old linger. That I should live to see that last days of my house...No parent should have to bury their child.”

Picture of foods served during the marathon. Upper photo, a scone split in two. One half with butter & the other with strawberry jam. Bottom left, scotch egg split in half. Bottom right, plate with lamb, broccoli & apple tart.
Enjoying a day with a #LOTRmarathon extended edition to celebrate a friend turning 33. Part of the celebration included all the #hobbitmeals. I got to try a #scotchegg with no pork! The scones were my favorite.
