It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule. #Tolkien

Happy #HobbitDay to all!
On 22 September: Bilbo and Frodo Baggins were born. As Ring-bearers, born 78 years apart, their birthdays were honoured as Cormarë, and Tolkien societies worldwide continue to commemorate. How will you celebrate? #Tolkien #BookSky

This might be a hot take but asking a Tolkien fan's opinion on The Rings of Power should be a first-date question! You can learn like 75% of what you need to know about a person by the way they respond...

Michael’s is American owned. I get most of my crafting supplies there since it’s the only game in town.
Can anyone suggest Canadian-owned stores (online or Ottawa area) where I can pick up my embroidery supplies going forward?
