The Little Hobbit Lass That Didn’t Like Mushrooms

“No, thank you,” said the-little-hobbit-lass-that-didn’t-like-mushrooms to Gammer Noakes. “I don’t like mushrooms.”

“Don’t like mushrooms?” said Gammer Noakes. “Whoever heard of a hobbit that didn’t like mushrooms?”

But the little-hobbit-lass didn’t like mushrooms, and while nearly everyone thought this was strange, her little-hobbit-brother didn’t, because he got more mushrooms.

One day, merchants from the south came to Sarn Ford. The little-hobbit-lass-who-didn’t-like-mushroom’s father went to the market there, and came home with a soft knobbly ball that smelled of newly-ploughed earth and autumn rain, and tasted of strange, wonderful lands. And the-little-hobbit-lass-that-didn’t-like-mushrooms discovered that she did like some mushrooms after all.

I like this. I wonder who the little-hobbit-lass is?

I suspect she might have short red hair, wear a lot of black, and also wear glasses! ;-)
