earth berms are easy

As I was fixing my Hobbit breakfast (four waffles, cream cheese, banana, and tea), I thought once again about Bag End. Each time I see the Bag End scenes from Fellowship of the Rings, I think, “I want to live there.” Today, I thought, “Has anyone tried to build a house like that?”

The answer, sayeth Google, is yes. And yes. Oh my, yes. Just thought I’d share.

UPDATE: If your budget is more modest, perhaps a Bag End dollhouse would be more manageable.

Karen points out a site for the “Utilikilt Workman’s Kilt”:https://secure.utilikilts.com/catalog-workman-index.htm complete with pockets and hammer loop. Apparently for an extra $25 you can get one with a “Beer Gut Cut”. Mm hmm. I have no response to that.

The company’s motto is, “We sell freedom!” Mm hmm.
