How to Make Chestnut Brownies

This is a project I finished a couple of days ago, but due to the emotional turmoil this weekend, I hadn't really had the heart to photograph it and put it online.

Eventually, I'll get around to taking these things and hiding them in trees in the park. The idea of the project really was to create anonymous art that would make other people smile when they discovered it but right now, my heart just isn't in it. :/

It's funny. I know some of them are actually really great but I just can't find any joy in them right now. For all the stuff I make and do, I can't really change anything that matters.

I'm not given to kicking over sandcastles even if they are made by fools.

In the Silmarillion, Ainur decreed that the dwarves should be destroyed but when the hammer was raised to smash them, they cowered and showed fear, proving they were capable of their own thought and not mindless slaves without purpose. It was decided they might yet have a part to play and they were spared. My lifeless golems would not run.

I know they mattered to me in some sense and that this world needs more magic and beauty, and I know the idea of making them to give them to others in this way was a good plan, but right now I just don't really feel it. It's hard to feel magical and beautiful when nothing I could do kept my little one from wasting away. :(

Oh I love it when you talk Tolkien to me. Tell me the difference between Sindarin elves and Quenya elves.

That's easy...
The Quenya elves have lions.
Only in Quenya.... (http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/kenya/)

Can a clever Dodge outwit a Ford Prefect?
