Why this must be read:
Based on my recommendations to date, it is fairly obvious that I prefer long, epic pieces of fanfic in this fandom. But sometimes you just want a break from it all and this little gem of a story is just that sort of break from the high tragedy that comprises much of Middle-Earth. Appropriately enough, this is a story of the Shire. It's actually a story that we know already, both from the books and from the movies... a gentle, throw-away, character-building story. But in this little gem, it is told from another perspective.

A Brandybuck and a Took steal some mushrooms from Bamfurlong, and a Shirriff tells the story. This is just so quintessentially hobbitish!
