But were they the home or visiting team?

Last night I dreamed that I was watching a new extended version of Return of the King in which Frodo and Sam had to sneak past a Red Sox game on their way to Mount Doom.

Wish I could remember who the orcs were cheering for.

When I spent time with my family in Maine, my brother and I started spinning off Lord of the rings T-shirts and bumper stickers:
I climbed Mount Doom and all I got was this lousy T-shirt
I Heart My Mûmak!
I died at Healms Deep
Honk for Orc rights...
(We were sleep deprived and waiting at a cafe for sticky buns... prime conditions:-)

What are sticky buns? Do you have a recipe?>

Like cinamon rolls, except instead of sugar frosting they're covered in sugar-and-butter caramel and pecans. Clarksburg used to make really good ones.

Recipe... I've made them with my sister, from a fudged recipe in one of my mom's cookbooks. The basic version is, melt butter and brown sugar in a square pan (9x9). You make a sweet yeast dough (white flour, yeast, milk, butter, eggs, sugar... a schnecken dough or something like that.) Let it rise and roll it out, spread with cinamon sugar (and raisins if you like them), roll it up into a cylander and cut it into nine sections. Arrange them in the pan and let them rise. Then you bake the whole thing and invert it like an upside down cake, and you've got caramel all over your fingers.

Proportions and such... I'll have to burrow for those.
