\nWelcome to this week’s Writerly Bundle! A post where I hope to inspire you with three of the world’s greatest things: music, words, and tea. <\/span><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nHappy Easter, everyone, and happy very late Saint Patrick’s Day! <\/span>Since St. Patrick’s Day has not long ago passed, I thought this post would be fun to have a<\/span><\/span> Tolkien-Style merry-making theme.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\nSince we’re talking about brandy aka alcohol, I thought a drinking song appropriate, so I have here a piece from Bilbo’s 111th birthday in the Shire where much ale was consumed. This piece is very snappy and happy with lots of fiddles, clacking sounds, and cheery flutes. It makes me bounce and sway every time I listen to it. This is perfect for a fantasy or historical novel for a merry party scene! <\/span><\/div>\n
