Spring has sprung and colour is returning to the land
by Phineas J. Pennefeather Sun May 03, 2015 5:06 am
[Time Stamp: Sunday May 3, 2015]
It is early morning and Phineas J. Pennefeather, the Halfling proprietor of the Watering Hole Tavern, quietly steps into the kitchen in an attempt not to wake anyone who may be asleep in the main room of the tavern. He is carrying a large sack of the morning’s gatherings from the nearby meadows and woods. Phineas gently places the sack on the floor behind the counter and then checks the stove and adds wood to build the fire.
The Halfling ties on his well-used leather apron and returns to his work at the counter. He washes and cuts up handfuls of wild edible roots and onions, careful to wipe and wash the soil away. Stepping away for a moment, Phineas returns with pieces of lightly-smoked dried cod-fish and some of the remaining potatoes. In less than five minutes, the pot is filled and topped with herbs. Phineas returns to the stove and with a little more dried wood, he has the fire going well enough to put the fish stew on to boil up. In moments, the Watering Hole is filling with the aroma of good food.

As soon as the aroma of the stew touched his nose Borin was awake again. The taste of ale was still on his tongue and strangely something else, pickles maybe? He didn't know. As he turned a ray of morning sun came in through the window right into his eyes. It was like a punch in the face. He fell down and gave a loud grunt. Spring may have Its advantages like being able to easily walk to the forge and fresh vegetables for the stew but one thing Borin wasn't looking forward to was the sun.
Recovering and brushing himself off He turns to the halfling "Whats cooking this morning Merryweather?"

"Have a seat, Borin Ironhammer, and dig into this!"
The Halfling Innkeeper, Phineas, quickly scoops out a stemming bowl the hearty fish and potato stew and lays it down in front of the Dwarf.
"Eat up!" he says. "You will need your strength for the forge!"
