“🤩 OMG, OMG, OMG. We were in full geek out mode today in Detroit when our homeboy from The Shire, Frodo Baggins, dined with us at Dime Store. Actor & producer Elijah Wood, best known for his role in The Lord of the Rings, brought out smiles & excitement from staff & guests alike because really, who doesn’t love Frodo?! By all accounts, he’s a super nice guy & even took some time to take pictures with our staff.
