This task was introduced in October 2005 and is available every year around Halloween.

It's one of five tasks required to receive a Bone Mask of Horror (illusion click item).

Mippie Diggs is found at 1950, 3800 in Kithicor Forest (near the Rivervale zone).

You say, 'Hail, Mippie Diggs'

Mippie Diggs says 'Hail to you too. You wouldn't happen to have any of those wondrous [pumpkiny foods] on you would you? I'm not really feel my best and nothing perks you up better than a nice bit of tasty pumpkin.'

You say, 'Pumpkiny foods?'

Mippie Diggs says 'The best of the best pumpkiny foods can be found in my personal book of home remedies. They may be a bit complicated to make, but you've never had anything tastier. I'd be happy to give you a copy of my book if you'd be [willing] to bring me the first couple of snacks you make.'

You say, 'I am willing.'

Mippie Diggs says 'Thank you so much. Here is the book, now see what sort of things you can come up with.'

You have been assigned the task 'The Hungry Halfling'.

Remember bring me the first snacks you make from that book!



Upon getting the task, you receive a book called Mippie's Home Remedies, which reads:

Baked Delights!

Pumpkin Pie

2 cups flour
2 bits of pumpkin flesh
2 bits of egg batter
1 bottle of milk
1 packet pumpkin spice
1 cup sugar
Pie tin

Baked Pumpkin Seeds

2 Handfuls Pumpkin Seeds
1 jar of butter
1 spinkle of ground pepper
Copper sheet

Pumpkin Bread

4 cups flour
1 bit of pumpkin flesh
Yeast
2 bits of egg batter
Bread tin

Tasty Brews

Spiced Pumpkin Cider

2 bits of pumpkin flesh
Barley
Hops
Pumpkin cider spice
Yeast
Bottle

Ice Cream Treats

Pumpkin Shake

1 bit of pumpkin flesh
1 Bottle of Sweet Milk
Ice of Velious
Rock salt


Pumpkin Pie is trivial at 68 Baking, Pumpkin Bread is trivial at 102 Baking, Spiced Pumpkin Cider is trivial at 68 Brewing (and also requires a Bottle), and Pumpkin Shake is trivial at 41 Baking.

Hand in the snacks to receive Bristlebane's Ticket of Admission.

Mippie Diggs says 'My, my, this looks good! Thank you ______!'



Rewards:

Experience (none detectable at level 80)
1x "Bristlebane's Ticket of Admission" (good for one group to enter the monster mission "Out with the Old")

You also receive one of the following (there may be more, but these are confirmed):

5 Dose Essence of Dark Elf
5 Dose Essence of Dwarf
5 Dose Essence of Erudite
5 Dose Essence of Half Elf
5 Dose Essence of Halfling

In the list of items in the Quest Items on thr left-hand side, you have listed: Spell: Illusion: Frost Bone

However, doing a find on this page, the only reference to "frost" is to itself.

It is not mentioned in Mippie's Home Remedies book nor in the conversations below.

So may I ask why it is included in the Quest Items if you don't explain why you would need it.

It looks like it is rewarded for completing this quest or completing a series of Halloween quests? According to the item page for it. I changed it from used in quests to rewards from quests.

Evidently you do not have to make one of each item. I gave up on the Ice of Velious and just handed in a second Baked Pumpkin Seeds and she took them. So just make 5 of whatever pumpkin recipe you want from the book she gives you and done.

In Unrest, collecting pumpkin flesh is outside of the estate house. So get up on top of the mansion and sniper the scarecrows on all 4 sides without having to run around too much.

Be sure to have other food in your bags in front of these or you will eat them.

Got a 5 dose Dark Elf Illusion... which does nothing for this Dark Elf.

Thanks, added Iksar and Vah Shir, since Halfling was already listed.

I guess there are 16 possible rewards : Barbarian, Dark Elf, Drakkin, Dwarf, Erudite, Gnome, Gukta, Half Elf, Halfling, High Elf, Human, Iksar, Ogre, Troll, Vah Shir, Wood Elf.

I did this quest, and you don't have to do each of the 5, just 5 examples of any of the 5. (could do 5 pumpkin breads; or do 3 baked pumpkin seeds and two shakes; etc.) Also, each time you complete the quest, you get a ticket and a random race illusion 5 dose potion. For example, the last two times I did it, I got an Erudite 5 dose and a Dark Elf 5 dose.

I just completed this quest again during Halloween 2011 by doing 5 of the Baked Pumpkin Seeds and ignoring everything else, so I can confirm that this method does still work.
