I am unsure on how hard this would be to do. Just advance warning there. Now you may be wondering what any of that has to do with each other. The thing is, middle earth, if you simply pay attention to the text, is a rather exciting place. Parties in the shire, ... well, honestly there is a lot. This suggestion is about attempting to make that large amount of content in text, at least somewhat appear in the world. Also kinda stemmed off of another suggestion about getting random gifts from hobbits, this kinda wanted to make it so there would be reason.

Chairs
Honestly, why are there no chairs or benches in all of middle-earth? I realize that this could fall under the category of, "There are plenty of nice aesthetic mods for things such as clothing or furniture, just use one of those", however if you do, while it allows for players to rest, NPCs will still just talk about reading by the hearth, or hosting dinner parties. With the addition of chairs NPCs would be able to sit down for a meal rather than always eat on the go, or read a novel before bed. I also suggest that NPCs should be able to sleep, its a little weird having you be the only one that even has the ability to sleep.

Reading
NPCs seem to love books, hobbits in particular. They even have quests asking for them. I suggest that they should be able to read these books, perhaps appearing as holding an open book while they do so rather than a book item. Although that would work too.

Eating
NPCs currently eat on the run. It never really seems to occur to them to sit down with their families and eat together while discussing their days. I suggest that NPCs should sit down when they eat sometimes, and eat much slower then, talking with others during this.

Parties
For the hobbits especially, NPCs should have parties. They would gather together, and set up tables with food and drink. while this construction is in progress you will be yelled at for disturbing any of the blocks. After the construction is finished the host will invite you to join (as long as you have + that is), and may possibly give you a gift upon arrival such as a pipe or hat.

Well, there we are. A rather simple suggestion in theory, although I expect that to make this it could be an entire update (kinda a warning for those considering giving kudos) Criticism is welcome provided it is constructive.
