I think that's one of the reasons I enjoy her writing. She'll put in a detail, sometimes making a big point of it, and right then and there when the reader is reading it they don't understand its significance, and forget about it, and then much later like you said brandybuck, it pops up and it's all "aaaah!"

Gotta love that, cuz that's a rare trait among authors to do it again and again without it looking unatural.

It just shows how much she thought the plot out ahead of time, which is generally a nice thing to do. That or she just went, "Oh, let's put a tiara in here. I'll find a use for it later and pretend like I knew it all along," which is also rather clever.
