WEDNESDAY HODGE PODGE

 

Wednesday Hodgpodge Questions-

Lucky you...it's time for the weekly Hodgepodge!  
Told you I was going to use that bad pun every Tuesday in March. Thanks Joyce for hosting this blog.

1. Do you play games of luck/chance for money? Have you ever played bingo for money? Visited a casino?  Placed a bet on a horse? Bought a lottery ticket?

Yes I have to all of the above. Have I ever won? Not really! Do I play now? No!

2.  Will you be preparing and/or dining on the traditional Corned Beef and Cabbage meal this St. Patrick's Day? Mashed-baked-hash browned-french fried...your favourite way to have potatoes?

No since I don’t cook and hubby doesn’t like cooked cabbage or mashed potatoes.


3. What's the last thing you felt 'green with envy' over?

I have been envious of people who have cruised to more places than I have.


4.  What's at the end of your rainbow?

I love rainbows and think they bring Luck. They have certainly brightened my world.


5. March 12th marks the anniversary of the death of Anne Frank (June 12, 1929-March, 1945).  Anne's diary detailing her time spent hiding from the Nazi's during the war ranks as one of the best selling books of all time.  Besides your blog, do you keep any sort of diary or or journal?  Was this a habit you developed as a child or is journaling something new for you?

Until I started blogging I never kept a journal or a diary. I started blogging as way for my friends and family to share my travels.

6. What's an item in your home or closet that contains every color of the rainbow?

My wardrobe itself is a rainbow however I do not have one article of clothing that would fit this question.


7.  Write a limerick with you as the subject.  You can do it!!  Just remember this is a family friendly blog...don't make me get out my wooden spoon.

My favourite limerick is “Mother may I go for a swim? Yes my darling daughter. Hang your clothes on a hickory limb and don’t go near the water”.


8.  Insert your own random thought here

We have come back from our cruise and are getting caught up in a lot of commitments. We have babies being born so showers are needed. We have weddings and showers for that as well. We have our first theatre trip this weekend and we see “Mary Poppins” at a brand new theatre. We also have lots of birthdays coming up. Not to mention my Uncle and Aunt will be celebrating 50 years of marriage this spring. They are only the second family member to make it. My parents will be celebrating their 64th. It is good to be home although we are looking forward to our next cruise in August.

Good morning! I'd love to see Mary Poppins with some of my grands! And in a brand new theater too...sounds good, Enjoy!
Wow, 64 years of marriage! Now there's something to celebrate :)
I still enjoy going to a casino from time to time when the opportunity rises. I've never been on a cruise but would love to try one someday.

I'd love to see Mary Poppins, the musical. It rates as one of my favorite Disney movies, I think mostly because of the soundtrack. My sister and I used to sing all the songs repeatedly when we were little. Some of my fondest memories of childhood reside there.
I loved going on my first cruise in 2009, I hope you guys have a great time. :) I too loved Mary Poppins though seeing the musical would be nice. --Nikki

50 years is amazing! My grandparents made it, if mt mother was still with us, my parents would be 48 in July. Mt husband and I got married when we were both 42...we might be that stubborn!

Is it really envy when you meet people who've cruised to more places or a goal? ;)

The longevity of marriages in your family is something to be very proud of these days. As for being envious of those who have traveled, I can't relate 'cause I'm very much a home body. And I love your concept of rainbows brightening your day. That's a lovely sentiment.
My recent post Ahhhhhhh, the good life!!!
We saw Mary Poppins in London and really liked it. The special effects were fun! Enjoy the show! Congrats to all the long happily marrieds in your family-that is something to celebrate!
