Wednesday Hodgepodge on a Thursday again!

 

 

 

Hi Friends and Happy Thursday!  So again, I am linking up with Joyce a day late...can't miss out on her fun linkup!  So here we go with her fun questions...

 

 

 

1. March is rolling on out of here. Sum up your March in ten words or less. 

 

 

Longer Days- Less Frigid- Fun Nights Out With Friends 

 

 

2. Are you afraid of heights? When was the last time you found yourself dealing with a height, and did it make you nervous?

 

 

Yes I am.  I am afraid of a lot of things unfortunately.  Small Spaces- Heights- Birds- you know the drill.   I had to deal with height when climbing a very steep staircase in a home I was showing.  It made me very nervous so I told my buyers..."I will wait downstairs for you...take your time." I couldn't get downstairs fast enough- eek!  ;)

 

3. What's a word you struggle to spell on a regular basis, and sometimes need to double check before writing it down? Use the word in a sentence that tells us something about your April calendar. 

 

 

 Wednesday.  We took our friend out for dinner to celebrate her birthday on Wednesday night!

 

 

 

4. Love 'em or hate 'em, with Easter comes the sweet treat known as Peeps. So... do you love 'em or hate 'em? Speaking of peeps, what's your favorite way to have chicken? 

 

We love 'em here...especially when they get stale and crunchy.  We have topped hot chocolate with them in the past and even made s'mores with them.  Pivoting to chicken...my fave chicken dish is Chicken Milanese...but I am a sucker for crunchy chicken tenders too

 

5. This week's Hodgepodge lands on the first day of April, which happens to be National Poetry Month. Do you like poetry?  Share a favorite line or two from one of your favorite poems. What makes this one a favorite? 

 

 Not a huge fan of poetry...had to read so much of it in college as I was a writing major.  This one, however, always stayed with me:

The Road Not Taken

By Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

 

6. Insert your own random thought here.  

 

This is Holy Week.  It is my favorite week in the church all year.  It is when I feel closest to God.  I read as much as I can and get into the church as much as I can to remember all of the suffering and sacrifice and to put myself there.  Easter weekend is a celebration of the resurrection and all that came to be and I don't take it for granted.
