Hodgepodge

 

 Hi Friends and Happy Hump Day OR Happy Hodgepodge Day!

Linking up with Joyce to answer her fun questions...here we go...

 

 1. March 15th is known as The Ides of March, the date on which Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 B.C....have you ever been to Rome? If so what did you love most about the city? If not, is this a place you'd like to visit? 

YES YES YES....we went during the summer of 2023 with friends to celebrate my 50th birthday and it was a true dream and trip of a lifetime.  I loved Rome more than I ever thought I would...the architecture...the history...the wonderful people and the best food I have eaten in my entire life...highly recommend this beautiful city...so rich in culture and simply magical

 

 2. 'Rome wasn't built in a day.' What project/activity/improvement (of any kind) do you have going on right now to which this saying might be applied?

 

I don't really have any projects per say but the first things I think of are work, of course, like trying to sell my first house and trying to close business with my full time job (make placement) which has been so difficult for me over the last few years and also my volunteer work....our Blackout Week takes a full year of planning every year...so much work and always so worth it!

 

 

3. Let's do a little this or that with some Italian foods...

 
Caprese salad or Prosciuto with melon? Caprese salad
Bruschetta or Antipasto? Bruschetta 

Lasagne or Ravioli? Lasagna 

Bolognese or Carbonara? Bolognese
Risotto or Gnocchi? Risotto 

Tiramisu~Gelato~Cannoli? Gelato

 

 

 

 

4. Of the colors red, white, and green which would I find most prevalent in your home? Which one do you think is most flattering to you in terms of your wardrobe? Have you ever had your colors done? Is that something you'd be interested in doing? 

I would say white is most prevalent in our home and as far as my wardrobe, I gravitate towards green- just love how Kelly green is so flattering on me

 

 

 

5. Life would be boring without____________________? 

 

My kids...their activities....their joy

 

 

   

6. Insert our own random thought here.

I LOVED this Hodgepodge...brought back so many wonderful memories of Italy and being 100% Italian I appreciated it more than I ever thought I would!  Hope you enjoyed the pics....they are all from our wonderful trip...here are just a few more in Rome...before we took off for the Amalfi Coast
