1. Summer’s here-whoohoo! What’s your favorite sight, sound, AND smell associated with summer?

Sight: My growing garden.

Sound: The children playing at the beach in front of my house. Just think of all those giggles.

Smell: Anything being grilled on a charcoal grill. I am such a foodie!.

2. Fireflies or lightning bugs…what are they called in your neck of the woods?

Actually they call them both, but I guess fireflies is what I tend to use, when I refer to them.

3. What is something from the past week that reminded you of your childhood?

My little community just got done hosting Motorcycle Week here in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire. I grew up on Cape Cod and summers always meant crowds. So the past week with all the crowds makes me think of growing up in Falmouth, Massachusetts.

4. Define ‘the good life’.

I suppose not having to worry about bills, the laundry, and having the freedom to do what I want, when I want. Wait! I did that when I was about 13! LOL!

5. Tell us what we’d see if you took a snapshot of your desk/work space?

Right now that space is a work in progress. It’s terribly messy, but I hope by Sunday to have the office finally finished and clean!

6. Peaches or watermelon…yes, you have to choose.

Since we have our own peach trees I will say…Peaches!

The farm

7. Ever been skinny dippin’? Is that too much for the Wednesday Hodgepodge? Rest assured we won’t need details…unless of course you feel you must but remember, this is a family friendly blog so keep it G rated.

When Hubby and I lived in Florida, we had our own pool, that was caged in and was very private. On a really hot night I would slip out and take a dip! So, yes, I have skinny dipped!

8. Insert your own random thought here.

Today is my favorite cousin’s birthday! Go on over and wish Janet a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

  1. The good life at 13–sure was! And yes the smell of anything cooking on the grill…of course! If I had a private pool…nah, I still doubt I could do the skinny dipping. I think mine would be called Chunky Dunking.

  2. Too bad we don’t recognize we have the good life when we’re 13…we’re too busy wishing we were 16. I would love to have my own pool…my next house, sigh : )

  3. I love Birthdays! It is a great day for Janet’s Birthday! She is just getting younger every year!
    Love YOU, Mel

  4. Those peaches really do look good. I´ve never had one right from the tree. Maybe I would change my answer then. 🙂
    Happy Birthday to Janet!!
