Wednesday Hodgepodge

1. William Shakespeare’s birthday is celebrated on April 23rd…when did you last read Shakespeare? What’s your favorite Shakespeare play?

Romeo and Juliet. It’s the romantic in me, I guess!

2. What food(s) would you recommend a foreign visitor try when they visit your home country?

Either a good old fashioned American Hamburger with Fries, or Lobster with Corn on the cob!

3. What’s a lie you often tell yourself?

That my butt isn’t big! Enough said!

4. What’s something you’re good at that might surprise us? Remember this is a family friendly blog!

You all know I cook, but my first love is baking. As in, bread. I love to bake bread! Unfortunately once baked, I can’t stop eating it, so I had to stop baking it!

5. Who is your favorite animal character from a book?

Lassie. Not only was there a great TV show, but Lassie also was featured in many books. Add to that Bambi and Tigger.

6. April showers bring May flowers…do you have a green thumb?

Only with my vegetable garden. Just about everything else, I kill.

7. Speaking of rainy days…which one of the following activities would you most want to spend time doing on a rainy day-

sort photos and create albums
bake cookies
read a good book
hold an all-day movie marathon
organize closets, cupboards, or bookshelves
try a new recipe
fix something that needs fixing

Of things on that list, it would have to be an all day movie marathon. Sometimes they have NCIS Marathons, and I’ll turn it on while I am cleaning and doing laundry.

8. Insert your own random thought here.

We had RAIN! Finally. This morning the skies have cleared for the most part, and our grass is green. I can see the buds on the trees opening, and soon we will have full lush oaks, and maples and birch trees.
