Wednesday Hodgepodge 30/9/15



Wednesday's Hodgepodge is brought to us courtesy of Joyce at 

Pop over there to see other posts and if you want to join in add your blog post to the Linky List at the end of Joyce's post.

Have fun!

1. Something on your October calendar that makes you smile?
My daughter’s wedding!  Enough said.
2. Food for the soul or music for the soul...which camp are you in? Tell us why?
Food – I’m miserable if I’m hungry and anything chocolate will always perk me up.  I can quite happily be on my own in a quiet house although I do listen to music sometimes.
3. What are two or three things you've learned recently as the result of an online search?  
Can’t remember all the specifics but definitely answers to crossword clues, e.g. I now know that a male castrated sheep is known as a wether.  Now aren’t you glad I played today? lol
4. Share your favorite game day recipe. You can describe it, post the how-to, or add a link to the actual recipe. 
I’m assuming by game day we’re talking about a football game or baseball game that you’d be watching at home.  We’re not big on watching sport at home and especially not with food.
5. What are your five essential steps for creating the perfect morning routine? 

  1. Having had a good night’s sleep the night before.
  2. Waking naturally before the alarm.
  3. A cup of tea in bed (hubby usually supplies that!)
  4. A good breakfast.
  5. None of last night’s mess left to clear up.

6. What small thing have you taken note of today?   
Umm how to cope with an online shop when it comes without bags? 
7. Sum up your September in seven words or less.
Satisfying, sunny (some of the time), enjoyable, tiring, family time, refreshing
8.  Insert your own random thought here.
Joyce always makes us think and I’m grateful for that.  As September draws to a close I’m actually looking forward to Christmas for the first time in years.  Mainly because my family are gradually all getting settled, I have plans for the house and I have time.  A precious commodity.
