1. When you think about your future what do you fear most? Hope for the most?
Fear? At the moment destruction of the planet, quickly by WW3 or slowly by our continued ignorance of global warming/climate change.
Hope?  World peace and joined up thinking on how to combat climate change.

A bit simplistic but as a parent, and now a grandparent, the state of the world does give cause for concern but I do believe there are more good people than bad out there and hope that they will prevail.

2. September is National Chicken Month. How often is chicken on the menu at your house? What's a favourite dish made with chicken? What's something you're a 'chicken' about doing or trying?
We eat a lot of chicken.  I love a roast chicken dinner but we often stir fry it or include it in a pasta dish.  I have never tried oysters and am definitely chicken about them!
3. What are three things you don't own but wish you did?

There’s nothing that I particularly hanker after.  I have all the main appliances in the house and enough of what we need.  If I was pushed to name something, a dream would be a beach hut on a quiet beach that we could retreat to when we felt like it.
4. Would you rather be a jack of all trades or a master of one? Elaborate.  If you answered one, which one?
I think a jack of all trades as there so many little jobs that come up around the house it’s useful to be able to tackle them where possible or at least know what needs doing so that you don’t get ripped off by a “master” telling you more needs doing than just changing a washer for example.
5. Ketchup or mustard? On what?

Ketchup every time.  Not a fan of mustard.  On chips definitely, fried breakfast, burgers.
6.  Insert your own random thought here.

I missed last week’s Hodgepodge as we were away for a family get together that you can read about here.  We had lots of Nathan time which helps distract from all the current doom and gloom around the world.  A lot of praying going on right now.
