Each week Joyce comes up with a set of questions for the Hodgepodge and we share our posts on her blog here.
2. What's one thing on your real or proverbial autumn bucket list?
We're aiming to visit our son and family in the US again for Thanksgiving this year. That's still technically fall season but there will be a good chance of snow by then.
3. Apples, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, butternut squash and cranberries are some of the top fall foods. Which one is your favourite and how do you like it prepared? Any on the list you don't eat? Which one have you had most recently?
I love an apple pie or crumble. We had an apple and rhubarb crumble when we were away with cousins recently.
I'm not a big fan of pumpkin but I'll eat the others.
4. 'Fall is proof that change is beautiful' is a popular sentiment. Would you agree or no? Elaborate.
Well to a degree. The changing colours of the trees during fall are beautiful but change can also be difficult, unexpected and unwanted.
5. Is there a spot near you where people go to see the leaves change colour? Will you try to leaf peep somewhere this fall? Lonely Planet lists the following ten places as the best for leaf peeping...of those listed which would you most like to visit?
Stowe, Vermont~Shenandoah National Park, Virginia~Columbia River Gorge, Oregon~Zion National Park, Utah~Tennessee/North Carolina border~West Virgina~Northwestern Wyoming~Wisconsin Northwoods~Northern Nevada~Ozark Highlands Scenic Byway, Arkansas
Walking through the local forest is about as far as I'll go but of the above list I'd choose Stowe in Vermont as it's close to our family there.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
Vinny (on the left) turned 5 this week which means we've been in this house 5 years now too. Time goes too fast!
