Joyce provides the questions, we prepare our answers then the link up is here. Have fun.
1.What's something you find extremely difficult that most people would say is simple?
Making small talk. I hate going into situations where I don't know anyone and starting up conversations. Although I think there might be quite a lot of people who agree with me so how about keeping houseplants alive. I'm not too good at that either.
3. Pickles. Love 'em or no thank you? What's your favourite type of pickle? What's something you eat that definitely needs a pickle added?
Some I like others no thank you. I like pickled onions and cheese just has to have pickle with it.
4. Tis the season...do you know any June brides? Are there any weddings on your summer calendar? What's your favourite movie wedding?
I'm a June bride! Will be celebrating 42 years next week. We're invited to a wedding in September so almost the summer.
Four weddings and a funeral.
5. June 1st is/was National Say Something Nice Day...say something nice here.
Joyce deserves a medal for turning up every week and keeping this Hodgepodge community together. Thank you Joyce.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
We have rain and much cooler temps! Last week's heatwave was unbearable so it's lovely being cooler and we needed some rain. Just wish the weekend forecast was looking a little better.
We're also 42 in June-happy anniversary! We're actually celebrating with an overnight to a mountain town a little early since our anniversary is also our grandson's birthday and usually Father's Day as well. There are many in the HP today who are not comfortable with small talk. Our family is a family of talkers lol.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm with you on small talk! When I try it always sounds to me as forced. I like deep conversations!
ReplyDeleteHave a good week, Wendy
Happy Anniversary to you!!
ReplyDeleteMy sister is a June bride, she got married June 16th. :-)
I am useless with houseplants, they always die. I do much better with plants outside.
ReplyDeleteOhh! I never thought of pickled onions, I do like those but not the green pickles.
Happy anniversary to you and your husband.
I am enjoying the cooler temps this week and the rain has been great for the garden.
I have no problem with "small" or other talk, I am a born chatterbox and if I don't talk people talk to me I don't know why ! We also had a very hot week always 30 ° and now it rains and we have thunderstorms. My son with family was invited to a Birthday of a very old friend and had landed at Stansted on Saturday and they wanted to return on Sunday late afternoon, they had already done the check in when suddenly all flights were cancelled without explanation. They had to take a taxi to Stanton to take their flight to Amsterdam there, but no flight either they had to look for a hotel and wait for Monday afternoon and finally got a flight to Amsterdam where they arrived late ! Crazy it's such a short flight ! Finally they got home at 8.30 pm ! They could have gone to Australia (nearly)
ReplyDeleteWe answered 1 and 2 the same, as well as 5! Happy anniversary next week!! It is a bit cooler and less humid today, which feels great! Another fun Hodgepodge!!
