I can't think of anything other than the children hiding a realistic looking toy spider in odd places to scare me.
2. What's the last biography or non-fiction book you've read? Was it any good?
The latest memoir I read was, Growing Up Amish, by Ira Wagler. I really enjoyed it.
3. Garlic-friend or foe? What's your favorite dish made with garlic?
We love garlic. I use it all the time in many different dishes. I'm not sure I can choose a favorite. One that is always a hit is an onion, garlic pull apart bread I make occasionally.
4. Several Spring flower festivals happen in the US during the month of April. Of those listed, which would you most like to see in person...The Skagit Tulip Festival in Skagit Washington, The Dogwood Arts Festival in Knoxville Tennessee, The North Carolina Azalea Festival in Wilmington North Carolina or the Daffodil Festival Weekend on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts?
I'm choosing the Daffodil Festival, because I really want to visit Nantucket Island.
5. How do you choose which blogs to read? What is something that will make you stop and read every time? Something that makes you say, 'eh, think I'll skip this one and move on to the next'?
An interesting blog title is the first thing that grabs my attention. If the style of writing is engaging I'll become a regular reader. There are several different types of blogs I read regularly.
- The subject matter interests me.
- They make me laugh.
- They make me think.
- They're uplifting and happy.
6. April is National Mathematics Education Month so tell us, when did you last use math?
I use it everyday.
Awesome. Temperature was very pleasant, a lot of yard work was done, and even a picnic was enjoyed. Spring is a delightful time of year!
8. Insert your own random thought here.
On the menu for tonight. Maryland Crab Cakes. Can't wait.
I love crab cakes...we just had some last week!!!
ReplyDeleteOur weather here lately has been wonderful! Soaking it in! Mmm...crab cakes sound delish!
ReplyDeleteNow you have me wanting to have a picnic! The weather here has been beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteLoved visiting with you. I love Maryland Crab Cakes. I have been to Nantucket and Martha's vineyard and loved both places.
ReplyDelete...from a fake spider to crab cakes!!! Kids will do this to mom's. I remember taking a mouse out of a trap she had set in the basement...I laid it on the step...to scare her. It didn't And that's the last time I tried anything on my mom. lol
ReplyDeleteBut the crab cakes...oh please, have one for me willya?!!!
Thanks for popping by my blog today! That garlic/onion pull apart bread you wrote about sounds delicious! I might have to try that some time
ReplyDeleteI try, for the most part, to keep my blogs positive. Reading whiny stuff is just no fun, but sometimes life is hard and it turns up on my page anyway.
ReplyDeleteI forgot about that word verification thingy to leave a comment, I don't like that either. No music either, always scares me!
ReplyDeleteWhat is text talk? I sure hope I don't use it! And yes I hate the music on blogs too, which is why I keep my sound off when blog visiting. That book sounds really interesting. We have quite s few Amish in our neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteMy hubby would be happy to have dinner with you...e loves crab cakes!
ReplyDeleteMy answer today was seeing the tulips because I love them but I would really like to visit Nantucket, I've never been there. Glad your day was awesome! Hope you enjoyed your dinner......
ReplyDeleteIf I had read this yesterday, I might have invited myself over for dinner!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Linda
I'm with you on the word verification thingy! Your dinner plan sounded awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm a little slow getting around to the Hodgpodge posts this week, but I will definitely come back to read your A-Z. You have an interesting topic and I'd like to read more. Have a wonderful weekend!
