Welcome to November and this week's edition of The Wednesday Hodgepodge. If you've answered today's questions add your link at the end of my post, then leave a comment for your neighbor there. Here we go-
2. Do you like candles? Your favorite scent? How often do you burn a candle in your home?
I do like candles and we burn one most evenings. I'm very particular about the scent though. I don't like anything too floral or too sweet. My favorite scents are a citrus-sage and, this time of year, cinnamon/spice.
3. What gadgets did you use today?
My laptop, cell phone, potato masher (for deviled eggs), my washer and dryer (do they count as gadgets? I looked it up and the definition says 'small device' so probably not...)
4. This question is a repeat from one asked in November of 2014, but I liked it so it's coming round again. Many of you weren't here in 2014. Okay, you can have fifty pounds of something (anything but money)...what will you choose? Also, since I mentioned it...what were you up to in November of 2014?
I'll take fifty pounds of ham please. I volunteer in a soup kitchen and they're gathering foods for the holidays. Fifty pounds of ham would go a long way.
What was I up to in 2014? This-
5. 'Tis the season...what's something you're feeling especially grateful for today?
Fall. The changing seasons really. I love the way the world turns and the ever changing landscape. Fall is my favorite season and I'm in love with the color and the light and the cooler weather. Hubs wants summer all year long, but I am all about fall.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I know there are mixed feelings about Halloween, and we don't go overboard here, but we did have a fun couple of days dressing up and seeing friends.
Now let's turn the page...

ReplyDeleteHe did great as Alice! I mean, that's a legit costume! Good job, y'all.
ReplyDeleteGreat costumes! I wasn't sure about the gadgets question but if it means small device, then I think I was on the right track.
ReplyDeleteAwesome costumes!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the game and I know that the time with your grandchildren will be awesome. Your candle choices sound lovely. I looked up gadgets too! I used a vacuum but I didn't think it counted. Yum on the deviled eggs. That's a great point on the ham and what a fun time with the wedding. We don't get much in Fall color so I love seeing all the photos of trees this time of year. Glad you had a nice time. You two look great!
ReplyDeleteYou two look great in your costumes! Sheesh...I forgot about my computer and phone as gadgets! Happy November to you!
ReplyDeleteHi, WOW, what a great Alice Cooper!!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the good ol days of when we sent RSVP's back in the mail for wedding invitations. The last two we were invited to, it was all online.

ReplyDeleteOh yes, cinnamon/spice scents are my favorites too! Especially this time of year.. Your costumes are great!

ReplyDeleteI had a hard time figuring out what would qualify as gadgets. But this week's questions were fun!
ReplyDeleteLike you, I am all about fall. My favorite season hands down. The foliage season has been unusual up here this year, but it has lasted a nice long time.
Hello there, hope all is going well over in your part of the world, here are my answers to these hodgepodge questions.

I use tongs both kitchen tongs and the long handled ones to pick stuff up off the floor.
