Welcome to August and this week's Wednesday Hodgepodge. If you've answered today's questions, add your link at the end of my post, then leave a comment for the blogger before you. Here we go...
2. What's one thing you wish you knew before starting high school?
There's a lot of pressure in high school, both socially and academically. Lots of big feelings you're trying to manage. These can be, and often are, wonderful years, but you're still learning who you are and who you want to be. These are not the best years of your life.
3. What's something that bothers you if it's not done perfectly?
The way the dishwasher is loaded. Ridiculous I know, but there is a right way lol.
4. What's the most overrated food you're convinced people are just pretending to enjoy?
Matcha
What's a trendy food you actually do enjoy and would say is definitely not overrated?
sushi, oysters
5. Wrapping it up this week with five fun this or thats...
dance like nobody's watching or sing like nobody's listening?
ten minutes late or ten minutes early?
6. Insert your own random thought here.
Vitamin Sea...
...for when life feels a little too salty.
Kind of had to chuckle because I put matcha as the food trend I’m enjoying. Ha! Have a wonderful vacation!
ReplyDeleteI love your pictures of the beach. Definitely looks very relaxing and summery
ReplyDeleteThis was one of my favorites yet- always love chatting about summer :) Thanks for such great questions Joyce!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're enjoying several perfect summer days! I agree about matcha. No one really likes it, right? People just say they do?? I hope you're having a great time and thanks for the link up!
ReplyDeleteYour perfect summers day does sound pretty perfect!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that we don't have a dishwasher as I know my family would load it wrong. hehehe
Eww! Matcha, I am not a fan either!
You must be at the beach! Lovely! I see you are reading Parents Weekend and that is on my list. I did try the Strawberry Matcha Strato something from Starbucks and surprised myself by liking it!
ReplyDeleteThat does sound like the most perfect, dreamiest summer day! Matcha and sushi were both on my list for #4 as well! I just can’t. Lol! I need some of that vitamin sea in my life right now. That picture is gorgeous! Thanks for hosting…I love these link-ups!
ReplyDeleteYour Vitamin Sea shot is just perfect. What fun to be at the sea with all your littles! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteAs you might can tell...I am new to this. I tried to copy and post the link but couldn't get it to work... May need a little help! lol.
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce,
ReplyDeleteYou captured summer with your photos today. :-)
I tried making Matcha here at home, but I could not get it to taste good. Ha!
Now that is a perfect summer day. Good answer about high school. I agree with you on the dishwasher. I'm not even sure what matcha is but I would eat oysters. Like your answers for #5. Love the vitamin Sea! Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteExcept the summer day description we have mostly the same opinion, except that you watch over the dishwasher and I over the toilet ! and I didn't care about school.
ReplyDeleteThat last photo is frame worthy - it is gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI love your beach photos! I feel the same way about matcha, and could add boba tea to the list too. Ditto on the dishwasher. Enjoy the beach!
ReplyDeleteI've only had a sip here or there of Alec's matchas (he LOVES them so much he makes his own matcha at home) and I do like some of the cold foam flavored ones like the white chocolate raspberry.. but I'm not sure I could drink a whole cup of it from the coffee shop. That said I don't eat sushi either! LOL I just can't even bring myself to try it-- the texture gets me every time.
ReplyDeleteSo true about high school and I love the idea too of listening to music on a perfect day. Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteWe were on the same wavelength about high school and I didn't think about the dishwasher but I have been known to "rearrange" it lol.
ReplyDeleteAnother fun Hodgepodge! I had to look up matcha. Never heard of it. LOL Not sure I would like it. I can't eat raw sushi anymore. I got so sick on it one time and that was enough. I do love wasabi and the ginger and the cooked or veggie versions. Enjoy your beautiful summer lake days!!
ReplyDeleteI like that kind of vitamin sea!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that Vitamin Sea photo has me longing for the beach - and I'm not a beach person! I also mentioned matcha as a food people are surely pretending to like. LOL And I am with you about there being a "right" way to load the dishwasher. I taught my son to do it and he's been correcting me and everyone else ever since. haha. Happy Summer!
ReplyDeleteGreat answers....love the photo of the ocean. Yes..HS is NOT the best years of your life. I love your thoughts on that.
