1. It's officially spring in the northern hemisphere. Does it feel like spring in your part of the world? If you're in the southern hemisphere it's officially autumn where you live. Does the weather say autumn? Which do you prefer-spring or autumn? Why?
3. Spring into action, spring in your step, spring to life, spring to one's feet...which spring idiom currently applies to your life in some way? Explain.
Spring to life. I've been super busy this Lent, doing exactly what I thought I'd be doing when I pictured life after CH's passing. It's taken 2 years and 3 Lents to get my act in gear!
4. Which spring food from this list is your favorite? What's a dish you like that includes your favorite spring ingredient?
asparagus, strawberries, salad greens like mesclun, artichokes, spinach, eggs, peas, spring onions
Definitely strawberries. I don't need them in a recipe! If I had to say one, though, I'd say strawberry shortcake.
5. What's one task on your spring cleaning list? Do you actually have a list?
A spring cleaning list? (LOL!) No, I don't have one, but I do need to clean the windows. Ugh.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I published the first post of my Greece trip. I'm breaking it up into the land portion and the cruise portion; the land portion is on Flyin' the Coop.
Spring has so many wonderful things about it. I love hearing the birds sing.
ReplyDeleteYum to the strawberry shortcake! I could just eat some of that now!
Sounds like you've come a long way on a tough road. Glad you are finding some good adventures. Happy Spring and Happy Hodgepodge to you!
ReplyDeleteI do love a strawberry shortcake. Our strawberries aren't in the stores yet so we're still getting Florida berries. I do think ours are sweeter. I think you're doing great managing life and doing things that are important to you. Enjoy your upcoming travels!!
ReplyDeleteI know that we feel like we went right into summer here. You are right, I've been hearing the birds singing like crazy. That is nice that you have been busy with Lent. Yes, strawberries are good and shortcakes are yummy. I don't have a Spring cleaning list but we did have someone out to wash our outside windows. It was so worth the money. Have a nice trip and enjoy your day today.
ReplyDeleteWe've had some very hot days here too, which is disconcerting since it's early. But we had a very cold winter so who knows what this weather is doing!
ReplyDeleteI loved your answer to #3. I'm glad you've gotten where you hoped you'd be.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry about your husband's passing but am glad to read you are doing some things you hoped to do. The trip to Greece sounds amazing! Hope your weekend is going well Mary.
