Time for the Hodgepodge, Joyce asks the questions. We answer the questions.

1. March 15th is known as The Ides of March, the date on which Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 B.C....have you ever been to Rome? If so what did you love most about the city? If not, is this a place you'd like to visit? 

I have not been to Rome. Yes, I would like to visit someday.

 2. 'Rome wasn't built in a day.' What project/activity/improvement (of any kind) do you have going on right now to which this saying might be applied? 

We have plans to paint and redecorate our bedroom, but things are moving very slow.

 

3. Let's do a little this or that with some Italian foods...

• Caprese salad or Prosciutto with melon? 
• Bruschetta or Antipasto? 
• lasagne or ravioli?
• bolognese or Carbonara?
• Risotto or gnocchi? 
• tiramisu~gelato~cannoli?

 4. Of the colors red, white, and green which would I find most prevalent in your home? Which one do you think is most flattering to you in terms of your wardrobe? Have you ever had your colors done? Is that something you'd be interested in doing? 

 We do not have these colors in our home. We have several shades of blue, brown and grey.

Red is in my wardrobe.

I had my colors done long ago, it was a fun Girl Scout outing my mom planned. I would love to do it again.

Here in Wisconsin, we talk about the weather hourly, because it can be all four seasons in a day around here.
