Hello Friends,
It is Wednesday and it is time for the Hodgepodge.
Joyce asks the questions.
We answer the questions.
1. When someone finds out what you do or where you're from, what's a question they always ask?
I was born and raised in the woods. Really, I was and so was my husband. So when we say where we are from, most people will say, "Where is that"?
We will start with the largest city that is close to the community that we grew up, which is about two hours away. If they know where that city is, we start to head further North into Wisconsin.
It is always fun when we do meet someone who actually does know where we are from.
And they will usually say, "you grew up out in the boondocks"!!
2. Did you participate in 'Greek Life' when you were in college, or have children who did? If so what was your experience like? Taking another tack...have you ever been to Greece? If not, is that a destination on your bucket list?
No, I did not participate in "Greek Life" ... my kids did not as well.
I have not been to Greece.
Visiting Greece is not high on my bucket list.
3. Do you like Greek food? If so what's your favorite dish?
I enjoy many Greek salads.
4. What incredibly common thing have you never done?
I do not have a tattoo.
5. What is a telltale sign that you're upset?
I do not have a poker face. You will know I am upset.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
A few days ago I wrote about all the dogs wondering around in our neighborhood. I just returned from my walk with our dog Ernie. We met up with a lady walking her dog, she said, "Warning, there are two dogs roaming ahead, they seem friendly, I just want to warn you, because you never know."
Ernie and I carried on with our walk. Yes, we saw the dogs, but they did not come our way. Thank goodness!!
When we travel and people ask where we live we say 'near the bigger nearby city' as most will not have heard of our town. Sorry about dogs on the run. That can be annoying and also scary. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI can relate to your answer to question 1. I always tell people I'm from the middle of nowhere Indiana. I tell them they won't have heard of the area and I'm usually always right... I don't have a poker face and I don't have a tattoo either. Now if I could just grow cucumbers like you do, we could be twins :).
