Dial M for Murder and it is the Hodgepodge

 

Linus: "On Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin rises from his pumpkin patch and flies through the air with his bag of toys to all the children." 

 

Hello Friends, it is Wednesday and that means it is time for the Hodgepodge. 

Joyce asks the questions.

We answer the questions.

Click here to join the fun! 

 1. What's something that scares you? 

Storms.. I do not like storms. High wind, lightning, hail, no thank you!

 2. Do you care where the food you eat comes from? To what degree?

Yes!! To a HIGH degree. We garden, so we harvest a lot of our own veg. We pick our own strawberries, blueberries and apples. Thankfully, we are blessed to live in a farm to table area and many people who live here are very supportive in knowing where our food comes from and support the local grower and farmer.

 3. What's something you wish you'd spent more time doing when you were younger?

Spending time with my Grandma Martha. 

4. Let's play autumn this or that....pumpkin spice or apple cider? Apple Cider Corn maze or haunted house? Corn Maze Horror film or Hallmark movie? Hitchcock Movies... they are a favorite for us to watch during the month of October  Blanket or sweatshirt? Sweatshirt  Watch football or watch the World Series? I use to follow baseball.. I will go with the World Series  Foilage-red, yellow or orange?  Red

5. This time last year where were you and what were you doing?  


 
We said Good Bye to Sam and the rest of the 157th. We reminisced about his deployment over the weekend. One year ago ... off to serve our country in Africa.

We are so thankful that all are home, back on Wisconsin soil.

 

 6. Insert your own random thought here. 

A few more of my favorite Hitchcock movies..

Dial M for Murder

The Lady Vanishes

Rear Window

Strangers on a Train

The Trouble with Harry ... this one is down right funny!

And don't for get to look for Hitch... we always yell.. "there he is" when we spot him.

The Money Tree

Our phone company sends us a monthly online newsletter. It has hints for using the computer, fun web sites to visit and some cool video to watch.

This month they shared this fun one about a Real Life Money tree.

Real-Life Money Tree
What happens when 100 one-dollar bills are pinned to a tree on a busy city sidewalk? Watch this video to see the various responses to this interesting social experiment. Spoiler alert: most people walk by without noticing the money!



It is 5 minutes. 
Let me know what you think.
Have a great Monday!
