Day 132: Wednesday Hodgepodge 1st Edition….for me

Image via Wikipedia

So I finally understand what a meme is and I found a pretty neat one in the Wednesday  Hodgepodge. I don’t have a link button because I don’t know how to put them into posts but if you go visit the nice lady who writes Reflections…by Kathy( the blog which introduced me to the Hodgepodge) she does

1. February 22nd is National Be Humble Day…what makes you proud? What keeps you humble? I’m proud of what Gideon continues to accomplish. Every lambing season I am reminded of how simple life can be. Sometimes the best thing about life is a game of king of the mountain on a hay bale.

2. Where is the catch-all (aka dumping ground) in your house? A drawer in our kitchen…you never know what’s in there.

3. Do you make it a point to visit State/National Parks when you travel or even in your own hometown? What’s your favorite? I have never been to either but if I had to pick one to visit it would be Craters of the Moon National Monument.
4. How would you define honor? Wow ..blog post fodder that.

5. Angel’s food or Devil’s food-which cake do you prefer? Since I’ve only had Angel Food I don’t know.

6. What’s the most recent road trip you’ve taken? Where did you go and how many hours did you spend in the car? Do you like to zoom to your destination without stopping or leisurely wind your way there with stops along the way? What is your car snack of choice? Last trip I took was to Atlanta….it was at least 6 hours and my favorite snack is cheese crackers. Since I don’t drive I don’t set the pace.

7. Recent headlines told how a preschool child in NC had their packed lunch from home taken away and a school lunch substituted by a school inspector who deemed the homemade lunch unhealthy. Reportedly the parent was then billed for the school lunch (chicken nugget meal) although an update to the story says the parent was not billed. The inspector was conducting a routine inspection of the classroom-he/she was not there solely to peek in the lunchboxes. The packed lunch contained a turkey and cheese sandwich, an apple juice box, a bag of chips, and a banana. You can read the story here. Your thoughts? That is just screwed up.

8. Transporter machines  need to be invented.
