Tuesday's 4

 


Welcome all, here I am taking part in Tuesday's 4, this is the first one for 2026 this year I am going to try and post on the right day of the week, anyway, here are this week’s questions.

Welcome once again to  Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 

Here are this week's questions

Where do you like to buy your groceries and do you buy by the day, week or month?

I do a weekly shop and I do online shopping at both major grocery stores here Coles & Woolworths and I get it delivered that costs me only $2, there are only a few $2 slots available so I start my shopping on Sunday for delivery on Tuesday.

What foods would we always find in your kitchen?

Milk, butter, cheese, vegemite, peanut butter and plum jam

Do you buy anything online and if so what kinds of things are you most likely to buy there?

Other than groceries, I do a lot of shopping on Temu

Do you shop with a list on paper, on your phone or do you just shop without a list and maybe come home with things you never planned to buy?

I have a list written on paper for my online shopping and when I go out to the supermarket which is once a fortnight with my sister Sue, I have it written on my phone sometimes I will tape a small paper list to my phone case.

Bonus question:  What will you be cooking in the coming week?

Nothing I no longer do any cooking

A Loving Hodgepodge

 


Hi all here I am taking part in 2026 hodgepodge Q & A the questions can be found here:

http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/2026/02/hodgepodge-questions-volume-642.html

1. America celebrates turning 250 years old this year. Primary cities set to lead the celebrations on July 4th are Boston, Philadelphia, New York, and Washington D.C. Other significant locations for celebrating will be Charleston SC and the 'historic triangle' which includes Jamestown-Willimasburg-Yorktown Virginia. 

Of the cities listed how many have you seen in person? Of the cities listed which would you most like to visit this year? Any plans to do so? What's one place in America you think everyone should, see? If you're not American what's one place in the US, you'd like to see? 

Well since I live in Australia, I have not seen and part of the States, once I would have liked to visit the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas and New York but not at this time, oh and I have been to Hawaii.

2. Three sounds you love to hear? 

The sound of silence

The sound of birds

The sound of young children playing

3. Three sounds you hate to hear? 

The sound of the neighbours fighting

The sound of a large party

The sound of a police car behind me with flashing lights

4. February 24th is/was National Tortilla Chip Day. Are you a fan? With salsa, guacamole, queso, or just plain please? Do you like nachos? With what on top? Is there anything (besides nachos) you make that calls for tortilla chips? 

No I am not a fan of such foods

5. We March into March with next week's Hodgepodge...what's one thing on your March calendar that makes you smile? 

Nothing happening in March at this stage

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

This week’s random thought is by some unknown person

“Loving yourself…does not mean being self-absorbed or narcissistic, disregarding others. Rather it means welcoming yourself as the most honoured guest in your own heart, a guest worthy of respect, a lovable companion.”

Hodgepodge and Pancakes

 


Hi all here I am taking part in 2026 hodgepodge Q & A the questions can be found here:

http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/2026/02/hodgepodge-questions-volume-641.html

The Hodgepodge lands on Ash Wednesday, which is the first day of Lent. Do you mark this season in some way? Will you be giving something up or adding something to your life in this Lenten season? 

Nope

Pancakes...are you a fan? Syrup or no syrup? Plain, blueberries, chocolate chips, bananas, or some other add in? Are pancakes on your menu this week? 

I like to add chocolate chips and use Maple Syrup

Tell us about a time recently when you felt 'spread too thin'. 

I can’t think of one

What's your favorite jewel or gemstone? In terms of your wardrobe would we find more gemstones, pastels, black and white, or primary colours? 

My wardrobe has a good mix of black and colours such as purple, green and red. I don’t have a favourite jewel or gemstone.

What responsibility do you think is hardest about being in charge? 

Being in charge can mean assigning tasks to others and that can be difficult.

Insert your own random thought here. 

Words have power. So, speak positivity over your life. Declare blessings, call in goodness, and speak out the things you want to live. Say that things will work out, that the doors you need will open, that you will find peace, love, and prosperity.
Give thanks even for what has not happened yet, as if it were already yours. Because everything we speak with faith is planted in the world and it always returns to us multiplied.”
