A Green Hodgepodge

 


St. Patrick's Day will be celebrated on Monday, March 17th. Did you mark the day in some way? Wear green? Make a special meal? Watch or participate in a parade? 

Nope St Paddy’s Day is just another day for me

Do you think luck plays a part in your life? Explain.

I think luck plays a part in everyone’s life, how well, I don’t know how to explain it, I just feel that it does. 

Of the 15 green foods listed, which one is your favourite and how do you like it prepared? Any on the list that are a hard no for you? In general, do you like fruits and veggies? As a kid did you eat them willingly or did you hide peas in your napkin hoping your momma wouldn't see? 

Asparagus, avocado, broccoli, celery, cucumber, grape, green bean, kale, kiwi, lettuce, lime, 

pear, peas, pistachios, spinach

I like grapes, pears and peas, although I prefer red or black grapes

What's something that makes you 'turn green'? (with envy or with illness... whichever way you want to run with it)

I really don’t do envy much so let me think of being made to feel yuck, most bad smells like when something dies.

Did you spend a lot of time outdoors as a child? Doing what? Do you spend a lot of time outdoors now? Doing what?

I spent a lot of time outside playing with my friend, now at 62 I don’t spend much time outside at all. 

Insert your own random thought here. 

People need to practice tolerance, patience, and compassion more, towards those who have become more slow, in movement and thoughts either with age or illness.

  1. We did have a corned beef from the local deli for lunch.
    I don't know if it's luck or circumstances.
    I like all of those green foods.
    With illness...mushrooms.
    I lived in a city neighborhood. We were outside all day, every day. Riding bikes, playing games, playing softball, messing around at the large pond nearby. No one watched what we were up to.
    People need to show more tolerance and empathy in general.

  2. bad smells can really make me feel sick as well. Totally agree with your random thought encouraging patience and compassion - we definitely need more of those qualities in our world! Hope you're having a great week!
