This weeks's hodgepodge

 

Here I am doing another hodgepodge which is brought to you by Joyce over at http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/

Here are this week’s questions.  

1. Next Sunday is Grandparent's Day. Share a favorite memory, photo, recipe, or something you learned from a grandparent. 

My grandmother always said to take of my skin and to moisturise daily and stay out of the hot sun, if I wasn’t wearing a hat. She also told me to hand my daily troubles over to God before going to sleep.

2. What's a quote from a book \(besides The Bible) that has stayed with you? 

Can’t think of one

3. What's your number one food pet peeve?

People who tell me to just try it because they think I will like it, when I have clearly said no thank you, I’m not interested. 

4. What's one thing about you that is still the same as it was when you were young?

I couldn’t think of anything, so I asked my family and they all said my smile, so that’s what I’m going with.

5. September is National Preparedness Month...does your family have an emergency plan? Do you have some sort of preparedness kit you keep on hand? If so, tell us one thing that's kept there.

Emergency plan? Nope we don’t it isn’t something we have ever considered but where we live, we don’t get floods, bushfires, cyclones or anything else like that. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

So many of us live life in the fast lane rushing here and there and not taking the time to enjoy stuff, so it is important to at times to just slow down. To intentionality just stop for a bit and just sit and listen to the sound of a clock ticking, or the sound of birds outside your home.

 

Here is this weeks Tuesday 4 and guess what I am posting it on Tuesday, damn

 

Welcome back to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4, who can be found here: https://lemonscottage.blogspot.com/

The longest living cat on record, Creme puff, lived to be 38 years old and was given coffee at breakfast all his life.  Breakfast for him was bacon, eggs, broccoli and coffee.

The previous owner of the record was Grandpa Rex Allen who\ lived to be 34 years old on the same diet.

Coffee reduces chances of Alzheimer’s, Parkinsons.  

Tea without adding milk can "tan" your bladder making for many problems Milk binds the tunic acid making it safe to drink.

Homemade food increases an animal's life span too.  Let's talk about it, okay?

1. Coffee increases a bee's memory and does the same for you. Bees love caffeinated coffee flowers.  What do you love about coffee or tea?

Nothing at all, can’t stand the taste or smell of coffee, use to drink tea but don’t like that much either.

2. If you opened a tea or coffee shop in your neighbourhood, what would it be named?  How would you decorate it? Would pastry or cake be served?

Ok if I did open a beverage shop it would be a hot chocolate one and the pastries and cake would contain chocolate.

                           

3. Beethoven required 60 beans per cup of coffee.  How particular are you about your coffee or tea?

I am very particular; it would have to smell and taste like hot chocolate.

4.Italian clergy in1600s declared coffee the devil's brew and forbid it.

Pope Clement the VIII wanted to taste it, loved it and blessed it ... today, new research shows black coffee is drunk mainly by psychopaths... 

Sweden banned coffee in 1746 as dangerous, and Islam banned it for causing free thinking!

How do you take your coffee you free thinking, radical and what's your favorite brand of devil's brew?

First people had weird thoughts about coffee, I don’t like it but I don’t think it is the devil’s brew and since I don’t like it I have no favourite brand, although hubby likes Nescafe

I stole this on Sunday and post it now on Tuesday

 

Here are some questions I found over here.

https://sundaystealing.blogspot.com

Welcome to Sunday Stealing, 

Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. Cheers

I stole them from Ann who stole them from a blogger named Idzie, who called this the F.A.B. (film, audio, book) meme.

 

F.A.B.

F. Film: What movie or tv show are you watching? 

At the moment Tim and I are watching Outback Truckers an Aussie show about real life men and women who drive some pretty damn long trucks in the outback of Australia.

A. Audio: What are you listening to?

As I sit here and write this I can hear the ticking of the clocks and the sound of birds outside, with one tapping on the glass door to get my attention, they want me to feed them.

B. Book: What are you reading?

I am reading a My Story book called No Way Back by Valerie Wilding, I am really enjoying these books.

And there you have it ... another week has begun.   Japanese scientists have found that when people agree on something changes can happen. When people pray, changes occur and when they are thankful even water will purify.

Let's agree with one another that this will be a wonderful week for us all.
