A Happy Hodgepodge

 


Hi everyone, here is the latest hodgepodge

http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/2026/02/hodgepodge-questions-volume-660.html

1. What do you love most about your country? 

I feel that over all things are done right and people are generally treated with respect

2. Your favorite patriotic song? 

The first song that came to mind was “We are Australian”

3. Red, white, or blue? Stars or stripes? Something you own besides a US flag with some combination of those colours or decorations as part of its design? 

I don’t have anything, but I am an Aussie

4. What's one thing you want more of this summer: fun, rest, adventure, connection, quiet, or confidence? Elaborate. 

Time spent with family followed by time spent alone

5. What was your ultimate, go-to summer activity when you were a kid? Do you still do any version of that today? If you answered yes, does participating in this activity as an adult make you feel like a kid?  

Can’t think of anything, as a child I spent most of my time either outside playing or sitting and reading a book.

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

There is a quiet kind of happiness found in time spent with family. It lives in the familiar voices around the table, the shared laughter over small memories, and the comfort of being with people who know your story.

  1. What's one thing I want more of this summer. As soon as the summer is warm enough for swimming, I want to take the grandchildren to our closest beach.
    First we will have lunch in a beachside cafe, then I want to check their swimming standards, eat ice cream and check the penguins in their pool.

  2. I agree with your answer for #1. I don't know that song but it sounds like a good one. Yes, time spent with family is awesome and being alone can be nice too. Good for you reading as a kid. Nice random answer. Take Care.
