1. March is rolling on out of here. Sum up your March in ten words or less. 

March was kinda quite. Not a lot of doctor's appointments. However, for the past 8 days I have been dealing with lung issues. It's been extremely hard on me. 

I didn't want to go to the ER because they do nothing different than I do at home, except for a chest x-ray. 

2. Are you afraid of heights? When was the last time you found yourself dealing with a height, and did it make you nervous?

I can't say that I am but I imagine I could be. I can't remember anything dealing with height recently.

3. What's a word you struggle to spell on a regular basis, and sometimes need to double check before writing it down? Use the word in a sentence that tells us something about your April calendar. 

Nothing is coming to mind but I believe there are several. I'm always looking up the spelling of something.

Sorry, not a lot of answers from me today.  

4. Love 'em or hate 'em, with Easter comes the sweet treat known as Peeps. So... do you love 'em or hate 'em? Speaking of peeps, what's your favorite way to have chicken? 

I have enjoyed them in the past. Now they have a lot of flavors that also sound pretty good to me. 

I like chicken on the grill. We also like chicken from Costco from time to time. 

5. This week's Hodgepodge lands on the first day of April, which happens to be National Poetry Month. Do you like poetry?  Share a favorite line or two from one of your favorite poems. What makes this one a favorite? 

Poetry is okay but I can't say that I read it often at all. I will just have to go with.....

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

Adam, Gabby and James are on a cruise with Gabby's sister, husband and their two kids. They went to Cabo San Lucas. They should be home today.

1. It's officially spring in the northern hemisphere. Does it feel like spring in your part of the world? If you're in the southern hemisphere it's officially autumn where you live. Does the weather say autumn? Which do you prefer-spring or autumn? Why? 

No it is feeling like summer right now. Actually it is feeling even hotter than our summers. However we are supposed to cool down and feel like Spring in a few days. It has been around 100 degrees. Thankfully we don't get humidity. 

2. What's your favorite thing about spring? 

I'm not sure I have a favorite thing about Spring. I guess I could say the flowers that bloom. We generally have some pretty nice weather year-round in Southern California.

3. Spring into action, spring in your step, spring to life, spring to one's feet...which spring idiom currently applies to your life in some way? Explain.  

Actually I would like to do all of those right now but it's not happening with my ankle issue. Things have gotten really depressing on my end but I will push forward and try to be happy. 

4. Which spring food from this list is your favorite? What's a dish you like that includes your favorite spring ingredient? 

asparagus, strawberries, salad greens like mesclun, artichokes, spinach, eggs, peas, spring onions

I like spinach a lot. I saute it and add eggs, scrambling it together. I eat salad greens and I like asparagus too. 

5. What's one task on your spring cleaning list? Do you actually have a list? 

I do not have a Spring cleaning list but everything needs to be cleaned. I'm am pushing myself daily to accomplish something that needs to be cleaned. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

We saw Adam, Gabby and James on Friday night last week. It was a great evening. We played some Bunko, had pizza. Also Papa and James had a lot of fun playing with some small nerf guns. 

It will be awhile before we see them, they are going on a cruise. We will be going to their house for Easter Sunday.
