WEDNESDAY HODGEPODGE #394


Thank you Joyce.
Click HERE to play along.


1. It's the 11th day of the 11th month and bloggers often make lists on days like today. Let's go with a list of eleven things you're feeling grateful for today.

God, Family, Love, Health, Home, Food, Friends, Freedom, Memories, Photos and Sunshine!

2. What's something you decided to do or act on at the '11th hour'?  

Honestly I'm not sure and my mind goes blank when I'm put on the spot. I'm going to go with our trip to Montana in September. I was so scared because I am basically home all the time and I wasn't sure how safe we would be. 

3.  Apparently the Kentucky Fried Chicken recipe contains 11 herbs and spices. What's a dish you make that calls for exactly eleven ingredients? Feel free to share the list and/or recipe. 

Over the years with Pinterest I sometimes find a recipe that I really want to try so I print them out. So I decided to look at my stack of recipes and one that I recently made has 11 ingredients. I actually like it! 

Keto Ground Beef Casserole

4. Something you remember about your 11-year old self? 

Sorry, I'm never good when I'm put on the spot. 

5. The 11th of November is Veterans Day in the US of A. This is a day to honor those who have served their country in war or peace-dead or alive-although according to the government's website it's largely intended to thank living veterans for their sacrifices. 

Memorial Day is when we honor military personnel who died in service to their country. 

Share a thought relating to Veterans Day or tell us something about a Veteran you know-love-admire. 

We appreciate our son in law Dylan for his service in the Marines. His group was the first to enter the Palace of Saddam Hussein. 

6. Insert your own random thought here.

Martha said...

Send Dylan a big thank you!

Chatty Crone said...

Tell Dylan thank you and thanks to all our vets.

Gloria said...

Thank Dylan for serving our country.
I enjoyed your answers and your random thought.
Have a good Wednesday my friend.

Wow. Gratitude and respect to Dylan!
Thank you so much for sharing the link to this keto-friendly casserole. I love everything about it; not so much Tom who refuses to eat beans. I like that it allows for substitutions.

the last one is impossible for me, I am a paranoid, conspiracy theroy, murphys law thrown in to the mix, believer. I hate cooking and am pretty sure i have never made anything that has 11 ingredients. i am famous for one pot, 3 ingreditets. also never leave decisions to the 11th hour, i make them way to soon sometimes... Thank you to all veterans for your service

Thank you Dylan and all of our wonderful veterans.

I couldn't think of an 11th hour decision, but now that I think of it, many of my Shutterfly photo projects have been last-minute creations.

11 ingredients ... I'm sure that I have recipes that take that many, but I seldom use them. I was too lazy to search for one.

Love your random thought Debby!!

Thanking Dylan for his service to our country and thanking Amber too because didn't they get married shortly before he was deployed?

I'll have to try that recipe out. Usually when looking at a list of ingredients if it is over 10 I shy away but this one does sound delicious.

I remember 11 as a real awkward age LOL.

I'm going to check out your recipe. With all this home cooking I'm always looking for something new to try. Thank you to Dylan for his service to our country. We have a short memory, but those were trying times indeed. Have a nice day Debby!

Thank you, Dylan for your service.
WOW.. that is something to be the first to enter the Palace of Saddam Hussein!

Willow said...

Our Marines and soldiers did so much in Iraq! God bless them all!
My list of thankfulness is like yours. And yes! Sunshine! (having just moved FROM SoCal, I miss my sunshine!)
Enjoy this coming week as your look for more blessings.

That's a good quote, thank you. Very applicable for this time it seems!

I'm thankful for sunshine too and have really enjoyed it lately.

ellen b. said...

Wow...that must have been surreal to head into the Palace. Thankful for his service. Great quote!

Mara said...

That last thought is a good one. I have to remember it.

Michelle said...

I love your grateful list, Debby!
