WEDNESDAY HODGEPODGE #458

Thank you Joyce.

1. Do you celebrate Easter? If so what are your plans this year? Did you have egg hunts as a kid? 

Yes, I like to celebrate Easter. It has been awhile since I have been to an Easter service at a church. We used to have the kids over for dinner and we would make a Prime Rib. 

Since Amber and Dylan moved to Montana and since Adam and Gabby got married we have been going out for a breakfast buffet with Adam & Gabby along with members of her family. It's always a nice day. Then we go over to their house and the kids do an Easter egg hunt. 

2. What's your favorite bread to find in a bread basket? 

It would be a Pumpernickel bread.

3. Your favorite chick flick? 

I have so many that I like. It's difficult for me to pick a favorite. 

4. Tax day is rapidly approaching in the US of A...what's something you currently find 'taxing'? 

Life in general has been taxing for me. As I'm typing this Mark is working on our taxes. 

5. Have you ever ridden in a taxi? Do you have a funny-scary-crazy-interesting taxi story to share? Do you use any of the newer taxi-like services such as Uber? 

Yes, I have ridden in a taxi and yes, we have used the newer services like Uber. It's pretty much the only way to get around in New York City. I did have one scary taxi ride once in Las Vegas once. The guy was just driving super fast and taking some scary back roads behind the main strip. All was well. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

Sorry I haven't gotten around to posting about our trip to Montana. I did post some photos on Facebook from the drive. Hopefully I will get around to writing a post soon. Just feeling a bit down lately. 




All the best to you and your family on Easter Sunday.

I do celebrate EAster. My daughter will be cooking dinner. I can't remember ever having egg hunts when I was a kid. I do remember taking my kids to a few though.

since it is just bob and I, we don't celebrate holidays. growing up with my parents Easter was always BIG we died dozens of eggs, we had egg hunts in our back yard before easter and on easter before church, we went to church and came home to a big Easter Ham dinner, and the families all got together. there was always a basket even when we were teens and told mother to stop it. Mother was the queen of holiday celebrations I AM MY DAD.. opposite
I have two favorite chick flicks, Sabrina and Sabrina. the old one and the newer one with Harrison Ford, if I had to pic one I could not between the two of them. they are the only chick flicks watched multible times each except for Pretty Woman which Bob loves so i nixed the chick flix

Yes we celebrate Easter...always have...
Being active in church has always been part of our lives so we will be going to Good Friday services and Easter morning too.
Easter is a family day for us, whether it's just Dave and I or extended friends and family. This year we will be at friends home for a BBQ for over 20 people. Lots of fun and food.
I always got an Easter basket as a kid..(I'm an only child) and our boys had baskets with a jelly bean bunny trail leading from their rooms to the baskets in the living room. We did it all...
Favorite bread is real sourdough..makes my mouth water thinking about it.
Tax day is taxing...doing the finishing touches on it today and off it goes..YAY !!
When Dave and I were in the Trade show convention business we were always riding in taxis, especially in NYC. Almost got into a terrible accident in Chicago. The car that sideswiped us went on to plow into a huge truck. The person in the car didn't make it. The steering wheel impaled him. shook us up pretty good for sure.
Sold some more things on eBay so now its time to wrap them and off to the post office..The sun is shining today so we are off to a good start.

Debby I am wishing you a joy-filled Easter and brighter days ahead. Enjoy time with James and your son and daughter-in-law. I would love to have mine here, but they're coming this way soon and that will be fun too. Take care.

I love the idea of a holiday breakfast buffet. You know, we can't wait to see photos of precious James hunting those colored eggs!

Happy Easter to you and yours Debby! Is James going to color the Easter eggs or do they hide plastic eggs? I know you will enjoy the time spent with them on Easter!

That does sound like a scary taxi ride. Were you by yourself in it?

I did enjoy the pictures of your ride to Montana and back that you shared on Facebook. It is always such a pretty drive!

So your favorite bread is Pumpernickel? I like it but not my favorite.
I love Easter. My favorite holiday. We will go out to eat as well.
We have already done and sent in taxes.
Hugs again.

I LOVe Easter it is more important than Christmas as far as CHristian holidays go. The great grands went to an egg hunt last Sunday in their community. Shea was a bit overwhelmed but Harrison is a pro at it because he goes with the older kids. I never thoguht I would see that day. He was such a little guy. ;-(

Enjoy your celebrastion with James.

Enjoy the weekend.

I did my taxes about a week ago, which is unusually late for me.
Happy Easter!
