Wednesday Hodgepodge

It seems all I have time for is Wednesday´s hodgepodge. Sorry about the lack of posting, I´ll explain why in Nr. 8.

1. What's your favorite meal to serve on a chilly autumn evening?

Home made soup with  Mennonite Rollkuchen (pieces of fried dough). 

2. Are you a creature of habit? Explain.
Not really. I don´t mind changing things around. I love trying new recipes and don´t cook the same meals each week. I like to be spontaneous and don´t mind that much if my plans need to be changed.

3. What food product (no longer readily available) do you remember and miss from days gone by?

 I know these are still available, but not to me. Me and hubby love these candy bars and we miss them.
(Then again, now that I´m trying to eat less, it´s good they are not readily available over here)

4. What's something you've lost that you've never been able to find? Any theories as to what happened?

A pocket knife I used at work. I had it for 10 years and it was my letter opener. I also used it to remove those stubborn staples. One day I was removing many such staples from a pile of documents and somehow it got mixed up with the papers. When I thew the papers out that were trash the knife was scooped up and also thrown out. Never to be seen again.... :( I miss my knife.

5. Zoo~circus~ carnival...your favorite?

Circus. I´ve only been to one real circus, but I´d love to see it again.

6. What song makes you feel instantly happy?

I´m actually listening to lots of music lately. Since I´m walking more, it helps me to walk faster and longer. I love anything with a quick beat and don´t really know the artists that perform it.

7. To what extent are you an argumentative person?

My husband would say I´m VERY argumentative, but I think I´m not that bad. I´d rather give in, than have a long argument with someone. Even though I know I´m right.

8. Insert your own random thought here.

As you´ve noticed my posting is lacking. The reason is because I have two blogs.
I tried to "do" two blogs before but I can´t do it. One of them will suffer. As I wrote a while ago, I have started a journey to lose weight and this is my top priority at the moment. I have a different blog for that, because I joined a challenge as well. Yesterday I actually posted the wrong post on this blog instead of the other one. That´s when I realized it´s getting a bit much. For now I´m going to take a break here and will be focusing on changing my life style. Once in a while I will post mayor events here that I do not want to forget. But for now this is more important for me. I´ve lost 9 lbs. so far, but it´s hard. Being 50 and trying to diet is not as easy as it used to be. I need all my strength to do it, but I am feeling great and that is incentive enough.


I will be reading your blogs though and will comment as I have time.
