A Happy Hodgepodge

Good morning, dear friends.  I hope that you all are having a good week.  I survived the Marathon.  Thanks for asking.  My back is killing me!  It's not easy watching three straight hours of 
TV.

If it's Wednesday,  it's time for Hodgepodge.

1.  Tell us about a time you felt you were "flying by the seat of your pants."

Every time the Mister comes home and announces "We're moving!" 

2.  When or where would you like to be a "fly on the wall?"

Three guesses.

3.  "Happiness is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder." - Henry David Thoreau

Would you agree?  Why or why not?

I agree wholeheartedly. 

I'll match you quote for quote. 

4.  Share a favorite movie, book, or song with flying in its title, lyrics, or theme somewhere.

One of my favorite movies.

This song immediately came to mind.

Nobody can sing it like Ol' Blue Eyes.

5.  What's one task or chore that you tend to do 'on the fly?'  Is this something that really needs to be done another way?

I should do a better job cleaning the inside of my car.

There are many things I miss about Texas.  One of the biggest luxuries that I find difficult to live without is full-service car washes.  There's no greater feeling than driving out of the parking lot with a shining, sweet smelling car.  

When I went to my first car wash around here, I asked if they offered full-service.  The guy answered tersely "ye mean do we dry it?"

Can't beat the eye candy, though.

6.  What was happening the last time you thought to yourself or said aloud "wow, time flies when you're having fun" and you mean it. 

I think that exact thought every month when I am in the company of my lovely book club friends.

7.  This Thursday is National Garlic Day.  Will you add garlic to your menu on Thursday?  What's your favorite dish made with garlic?

I love garlic.  The first time I visited the North End, which is famous for its fabulous Italian restaurants, I thought I was in heaven.  I love anything and everything with garlic.

8.  Insert you own random thought here.

I leave you with an uplifting moment.  Make sure to watch the video to see the highlight of this beautiful teacher's wedding day. 

Until next time...

I need to hire this guy.
