Hello, dear friends. My friend, Beansie sent me this clever quote, so I made a nifty little poster for you. How is your week going? Does it feel shorter? Not so much to me - I'm just constantly confused as to what day it is. I just looked at my phone, and it tells me it's Wednesday. You know what that means.
It's time for Hodgepodge.
1. What makes you feel accomplished? Explain.
It doesn't take much to make me feel like I have accomplished something. A small thing like zipping up my ever-shrinking jeans is a call for celebration. And maybe an extra cookie.
Having these two hooligans listen to me and both look at the camera at the same time is another cause for me to give myself a pat on my back fat.
I never thought it was possible for a dog to look bored but now I have two that have conquered the look. The last time I saw that expression, my kids were teenagers.

2. If you had your own talk show, who would your first three guests be? Tell us why.
If I had my own talk show, I would be the happiest girl in the world. That would be my dream job.
First, I would like to interview Kathy Lee and Hoda because I know that they would supply the beverages.
Btw... I'm counting them as one guest.
Secondly, I would like to interview Oprah because I would hope she would bring me a new car as a hostess gift.
And the third person on my guest list is Andy Cohen for two reasons. I would want to hear every ounce of inside scoop about the reality stars on my favorite Bravo shows. Also, I would hope that Andy would reciprocate and ask me to be the official bartender in the clubhouse.

3. Do you have a great burger recipe? What's in it? What do you like on a hamburger and where is your favorite spot to order one out?
I do not have a great burger recipe.
Aren't you shocked?

Many years ago, I lived in the Chicago burbs. My favorite place for a burger was Hackney's. It was served on rye bread, and the first bite was so delish, it made my eyes water. They also serve the best darn onion loaf I have ever had.
Rumor has it that it is not quite as good as I remember it.
4. What's the biggest anxiety producing thing you do on a regular basis?
I sit down and write a blog post.
5. This is the last Hodgepodge of May.
Tell us about your summer plans.
This weekend, my #1, Adorable Jonathon, his twin, Adorable Michael, and their parents are coming for lunch. They are vacationing in the area. I can't wait to see them.
The rest of the summer will include a trip to Texas and Atlanta, hosting a neighborhood party, getting a few tattoos, joining a roller derby team, and plenty of day trips.

6. Insert you own random thought here.
Today is National Autonomous Vehicle Day, National Save Your Hearing Day, National Speak in Sentences Day, and National Senior Health and Fitness Day.
Do you think those poor people in charge of naming the days may be scraping the bottom of the barrel?
Bad news, folks: it's only May!
There is good news for people like me.
It's also National Macaroon Day!

Who would you like as a guest on your talk show?
Until next time...
