G It's the Hodgepodge

I haven't been consistent with this but here we go!  Joining in with Joyce at From This Side Of The Pond  Grateful to have found something that helps keep this blog going.  

1. Egg on your face, putting all your eggs in one basket, a good egg, walk on eggshells, nest egg, or a tough egg to crack...which eggy idiom currently applies to your life in some way? Explain

Hmm?  I could say I can relate to all of those expressions.  Depending on the moment.  

2. April 7th is National Beer Day...are you a beer drinker? If so do you have a favorite? Beer battered fish, beer bread, beer can chicken, beer brats...which one sounds good to you? Have you made any of these? 

I am not a fan of beer.  Growing up my family were always Budweiser kind of people, never do they have a get together or party without it.  I've also grown up seeing the effects of alcohol in a very negative way so it's never appealed to me much.  Although there have been times when I've met up with a friend for a drink ... pretending to like what I was tasting.  

I cannot remember ever trying anything that is made with beer.  

3. Do you have siblings? What's the best thing about being your sibling? If you don't have siblings, what would you say are the pros and cons of being an only child? 

I am the youngest of 4 - one brother and two sisters.  My brother, the oldest, is sixteen years older than me.  My sister is 14 years older than me and my next sister is 7 years older than me.  They are far apart in age from me.  My mom started young and was in her thirties when I was born.  As I was growing up they were already grown and into different things but once I became an adult it felt as though we could relate so much better to each other.  However, the sad thing is they all stayed on Long Island when we moved to Pennsylvania so we aren't close.  I do love them with all my heart.  

What's the best part about being my sibling?

I'm their prayer warrior!  

4. How do you feel about floral scents in products? Do you have a favorite?

I think the only floral scent I like is lavender.  Lavender has a pretty scent and it also helps with relaxation.  That's a win for me.  

5. What's one thing in your home that begins with the letter G that you would say is a keeper, something you'll hold on to? Tell us why. 

I guess I'll say glasses.  These were gifted to us on our wedding from my mother-in-law and they are so pretty.  We have only used them a few times on rare occasions.  It's also a miracle with my clumsiness I have yet to break any.  

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

There are two trees in the front of my yard that sit on each side of the driveway.  They were already here when we moved in and it's taken 21 years to find out what they are.  With the help of my husband showing me how to research things on my phone, by taking a picture and asking Google herself ... we discovered that these trees are Star Magnolias.
