Love is in the Hodgepodge

Is it Wednesday already? How does that happen? Time never stands still, does it? It continues to march forward with a vengeance. I'll take it, until June 3. And then, I want it to slow down and stay slowed down.

It's time for us to march forward with this week's Hodgepodge!

1. Create an acrostic using the word LOVE. If you're unsure what an acrostic is click here.

Laughing  
Over
Virtually
Everything

2. Does love really conquer all? In my mind it does. As long as it's true love and not pretend love. Why or why not? Because love doesn't hold grudges or keep score. Love is forgiving and understanding. Love let's go and moves forward. Love is uplifting and positive. Love is truthful and courageous. Who wouldn't be won over by that? 

3. Tell us about a time recently, where you really put your heart into something. I really put my heart into a particular Christmas gift. I've not put it in much since then, though. 

4. What's your favorite fictional love story? That's tough, but I'm going to go with, 

THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO. My favorite part is that, after all those years apart, their love is still alive and well. 

5. Do you generally wear your heart on your sleeve, or keep your cards close to the vest? I don't like to admit it but I wear my heart on my sleeve and pretend not to do so. 


6. What food says love to you? Anything that my grandmother cooked. Why? Because she put her heart into every single meal every single day. She loved us and she showed us in her actions and in her cooking. 

7. When were you last 'tickled pink' over something? Thanksgiving. Explain. That's the day I found out I was going to have my very first grandchild! 

8.  Insert your own random thought here. Winter temps have arrived, which is a good thing. But they forgot to bring some precipitation, which is not a good thing. Basically, we're freezing, for nothing. :) 


Ah, but there is a three day weekend ahead and that is better than nothing. 

Have a great rest of the week, y'all!

    1. UGH. I can't take those. We're going to be cold through Tuesday of next week. But it's another winter without winter weather. No fun.

    1. Now, any number with a negative sign ahead of it is not a real number. Haha! There is such a thing as too cold. I'd be in front of a heater until it warmed up to freezing. :) You have a good one too!

  7. Love is funny, it can find you unexpectedly and yes, conquer all. I recently fell in love and feel like I can take on the world with my new guy.
