Jo From This Side of the Pond is back this week a new set of Wednesday Hodgepodge questions!
1. What puts a spring in your step these days?
Getting small and large tasks accomplished.
2. April 2nd was National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day. Did you celebrate? Do you like PB and J? If so how do you like yours? What’s your favorite kind of jelly?
No peanut butter celebrations here in the past week. Yum and yes to PB and J. Toast with peanut butter and honey is a favorite. When enjoying PB with jam give me raspberry or strawberry please.
3. What’s a memory you associate with spring flowers?
The Skagit Valley Tulip festival in Washington State and visiting Roozengaarde farm and garden in Mt. Vernon, Washington. Skagit is the county where you find the towns that grow tulips in abundance. We’ve enjoyed tulip farms and tulips in Mt. Vernon and La Conner.
4. Three things on your spring bucket list? Do you have a spring bucket list? If not pretend you do.
- Drop some pounds.
- Travel over to the ‘coast’.
- Start mowing the lawn again.
5. One place you will travel this spring? (It might be Europe or it might be the grocery store)
Waiting on our passports which needed renewing so no out of country trips this Spring. We will for sure travel south to Spokane for shopping at the big box stores. Hopefully (see #4) we will get a trip to the other side of the Cascades on the books.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
Speaking of the tulip festival…
You don’t have to go all the way to Amsterdam to enjoy tulips galore.

Hello,
I would love to see the tulip festival, gorgeous flowers and images. Take care, enjoy your day!
…Tiny Tim and I are in in seventh heaven!
Always have fun reading your Hodge Podge, and those tulips are gorgeous!
Tiptoe through the tulips! As always, I enjoyed visiting and I love your photos!
Wow! Those tulips are amazing! Maybe the tulip festival needs to go on my spring bucket list … not for this spring, though.
I would choose the same jams as you with my pb sandwich!
What beautiful tulips. I would love to see that someday!!
My girls and I went to see the Skagit tulips one year and we all loved it. The photos have recently popped up on my Facebook memories and I am still amazed by them. Drop some pounds is on my perpetual to-do list : )
Love these posts where I learn more about you.
Oh I recognize those tulip pictures! Our son-in-law’s sister is coming out from New Jersey in a couple weeks and we’re all planning to go to Roozengaarde. Can’t wait to get some new family pictures with Peter and his sister!
Gorgeous tulips! That is a sight I would love to see!
I don’t want to talk about answer 4.1. But it’s on mine too . . .
I love peanut butter, honey, and bananas on toast. That’s my ultimate comfort food.
Wow, the tulip festival looks lovely. I should have written about the flowers in Carlsbad, CA. Hopefully we will check them out in a few weeks. I need to renew my passport. I keep putting it off! Enjoyed reading all of your answers. I’m going to have some PB with celery in a little while.
Spectacular tulip farm photos! They are such colorful and cheerful spring flowers! We canceled many trips due to covid but hope to be able to travel again soon after getting another booster.
Gorgeous photos. I have not been up to the Skagit Valley tulip festival, but I have been to the Wooden shoe one in Woodburn.
Wow, Ellen. I must put a visit to the Tulip Festival on my lifetime bucket list!
