Time for Wednesday Hodgepodge with a new set of questions that Joyce From This Side of the Pond is asking.
1. Besides Thanksgiving (in the USA) what’s one thing you’re looking forward to in November?
Cozy clothes and sitting by a fire.
2. Do you like candles? Your favorite scent? How often do you burn a candle in your home?
I do like candles and I enjoy soft scents not overly sweet scents. We do not burn scented candles often but we do burn lots of birthday candles.
3. What gadgets did you use today?
A Sonicare toothbrush, a wooden spoon, and a measuring cup. A low gadget day. 🙂
4. This question is a repeat from one asked in November of 2014, but I liked it so it’s coming round again. Many of you weren’t here in 2014. Okay, you can have fifty pounds of something (anything but money)…what will you choose?
If gasoline came in pounds, I’d choose fifty pounds of gasoline for my car and lawnmower. Since it doesn’t, I’ll pick fifty pounds of flour.
Also, since I mentioned it…what were you up to in November of 2014?
In November of 2014 we were still living in Western Washington. We were getting to know our future daughter-in-law. Our son asked her to marry him soon after Thanksgiving.
5. ‘Tis the season…what’s something you’re feeling especially grateful for today?
I posted this quote from Martin Luther on Facebook Tuesday which was when I was working on the Hodgepodge. Yesterday was Reformation Day.
6. Insert your own random thought here.


Smiles on those “Halloween shenanigans”!
Cute Halloween photos. Take care, have a great day!
…I am grateful for our nice warm house, it’s snow this morning.
It is chilly in Alabama today. I think the low last night/early morning was 32. I imagine you need lots of cozy clothes for winter!!
Cozy clothes and sitting by a fire…sounds like my kind of living. 🙂 The Martin Luther quote is so precious. Thank you for sharing it. The Halloween costumes are so cute…especially the bowling ball and pin. 🙂
Hi, Oh, I just love the Halloween shenanigans. 🙂
Happy November!! Carla
The pin and bowling ball! So clever! I forgot about my electric toothbrush and my coffeemaker, both I use every day. Enjoy the rest of your week!
Aw yes, cozy clothes and sitting by the fire!!! And candles too – tis the season.
50lbs of flour would work! good answer
I wonder what 50 lbs of ice cream would like like. 🙂
I used my phone, garage opener, and computer.
When I listed gadgets I just wasn’t sure. I think of a coffee maker as a small appliance, and phones, computers, etc. as devices or electronics. I did use a measuring spoon which I forgot to list. Your wooden spoon reminded me.
We just got back from visiting a friend in northern NH. It snowed up there all day on Monday and a wood fire felt wonderful.
You certainly enjoy your hallowe’ens. Great costumes. B x
I enjoy your photos. so nice. I also love candles, but I’m cautious with scents. The thought of it being toxic and spreading in my room is not pleasant. If I had to choose, I would go for the vanilla scent.

Sounds like sweet memories from 2014, and I love the Martin Luther quote and all the costumes! Have a blessed week!
It is hard for me to believe that we are in November already! I am looking forward to cozy clothes too . . . and also cozy foods and Thanksgiving visitors.
Love the Martin Luther quote! Powerful truth!
I’m in Western Washington! Cute Halloween photos. I am looking forward to a cozy November as well.
I enjoyed reading your answers. You are right about the gasoline. I paid $4.99 a gallon yesterday and was happy. It’s sad to be happy about that price but it was the best so far. Lovely quote you shared. Love the Halloween photos!
Realized I never commented from last week, so better late than never. I hope you have an amazing November. Enjoyed your answers. haha…gas is a good answer..
