1. What’s your worst food memory? How about one of your best?
+ 
My siblings will tell you this is the worse combo of food ever. I was trying to be a gourmet and decided to make barbecue spaghetti. Everyone went hungry that night.
I have so many great food memories, but my favorite one happened this week. My daughter loves my sauteed squash and zucchini. It isn’t anything special. I just dice squash and zucchini and saute it in a pan in butter, salt, and pepper. I use a special butter blend that is supposed to lower cholesterol and is made with flax seed.
She pretended she was on a Food Network channel show and talks about the balance of flavor and health benefits. “It makes such a pretty presentation of yellow and green.” The next time I make this I am going to have to Vlog the whole thing so you can see her reaction. I think this is a winning recipe if you are trying to get your children to eat more vegetables.
2. Do you appreciate people telling it like it is, or would you rather a person temper his/her words, and maybe beat around the bush a little? How about when you’re the one communicating…which type are you?
3. What’s your favorite place to hang out?
5. What was the last concert you attended? Who’d you go with? Was it any good?
The last concert I remember is Tina Turner’s World Tour 1987. I attended on November 8, 1987 the University of South Carolina’s Coliseum. Remember, it was billed as her “retirement’ tour way back then. It was great so if I have gone to another concert since, it couldn’t have been too memorable.
6. Reality TV…harmful or harmless? What’s your guilty pleasure when it comes to reality TV?
7. What’s something you think is overrated? Other reality TV shows like “Big Brother.” I just don’t get it? Do you? Why do you like reality shows?
The reason I like this hop is because it ties into my blog’s mission statement. I am working on writing a mission statement as recommended by Christian Mommy Blogger. If you have not been to this site, you need to visit. The resources here are simply great which is why I have joined their affiliate program. My link is below.
Philippians 4:11-13
12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Any special prayer requests? Feel free to put them in the comments. Even if you put in an “unspoken,” I will pray for you. Even if you don’t fully share my faith, I want to be an encourager to you too. I will pray for anyone and everyone. Thanks.

I love Chopped too. Sometimes my daughter chatters her way thru a dish preparation as if she were on TV. She could have her own show, it’s so cute! I can see the appeal of some of the reality programs, but definitely do not get Big Brother!
Oh my gosh, my husband would be Sooooooooooo Jealous that you got to see Tina in concert. He has a fetish with her long legs. LOL
Ewwwwwwww, BBQ spaghetti, I think I’ll just have a peanut butter sandwich thank you very much. LOL
Thanks for visiting my blog. Hehehe, if you are planning on using my tomatoes, eat a snack before you come over. There are two maters the size of grapes…and that’s it (so far)! Love your answers to the hodgepodge questions. It’s a great way to get to know people. New subscriber to your blog. :O)
Hi Mary! I love the bloghop too, because I can learn so much about the participants!
I think the mission statement idea is such a good one. It will be fun to see what you come up with. Reality TV? Don’t take away my Duck Dynasty now, I love that show!
Happy Wednesday!

wow bbq & spaghetti!? O_o
I agree with the hype of reality tv! I do like Masterchef though! I gave up on American Idol, it just got too maddening when my favorite got voted off even when i voted 20 something times. I also am not a fan of Big Brother, Game of Thrones, or Downton Abbey like everyone else.
BBQ spaghetti? Yikes that’s not a good mixture at all, but I can see why you gave it a go.
Have a terrific day. ☺
