It's a May Day Hodgepodge!!

 Thank you, Joyce, for today's Hodgepodge!!  Y'all can be Hodgepodgers HERE!

Hodgepodge Questions-Volume 549

1. Mayday! Mayday!...when was the last time (or a recent time) you literally or figuratively needed to call for help?   I was happy to have my son, Joey, do my tax return for me and to also take the huge and very heavy file cabinet out of the 'den' for me.  He and Darlene can use it for the Horse Sanctuary.  Elaborate.  I didn't have to do my own tax return and some space was made for me to fill up with other stuff.  Not really something to call mayday for but it was a HUGE help!

2. May Day...when was the last time you danced?  It's been a long time.  Do you have a lot of baskets?  I do. Sigh.  What's something you keep in a basket?  Coverlets, pillows, cat toys, cat toys, did I say cat toys?  Office supplies, sewing supplies...  What's your favorite purple flower?  Lilacs.

3. What's something you may do this month?  I am planning to go to Mayfaire in a couple of weeks.  My long-time readers know that my former employer, Polk Museum of Art, hosts a fine art festival every year (52 years, I think) on the banks of our beautiful Lake Morton.  There will be around 180 artists, food trucks, my old friends/co-workers, and wonderful art to enjoy.  

4. Do you like eggplant?  It's okay.  Not a favorite.   Quick topic changes lol? If you said yes in answer to the eggplant question how do you like yours prepared? Of the following purple foods, which one is your favorite...plums, purple carrots, purple asparagus, eggplant, acai berries, blackberries, purple cauliflower, elderberries, purple potatoes, or passion fruit?  I'll go with plums and blackberries.  I don't think I've had any of the other purple foods.

5. The calendar turns on Hodgepodge Day...

"Then you have to remember to be thankful; but in May one simply can't help being thankful that they are alive, if for nothing else."-L.M. Montgomery

Tell us one thing you're thankful for today.  I am thankful for a new day!!  I am thankful for my friends and safe travels for some.  I am thankful for the power of prayer and ask you prayer warriors to remember our blogging friend, Martha Jane and her husband, Danny, who had heart surgery yesterday.  Waiting to hear how it all went and praying for quick and perfect healing.

6. Insert your own random thought here.  I got an 'all clear' at the dermatologist yesterday!  I go every six months because I had a couple of pre-melonoma spots removed.  I will still go every six months, but am sure happy she didn't find anything to cut out this time!  Hooray!

Peace and Hugs!!

Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!!
