1. St.
Patrick's Day lands on March 17th. Do you believe in luck? Are there things you
do thinking they'll bring good luck or things you avoid because
they're considered bad luck? I don't think I believe in "luck" per se! I have been known to say, "good luck" to people. I actually do not like for a black cat to run across the street in front of me. I also like to take down my Christmas tree before the new year. My son quotes someone from The Office -- "I'm not superstitious, but I am a little stitious."
2.
Forest-lime-sage-mint-olive-emerald...what's your favorite shade of
green? I think Emerald - the yellow greens are not my friend, but deep green is one of my best colors to wear.
3. In Ireland
the meal on this day is often a hearty beef or lamb stew served with colcannon
(mashed potato mixed with cabbage and leeks). In the US corned beef and cabbage
is the more typical St. Patty's Day meal. Will you/did you mark the day with
one of these dishes? Baked-fried-roasted-mashed...what's your favorite way to
eat a potato? I don't like corned beef. I need to get someone who is a great cook to make some for me because I might like a "good" corned beef. I do love lamb or beef stew. We are hosting the Young Adults on Tuesday night and we are having Taco Tuesday on St. Patrick's Day haha! I love french fries. I would eat them every day if they didn't make me fat! I do enjoy a baked potato or a roasted potato or mashed potato . . .or potato soup. I love potatoes, but don't eat them every day.
4. What color
of the rainbow best represents your personality/mood today? Tell us why. Rainbows make me smile! I love to spot one in the sky. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet - which one am I today? I am all pink today because it is Laetare Sunday - a "mini" celebration during Lent. The color for the day is "rose." I have on a pink dress and pink earrings.
5. Which
'lucky' quote resonates with you. Elaborate.
'Luck
is not something you can mention in the presence of self-made men.' E.B.
White
'Diligence is the mother of good luck." Benjamin Franklin
'Luck is where opportunity meets preparation.' Seneca - I am going to choose this one. I had to look up "Who is Seneca?" Now I know!
'Shallow men believe in luck. Strong men believe in cause and effect.' Ralph
Waldo Emerson
6. Insert your
own random thought here. Spring is springing all over Alabama. Our cars are yellow. The trees and plants are showing new growth. Achoo!
I love potatoes too. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOur pollen season arrives in June.
And bless you to your achoo!
Oh boy...I guess it is pollen season where you live. I hope it isn't bad this year. I'm still brain challenged as my sleep pattern is still not good from the trip. Your outfit for last Sunday sounded very pretty! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteI read that quote from The Office for the first time earlier today and I feel like that, a little stitious.
ReplyDeleteAhh! I would eat French fries every day too, just a shame they're not good for us!
I am looking forward to spring and the warmer months but not to the pollen and allergies!
We're seeing a lot of yellow here too. Ugh. We've had a fair amount of rain this week and that helps bring it down. I rarely eat french fries. I let my hubs order them and I'll have one or two of his. It's one of those foods (I love them) where I can feel the pounds going on as I consume them. Maybe an exaggeration but it feels true. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your answers. That office quote is so funny. Someone else shared that too
ReplyDeleteI love when the weather gets warmer but I don't love the return of pollen!
