Hodgepodge Wednesday Free

 

1. Security or freedom? Can you have both? Explain.
If you feel secure then you can be free to be yourself. I think you can have both.

2. If you could visit any historical American site what would it be? Why?
I would go visit the Smithsonian Museums in DC.  I have always loved history, I got my first degree in History.  I didn't get to do much with it but I would have loved to be a museum curator or work in an archive.

3. Free as a bird, free reign, be free of, free enterprise, free trip, walk away scot free, free for all...which 'free' phrase can best be applied to your life in recent days or weeks? Explain.
This is a tough one.  Free reign comes closest. I have free reign to create dinner menus, decorate the house, read any book I feel like, and just a bit of free reign at work as to projects I do, as long as I do what needs to be done around those projects.

4. Something in your fridge that's red? Something in your house that's white? Something in your view that's blue?
Red: cherries, raspberries and grapes.
White: all the trim in our new house is white.  It isn't my favorite, but we get the fun of changing the trim to something more our taste.
Blue: The couple painting Nick and I did, Nick's side of the painting is a blue night with the moon.

5. July 27th is National New Jersey Day. Have you ever visited The Garden State? If so where did you go? Are there diners where you live? Have you tried Taylor Pork Roll? Do you like to play Monopoly? Salt water taffy-yay or nay? How do you feel about shopping at the mall? Springsteen, Sinatra, or Bon Jovi-you have to pick one.

Raise your hand if you know why these add-on questions are appropriate on National NJ Day.

I have visited the Garden State, but I was 12 and on my way to visit my aunt in New York City.
We do have a Diner, Johnny J's, great burgers and shakes. No on the Pork Roll. Not a fan of Monopoly. Love Salt water taffy. I like the mall, but the ones around here are fading. I am a die hard Bon Jovi fan.  Bruiser is a big fan too.
 
6. Insert your own random thought here.
So we are moved into the new house.  The unpacking is ongoing. But we have had a bit of fun.  Four wheelers in the back yard.  A bit of time downtown.
