Good morning! I am linking up Joyce and Jenn today.
1. What do you love most about March?
I love the sunshine, the spring clothes, taking walks outside, seeing new blooms and things come to life. The season is a visible representation of a new season of life.
2. Hey! Did you know March is National Celery Month? Do you like celery? What's something you make (or like to order out) that calls for celery?
I am not a celery fan. The only way I can think of that I would eat celery would be in dressing I eat on Thanksgiving Day.
3. "You're Not Done" by Leeland and Charity Gayle is the soundtrack to my life right now.
4. Share a favorite motivational quote for overcoming challenges.
Be kind to yourself and give yourself grace. You're going to be okay.
(That may not sound like rocket science, but it is simple, profound and powerful truth in these familiar sayings.)
5. The Hodgepodge lands on Ash Wednesday this year. Do you participate in Lent in some way? If so tell us more.
It is not a yearly tradition for me, however, I have had a few lent seasons where I have given up something or tried to do a new positive practice in my life. With so much in life right now, I won't be participating this year.
6. Insert your own random thought here.

I like how you seamlessly blended the two sets of questions/prompts :). I will check out that chicken bowl recipe- it looks good and, too, am trying to eat healthier. I hope that you have felt super loved in the midst of this trying time. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind words and encouragement friend!
DeleteI agree with Marie for appreciating how you combined the two sets of prompts into one blog post! March does feel like a time of renewal and I'm ready for the warmer weather and sunny days! My older daughter hates celery too but will tolerate it in small doses in soups and things like that. Those recipes both look good. Wishing you a wonderful month!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Heather and same to you!
DeleteWe had similar thoughts on the month of March and the promise of Spring! That crispy chicken bowl looks amazing. Would you believe that I made dinner last night and never ate? I lost my appetite, so I put it in the fridge for today or Jonah, whichever comes first. I feel like I've listened to the song you mentioned, but I need to listen again. I hope you have a great day, my friend!
ReplyDeleteYes, now I need to get some sweet potatoes and make this!
DeleteI am loving March so far and the warmer weather that we are having.
ReplyDeleteYour motivational quote is fantastic advice and something I sometimes forget in tough times.
I love the look of that chicken soup. Yum!
Isn't even the slightest warm up of weather refereshing? Have a good day!
DeleteThose recipes both look good! I love the peek into spring we get in March, but I am so not a fan of the pollen which is crazy here in the spring. It's already started and ugh. April is generally the worst of it, but this year it has started early. Hope you have. a great day!
ReplyDeleteOh no. I haven't noticed it here yet, but I hope it won't be too bad. You too!
DeleteThose recipes look good and I'm loving having some more sunshine even if it's still a bit chilly here. Spring is definitely coming.
ReplyDeleteThose recipes do look so good! In true March fashion we have had nothing but high winds for 5 days now so I am, once again, feeling stuck inside and struggling to stay warm when we do venture out. BUT I am wearing more spring- like outfits anyway since I am getting so sick of my sweaters.
ReplyDeleteYes, the winds have been strong here as well!
DeleteBeautiful post
ReplyDeleteThanks
DeletePlease read my post
ReplyDeleteHello, we woke to 10 inches of snow and wind. March is coming in like a lion, I think. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI like the quote you shared, I am writing it down.

Oh my goodness! We had wind this week, but no snow. Oh March!
DeleteI didn't think about craving something besides food, but that's so true that I would love some family time!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a constant craving, isn't it?
DeleteI am loving the slightly better weather too and can't wait until it's nice to take walks again.
ReplyDeleteA nice walk outside is so good for us!
DeleteThat salad looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteI agree! Enjoy your day!
DeleteOh that sweet potatoe bowl looks amazing. I think I am going to start a board just for "bowls"! I love them when I eat out but don't make them too often (if ever) at home. Hmmm -
ReplyDeleteI don't make them a ton at home either, but would really like to do so!
DeleteThat crispy chicken bowl looks great. I enjoyed your answers.
