Please check out our host and others at From This Side of the Pond here.
1. Are you a naturally trusting person? Is trust built on logic or 'gut instinct'? Does everyone deserve a second chance? Elaborate.
3. Do you like a Caesar salad? If given the choice between a garden/house salad or Caesar which do you order? Anchovies or no? What's your favorite salad dressing?
I will eat Caesar Salad if I am offered it and there is not another option and DEFINTLY that is a NEGATIVE on the anchovies. 😬
I would take a GARDEN SALAD ANY DAY, PLEASE AND THANK YOU. Ranch and I do like Creamy Italian.
4. Where do you typically work (or blog if that's easier) at home? Do you have a dedicated home office space? Are you happy with that space?
When I am blogging, I am usually sitting on a corner spot on the couch, at my dining room table or my bed. I do not have an office. I will do any computer work in my dining room area. Blogging is a form of relaxation for me. I love to be comfortable and enjoy reading other blogs and being creative in writing mine. When it comes to bookkeeping, bills or church work I am at the dining room table. I love my dining room. Today I had to work!!! 👇
5. Snow drops, daffodils, lenten roses, crocus, hyacinth, or early tulips... what's your favorite early Spring flower?
I love Tulips, but I also love daffodils. Daffodils remind me of the childhood excitement our daughter we get when she saw them blooming. She always wanted to pull over and take a picture as a budding photographer.
My mom and I went to a beautiful Tulip garden in Hot Springs, Arkansas in 2024. It was so beautiful. So many different types and colors.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I am thankful for this precious life I have. It hasn't been easy, peachy nor always wonderful, but when I look around, I am so beyond incredibly blessed. I am thankful for the Lord saving me, blessing me and helping me along the dark paths I have navigated.

Very cute photo of you!
I love Spring flowers. They bring such joy after the long, cold winter.
I do a lot of work from my dining room table too, but when blogging, I'm in my comfy chair with my laptop.
I would love to be a trusting person but I have been hurt too many times in the past which has made me very wary of people. I will forgive but I don't forget.
From reading peoples answers it seems not many people like anchovies. lol
It looks like you were being very busy on your laptop. The only time I move away from my armchair with my laptop is when I have all the papers out and need more space on the dining room table.
Oh, I honestly didn't read your post before I wrote mine, but our answers to #1 are VERY similar. I am sorry you have experienced such hurt, and as a retired Pastor's Wife to another dear sister in Christ who is also a Pastor's Wife, it is very sad when these things happen, but they do...because the one thing I learned early on, just because people go to church doesn't always mean they are mature and trustworthy "Christian" friends. People are people, and many are also broken and wounded, and they tend to want to heap their hurt onto others. Somehow it makes them feel better about themselves. I don't get it, but I also learned the hard way about being too trusting. I often found that I was happier making friends with people outside of our own church, so that I could be a little more "free to be me", and also be able to maintain that Pastor's wife type of relationship with the women of the church and be able to keep personal friendships/emotions out of the equation better. Not always easy to do, but again, I learned that the hard way. Oh, you and I prefer the same type of salad...and I know there's more we have in common. It just keeps popping up as we get to know each other better. I hope you are feeling a lot better and ready for your big weekend! Praying!
Enjoyed reading all your answers.
I blog in my office at my desk. I still have a nice big screen which I love.
I so appreciate your answer to question number one, especially. It was so well thought out, and I can relate to your views when it comes to loving people deeply. Boundaries are important!
You have such a beautiful dining room...I love all of the neutral colors and all of the light. It would make me happy to work in that area as well.
All of the tulips you have pictured are beautiful. The first picture of them is one that especially captures my attention because of the two tones and the shape of the blossoms. And such a nice picture of you.
Love the quote graphic at the end because He truly is good in every season.
Enjoyed reading your answers. Am not a fan of Shakespeare myself. I do like Caesar Salad. Janice
I blog in my craft room.i would take a ceaser salad. I get vibes and trust them. Love the beautiful gardens.
Cathy
i enjoyed this, getting to know you a little better. and i am not familiar with this hodgepodge. i am a trusting person but i am at a point in my life where i don't meet many new people. i do get a gut instinct when i meet people but it is more a feeling about what i like about them. their personality!! everyone deserves a second chance. i love caesar salad and would choose it above all other salads...but i do LOVE homemade ranch dressing!! i have a dedicated home office and work and blog from that spot!! daffodils and tulips...it's a tie!!
Flowers sure do!!!
I understand on so many levels what you mean.
I understand!!!
Thank you!
Thank you!!!! Aren't the two tone beautiful???
Hello Janice!!! :) Thank you for popping by!
Debbie,
I loved reading your answers!!! I love a good homemade ranch dressing as well. :) I get what you mean about a gut instinct about liking a person (personality)
Definitely a pretty dining room table!! It is almost time for the tulip farms to open:)
I love the tulip shots! I'm sure as a pastor's wife you deal with a lot, both wonderful and difficult. Thanks for joining in the HP this week! Have a great day!
