Once again it is time for Joyce's Hodgepodge.
1. Besides Thanksgiving, something on your November calendar you're looking forward to?
Our 22nd wedding anniversary is on the 8th and hubby's birthday is on the 16th.
2. Dictionary.com's word of the year is '6-7'. Huh?
Is it even a word??? I had to consult the internet to find out it's meaning because apparently I'm old and this particular slang is not part of my vocabulary. Is it part of yours? According to the article I read, it's a viral term, more of an inside joke with an unclear meaning driven by social media.
What do you think?
Dictionary. com says it's selection each year is a 'linguistic time capsule reflecting social trends and events, but they also admitted to being confused by '6-7'. Some say it means so-so and is sometimes accompanied by the up and down hand motion we associate with the phrase so-so.
What word do you think would have made a better choice?
I have heard the term but thankfully I have not heard my teenager saying it! I am not sure what else I could come up with though.
3. What's a food, trend, activity, or thing people love but you think is just so-so?
I never understood the avocado toast thing. I find avocados disgusting.
4. Are you a tea drinker? Hot or cold? How do you like yours and at what time of day? Do you like flavored teas or teas billed as calming, energizing, healing, etc?
I used to drink iced tea but have not in a while. I want to be the kind of person who drinks hot tea but I just cannot do it.
5. The November Hodgepodge has always included a weekly gratitude question. Here's the question for today-what are three things that make your heart sing?
When Preston gives me a hug and tells me I am the best mom in the world, listening to Clark and Preston laugh when they are actually being nice to each other and when my hubby comes up and hugs me from behind and kisses my hair.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
There is snow forecast for this weekend and I am really not ready for it.

Snow! No. It's just too early for that lol. I popped over here after reading another HP entry and she also said avocado toast. I like it as long as the toast is crisp and not soggy. Happy Anniversary to you and your hubs!
Happy anniversary to you both and happy birthday to your husband. There seems to be so many birthdays this month, mine is in a couple of weeks.
I am not a fan of avocados either and remember when everyone used to be obsessed with it on toast. Yuck!
Eek! To the snow! Stay safe and warm.
