I typically start these daybook entries with “Happy Monday,” but, look at me, putting a daybook out on Friday! Hard to believe, this month will quickly be coming to an end. There are only a few “posting” days left and, well, better late than to completely miss it this month. …
My Little Weakness (and It’s Not the Latte)
Hello to another Hodge Podge…and a new season. Not a new season of Hodge Podge but, you know. I hope your “cozy season” has started off just as homey as you anticipated. With the change of season, the Hodge Podge is thinking fall. I was going to suggest you read…
Our New England & Canada Cruise – September 2026

True Beauty is in Nature

The Best Cookie
Happy Wednesday and, around much of blogland, Happy Hodge Podge Day! It has been exciting to see how many have been joining the Hodge Podge link lately! I really enjoy reading others’ answers and seeing who has answers similar to mine. Most of you who stop by this spot of…
A Look at the Small Things: Late Summer 2026
Whether I admit it or not, summer is winding down. In the air and in my spirit. I can feel the change coming. I was out of town last week (thanks to everyone who still stopped here for a visit) and returned Saturday evening. After a bite to eat, Hubby…
We Never Get Tired of the Hodge Podge:)

A Daybook Entry: August 2026
Happy Monday! And welcome again to my blog. I cannot believe it but, I just checked, and I don’t think I got a daybook entry done for the month of July. I’m so disappointed with myself. I was on a streak with these monthly posts. And I almost had decided…
