I Like Thursdays: March 19, 2026

 


Hello and welcome to "I like Thursdays!"  Today we celebrate what is good and share it on the internet.  Hosted by LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color, you can visit her and other positive bloggers at her website here.

We are grateful that a big storm managed to avoid us.  Nearby, roofs were blown off houses, telephone poles and trees fell.  We were very lucky.  It had been in the 70s F all day and then the storm came through.  

Now it's in the 20s again.  And speaking of weather...

Tomorrow is the first day of Spring!!!  Yeeehaw!


St. Patrick's Day was on Tuesday and we didn't do much but my brother sent over Corned Beef and Cabbage for my husband.  My friend Sue sent me the coolest photo from the St. Patrick's Day in NYC:


We are McLaughlins and my family loved this photo!

LeeAnna's prompt this week is:  food we hated as a kid.  I hated onions and I think most kids did.  I also hated hot dogs and foods with soft textures.  In particular cooked celery and I hated tomatoes that were cooked and mushy.

On the other hand, I loved most vegetables including brussel sprouts--they were my favorite.  

I still hate all the mushy vegetables and I can no longer eat onions because of my IBS.  I'm a very picky eater who likes fairly bland comfort food.  

What foods did you dislike as a kid?

Have a safe and happy weekend!
