A February Mishmash

It’s been a while since I wrote a mishmash. February was a relatively quiet month in the Surrey Hills, with plenty of rain and mud to keep us entertained! There were cold and misty mornings.

And clear blue skies

As for blogging, I set myself my own challenge. I was disappointed when there was no Bloganuary this year: https://fancyingfrance.com/2025/01/02/the-disappearance-of-bloganuary/ Instead, I decided to publish a post every day in February – nothing to do with it being the shortest month of the year! My inspiration came from the WordPress Daily Prompt.

I’m pleased I managed to post on all twenty-eight days of February! I’m not a stats person, but I like to know which posts elicited the most comments. If someone takes the time to comment, it shows engagement with the blog post. Liking a post doesn’t necessarily mean that the post has been read!

In no particular order, the three most ‘popular’ posts were:

If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why?

Tell us about your favourite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

What’s your favourite (candy) sweet?

I don’t know of any specific reason for the popularity of these posts, but I did have fun writing them. Not every February prompt was as enjoyable!

To complete my February mishmash, here are a few photos taken this month. I love baking, producing some melting moments, and a mincemeat and marzipan loaf cake.
