November on Instagram

Nov. 2 - Attending to my civic duties, early might I add.
Nov. 2- Date night with Danny and a reward for attending to my
civic duties.  I was really brave and tried the pumpkin smoothie.
It tasted like pumpkin pie, how heavenly.
Nov. 5 - The correct way to celebrate Bon Fire Night aka Guy
Fawkes Day.  PS My sister and I held a Cadbury chocolate tasting
test that evening.  Fruit & Nut came out the winner for me.
Nov. 5 - Oh remember, remember the 5th of November.  Fire burn
and cauldron bubble.  Errr, that's not how that poem ends, but
it is also British, so it works, right?
Nov. 7 - Sister Lunch!  Noelle had an appointment in SLC, so she came
and hung out with me afterwards.  Also a little shout out to Kneaders,
since our lunch was delicious.
Nov. 7 - I work with photographers; therefore, I get to go to very
picturesque places.
Nov. 8 - U of U Sculpture Club Open House.  I liked the sculpture of the
little blobs conspiring together or singing in a choir, one of the two.
Nov. 8 - The reason I attended the sculpture club open house was because
Danny was there rocking off  the faces of those in attendance along with
his talented friends Alex and Jack.  You can listen to a small piece of
the musical performance here and here .  It does not disappoint.
Nov. 10 - The Ice Age is a Upon Us.  We got pounded with snow one
weekend and I found the dinosaurs that sit in our study window with
the winter scene behind them rather ironic.
Nov. 17 - My sister-in-law Katie put on a Lindt chocolate tasting party,
which was oh so scrumptious.  I loved the white coconut chocolate!
Nov. 17 - Another view of the chocolate tasting table.
Cue the mouth watering.  Check out my Katie's dessert blog!
She has the most delicious, sweet recipes on it.
Nov. 19 - After a few particularly stressful days, Danny brought home
this festive bouquet to help me feel better.  That Danny is a keeper.
Nov. 22 - My contribution to Thanksgiving dinner.
Nov. 29 - Festival of Trees!
Nov. 29 - A perfect evening for volunteering.

    Looks like you've had a great month. (Well mostly). Love your dinosaurs in the ice age, and your photography picture. Is that wheat?

      It's actually a reed type plant down in a marshy area near the Great Salt Lake.

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

By
I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue th...

Birthday Week!

By
This week is my birthday week, or should I say birth week.  However that sounds too much like birthing is occurring and that is not the case.  (Don't get any ideas, Danny and I have only been married for 5.5 months.)  Anyway, I firmly believe in celebrating birthdays for the whole week, because why not? Talena and I have a tradition each year that is the kick off for my birthday celebration.  You see, Talena and I were born 12 days apart.  On the midpoint day between our birthdays we go out to dinner to celebrate.  We always try to go some where we have never been before.  This year we went to the Citrus Grill, which was very delicious.  (Special thanks to Eliza for recommending the place.)  We had fun dining, laughing and sharing secrets, because that is what girls do. My dinner...doesn't it just make your mouth water. Talena Balena and Me. PS  We did have a funny little mishap with the dessert.  We got strawbe...

Blogging is still cool, right?

By
I woke up this morning missing my blog. My very early 2000's blog. I had one called The Life of Jannifer during my 20's/single years. Then I had this one from 2010 - 2015 during my early married years. Then I have a website janniferwood.com where I tried to show I'm a serious writer. I still have that website and I'm still trying to show that I'm a serious writer. However, I missed my place of silliness, this little blog. Or I miss being younger, one of the two. Why not post after 7 years?  Also, I find the title of this blog funny because there are a select few people in my life who call me Jan. Most of them are family members or old friends. The even rarer is Janni, which is reserved for some of my nephews and a few other loved ones. My given name, Jannifer, is usually what I go by, but this also tends to be the most confusing for some reason. That whole A and not E throws people. So, I'll stick with Jan on this one.
