Oh my good heavens! Do you know what this is? The 400 post!
Okay, let’s give you some updates on the weekend, as exciting as it was.
If you read Jenny’s blog, you would have read all about how she locked her keys in her car on Friday night. I really should have called AMA when she first told me of her predicament, but we stupidly goofed around with a hanger for much too long. It actually took more time to complete the paperwork for AMA than to get the door unlocked. Lesson learned. Leave the breaking in for the professionals.
I must adamantly insist that you all get AMA or some kind of roadside assistance. Ask for it for Christmas, Hanukah, or any other gift-giving occasion. I cannot mention how many times my membership has saved me, and more times, my friends. So, please take my advice, bite the bullet and look into a membership of your own.
I spent an exciting Friday night at home obsessively fretting over our ward bulletin. I crazily volunteered to put together for the next couple of weeks. Sadly, I have a not so secret love for desktop publishing, and spend way too much time perfecting spacing, finding new fonts, or just the right tagline for each announcement. Personally, I think each bulletin turns out better than the last.
This weekend also marked the Third Annual Denise Garner Apple Taste Test. I do feel bad sometimes that I don’t put more pictures of my going ons on my blog. But I really never remember to take my camera. So I excitedly found a camera so to document this historic event, however, we forgot to take any pictures!
The results of the taste test ended up not unanimous. Usually every year a clear winner emerges, usually the Honeycrisp apple, but this year ended in a three-way tie between the Jazz, Fuji and Honeycrisp apple. Personally, I have declared the Honeycrisp apple the winner again this year.
In terms of horrible apples, we found a new loser in the Sunrise apple. One person thought it tasted like you left an apple by a furnace for a couple of weeks. It was incredibly mushy. I tried my hardest to find a half-decent Red Delicious apple, and I actually didn’t mind it too much, no substitute for a Honeycrisp, but not half bad.
What I am most proud of, and the real purpose of the Denise Garner Apple Taste Test is to show that no two apples are alike. I am proud to say I have developed a new group of apple snobs. Trust me; you will never look at apples the same way again.
The weekend of course went by much too quickly, and I only barely got to sleep in, but we had fun regardless.
Still not knowing what a parfait is.
Debating the Corn Maze, again.
Waiting, Wondering, Wrecking.
Keep Doing What You’re Doing.

Come to the Maze of despair!
Yes, I expected certain greatness from you obviously since you are such a wonderful speaker. I think maybe that was the problem, after you everyone just paled in comparison, maybe you should have gone last and then you could have wrapped everything up so beautifully.
Uh...I beg to differ. There were pictures taken, but they were 85% me, and all debatably horrendous.
