10/03/08--18:03: Chicago Botanical Garden (chan 1736126)

This is one of the first areas you experience at the Chicago Botanical Gardens. However, it is ever-changing and this display of purple Mums and Boxwoods will probably only last for a couple months until the first solid frost. Before I go into further detail about the gardens, I’ll have you know that I rode [...]

11/14/08--14:06: Yellow fall leaf (chan 1736126)

Sitting inside my vehicle this leaf landed on the windshield and started sliding down the glass. As soon as I noticed the naked trees in the background I knew I had to take the opportunity that had just fallen into my lap and snap this picture before the leaf blew away. So, I did. And [...]

11/25/08--20:16: Frosty Winter Morning (chan 1736126)

As I woke up in Wisconsin at my parent’s house I hopped outside on a brisk frosted morning to take some photos. The trees are naked, the ground is crunchy with frost and the few leaves that remain are sparkling with ice. It’s cold but seeing your breath and feeling the fresh air in your [...]

11/26/08--18:40: Stuffed Fisher (chan 1736126)

Yes, this stuffed animal is of the “North Woods” variety. (Not for children) It is a Fisher – related to the smaller weasel and larger badger. One scary ass animal… My Father, who is an avid trapper, caught one once upon a time and it tore through his wire box trap like it was a [...]

The winter is official now. It’s cold. It’s frosty. It’s snowing. Snow only looks good the first day really – then it gets all mucked up and dirty and looses it’s appeal… I’ll have to spend more time in Wisconsin skiing or something. Fake snow always looks nice. © 2008 by Jenn Lassa, all rights [...]

12/24/08--16:47: Tray of Mice… (chan 1736126)

Don’t worry they’re CHOCOLATE! This hilarious appetizer/desert was featured at my Aunt and Uncle’s house for Christmas Diner. My cousin’s wife created them using cherries (with the stem) dipped in chocolate, chocolate kisses, almond slices for ears and white icing for the eyes. I don’t recall who actually enjoyed them more; the kids or the [...]

03/06/09--21:25: Puerto Rico road trip (chan 1736126)

El Yunque Rainforest was a beautiful area but tourist central. We didn’t see one cool animal: especially not the endangered parrots… only snails. The trees were beautiful and the waterfalls were nice but I’ve seen better. The perks of driving up the steep winding narrow road include numerous tiny waterfalls, giant bamboo plants, amazing green [...]
