Destinations Inn, Rasberries, and a Desk!

Hey Everyone!

This week has been a lot of work and a lot of fun! If you recall me mentioning earlier, I was in a winning advertising campaign group this last semester and so I won an A in the class and a free nights stay at Destinations Inn, which is a really nice themed room hotel down in Idaho Falls. We used our gift certificate on Monday! We stayed in This Room:

Athens

Brett ran into a friend this week. He had come about 3/4 of the way home from work when realizing he had forgotten to do something in the bakery that would have been a lot of trouble for those coming in the next morning. So, he picked me up and we went back to Broulims. On the way back in we ran into Elder Sailor from Brett's mission! He was a good friend of his in the MTC and was never his companion in Germany, but was always around! Elder Sailor (I do not believe first names were mentioned) was in town for his little brothers farewell. We were lucky to run into him!

On Friday we went and picked Raspberries! A lady that I work for said she had them coming out of her ears and asked if we would come pick some. After picking for about an hour and a half she asked us if we wanted a desk and that they had one they were otherwise going to take to the DI. Brett went and looked at it, liked it, helped load it into their truck, and they brought it to our apartment. She also gave us some peas and spinach from her garden!

The desk fits really nicely in our bedroom! It will be perfect for all the studying that will be happening while we are both in school.

Once home From picking raspberries Brett went to work and I went to work cleaning and freezing raspberries. i was told that the best way to do that is to set the berries individually on a cookie sheet and then freeze them for two hours and then put them in Ziploc bags, so that they do not all stick together in the bag. It took a very long time, but now we have berries to last through the winter!

Saturday when Brett got off work we went and saw Green Lantern. It's always nice hit the movies!

Have a great week!

  1. I love the desk! The bug that crawled out of the spinach didn't make your blog - bummer!

  2. You can't beat ripe raspberries! And now I know how to freeze them--I hope I remember, far into the future when I actually have enough raspberries to need to know how to freeze them...

    Nice hotel room, too! :)
