Happy New Year, everyone! It was a challenging year that 2020, but I did learn a few things along the way.

1. I finally know what color my hair is. ๐Ÿ’‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ

2. I should have invested in jigsaw puzzles. ๐Ÿงฉ

3. Cleaning my own house is rewarding. ๐Ÿงน

4. I should have bought a smaller house. ๐Ÿ 

5. Ten months of 24/7 with my husband and no one was arrested. It turns out we really like each other. ๐Ÿ’

I wish everyone a happy and healthy New Year.

My “Shopping Cart”

Today I bought a rescue saw, three AEDs, six ice water rescue suits, 5 sets of turnout gear, 7 helmets, 6 pairs of boots, and a rapid deployment craft, all for six volunteer fire departments in Ontario, Canada, my home province. This makes 28 grants so far for the men and woman who volunteer to serve their small communities in Ontario.

This was a happy day for me. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

A Birthday Present From YouTube

Jenny Can CookJenny Jones Youtube VideosI never expected anything like this! When I made my cooking videos, it was just a hobby. I love to cook and just wanted to share my recipes in case some of my fans might be interested. I knew a lot of people didn’t even cook but it was still fun. I watched as the number of views continued to grow and my videos were soon discovered by the entire world. It was international! Comments and questions came in from 200 countries (where they use the metric system – I never planned for that).

Then the corona virus came and the whole world was quarantined at home and had to cook, and bake bread. My recipes are simple and they always turn out so people who have never cooked before and needed to learn started watching and they had questions. A lot of questions. I want to help and I try to answer as many as I can but it’s impossible to keep up. I’m doing the best I can so please understand if I don’t answer your question.

As timing would have it, the millionth subscriber signed up on my birthday today. Now that is a birthday gift I never could have predicted but it makes me so happy because it means that my little home videos are helping people eat healthy home cooked meals and knowing I’m making a difference is the best gift I could have received.
