Friday Five 5-12-2017

05.12.2017 by Tana Henry //

Recently, I played with the Hasting Symphony for 3 schools, in 3 different towns, for over 1,000 kids. Exposing children to the wonders of orchestras was so fun and inspiring!

This is the twenty-eighth installment in my weekly series, called the Friday Five. In this series, I’ll tell you about five random things that I love, whether they be books, travel, music, movies…or whatever. So without further ado, 5-12-2017’s Friday Five!

1–Explore Newt’s case. Anyone else a fan of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them? Check out this 360 degree tool to explore the inside of Newt’s case. So neat!

2–Whispering Baby Whales. Did you know that baby humpback whales whisper to their mothers while swimming? I didn’t until I read this article. And there’s even a sound clip that you can listen to for yourself.

3–All the Light We Cannot See Book Review. Sierra is a friend of mine, in the blogosphere and in real life. She wrote a fantastic review of Doerr’s book, which our book club is reading currently. I recommend subscribing to A Simple Taste for Reading, so that you don’t miss any of her posts.

4–Coping with and Avoiding Motion Sickness. SDI/TDI, the agency that certified Mike and I as scuba divers, put out this blog post with some great tips for dealing with motion sickness. For someone like me, who occasionally suffers from it, it was helpful.

5–Baking Hacks. I love to bake. And sometimes baking doesn’t go exactly as planned. I couldn’t stop watching this video, since all of the hacks were things that I’d never thought to do. Hope you’re also inspired to do a bit of baking…or salvage your baking misadventures. 😉

My name is Tana, and I am an attorney in South-Central Nebraska. I'm married to a great guy, named Mike, and have a dog named Emmy and a cat named Scout. I read as much as possible, and travel any chance I get. Luggage and Literature chronicles both. I hope you enjoy looking around! Please leave me a comment and tell me what you think.
