September Sister Spotlight: Jeanne Machin


 My mom does family history and came across a long line of Jeanne Coventrys in my line.  I am Jeanne Coventry the 9th.

My birthday is January 19, 1976 and I was born in Davenport, Iowa.

My favorite color's are Caribbean Sea Blue and Fire engine red, but not always together!

I have been a member of the church for 32 years, and I have spent 7 of those years in this ward.

I recommend always wearing lipstick, even in a seemingly ridiculous situation.  Exercising daily and eating at Lydia's in the Strip District as often as possible (which is why you need to exercise daily!)

The one kitchen item that best describes me is a shiny gold lamé potholder.... every day practical with a touch of glamour.

My hobbies and talents include singing, playing violin, baking and cooking ( I make a mean chocolate chip cookie) Yoga, walking/running, I'm a big movie-buff, choral singing and conducting, and acting like a Muppet to make my kids and husband laugh.

When I was little, what I wanted to be when I grew up was to work at McDonalds.  I then upgraded to wanting to be a chef... but those fries keep calling my name!

If I could travel anywhere in the world I would choose Egypt to see the pyramids, Peru to hike to Machu Picchu, Paris to see EVERYTHING and the Virgin Islands to snorkel in that gorgeous, blue water.

The farthest I have been from home is Majorca, Spain.
