About Jayne

Why “Weathervane,” you ask? Well, it all started when my husband nicknamed me that years ago because, without fail, I check the weather apps first thing every morning to plan my day. His response? “The weather’s going to do what it’s going to do.”

True, but knowing what the weather’s up to—especially when you live in Minnesota—can give you a clue about what your day will look like. What should you wear? Will the roads be icy or clear? It’s all part of the adventure. So, when I was brainstorming names for my blog and social media presence, my husband suggested “Weathervane” and honestly, it stuck.

I live on a farm in rural SE Minnesota, and I’m a fan of weathervanes—on buildings, coffee tables, you name it! This blog is a place where I want to inspire you to create simple, tasty meals with natural pantry ingredients. Along the way, I’ll share tips and budget-friendly products that will make your kitchen beautiful and functional.
