Yeah, it was a really fun p day, I'm glad you enjoyed the
pictures :) I can totally imagine Natilee laughing at that. I'm glad I
made her day :) There is actually a little Korean girl in this ward who
reminds me of Natilee, it's pretty funny :)
Yeah, CJH kept the Book of Mormon, I think he is
pretty interested in reading it too. It's too bad that he is busy with military
service right now, he seems like a golden investigator.
Guess what?? Yesterday during church, LYH
texted me and said that he is planning on getting baptized next Sunday!! I'm
so excited, I didn't expect him to be baptized for quite a while, so it was
really surprising. So next Sunday I will most likely go to TongYeong for
the baptism, I can't wait!
I haven't had very many chances to go shopping, but I might
today after lunch.
So this past week, we decided to make brownies for all of
the members we visit. But when we went to the store, brownie mix was like
five bucks for a little box of it. So instead, we used one of the cookie
recipes that I brought with me. We didn't have like half the ingredients,
so I had to improvise a lot. I feel like this could be some show on the
Food Network, cooking in a foreign land with limited access to the correct
ingredients. And the goal is to get the end result as close to the real thing
as possible. We didn't have shortening, and only a little butter, so I had to
fill in the rest with soybean oil. And the only sugar we had was brown sugar,
and it was nothing like normal brown sugar. The texture was closer to
white sugar. Anyway, they actually turned out pretty decent. My companion
thinks they are delicious. They aren't as good as they are supposed to be, but
not too bad :) It was a pretty fun adventure.
I got your package last week, that was super fast. Thank
you so much! I really like the green tie, I even took a picture to show
you :) The talks you sent are really good. And if I speak honestly, I felt
really nerdy getting excited that you sent the Character of Christ talk. I
got your letter last week too, so it was basically Christmas last week :)
I hope you have a wonderful week!
Love,
Elder Hines^^
