So for the first time I get to stay in the same ville with the same companion and it is really weird. Neither of us had to pack up our bags or go to the gare. It was sad that we didn't get to say goodbye to the elders and sisters leaving from our zone but we did get to take our pday today:)
This week went by pretty fast but it also seems like last Monday was actually a month ago. My concept of time is super skewed but it's all good:)
On Wednesday we got up and during equipe study we made a quiche because we went to eat lunch with a less active at her house and it was pretty good if I do say so myself! We have a little tiny microwave oven so I had to do only a 1/3 of the recipe because it was a recipe for a big oven but it worked out and was super yummy:) And my mille feux was not too bad this time around, the little ones were to test our oven to see if we could even cook it period but again totally not biased when I say my mille feux was pretty good too:) The less active liked it too, even though she always says no she smiled when I asked her if she liked it! She is stubborn but that's okay because I am stubborn too;p
On Thursday we did Tim Tam slams and had Dr. Pepper floats which was really fun, and ended up being dinner... Haha ah we ate too much sugar that night but it was okay because we only do it once a transfer;p I don't think I have explained tim tam slams before so I'm going to just in case, and if I already have, sorry:) But tim tam slams are when you take hot milk and a tim tam, which is like two little cookie bars filled with a chocolatey fudge filling, covered in chocolate, and you take that and you bite off one corner and then the opposite corner and you put one corner you bit off in the milk and you suck through the other corner you bit off like a straw until you taste milk and then you shove it in your mouth!!!
Sorry that was a bad explanation but it is soooo good, the chocolate melts inside and the cookies do too which
is why if you don't put it in your mouth real quick it will fall apart into the milk! Its super not good for you though which is why you really should only do it once a transfer, we have enough patisseries every other day of the transfer that its okay!
Friday we had our calls and then that night we had branch counsel which was super awkward at the beginning but ended up being great at the end. We weren't able to find a place and a good time for our ami to be baptized this past week but at branch counsel after a LOT of talking we were able to get this Saturday for her baptism after stake conference and it will be amazing:) Everything has fallen into place and knock on wood it all works out! She is so ready and we are so proud of her:)
Then the best part of this week was we got to celebrate Fete de la musique with the branch and we did like a musical jeopardy. It wasn't quite jeopardy but what they did was they broke up the last big musical years and they were the categories, and then a team would pick a category and have 4 minutes to identify the 20 songs from those years. It was crazy! They were mainly french songs which I was useless for that but the second round was international songs and my team won that round haha because there is not a lot of youth in the branch;p It
was so weird though because I heard songs I knew I used to know but I could not remember the composer or the name of the songs! That was super frustrating and I know it'll only be worse when I get home...agh... Haha
But that's not for another year so I won't worry about that right now, but then the last round was childhood TV theme songs and that was really fun, there was scooby-doo, pink panther or as the french say panther rose, full house, addams family, and lots others, they even had the nanny and that was really funny to listen to!
That was a great way to finish the week and I am excited for this next week of this transfer:)
Have an amazing week!
Love,
Sister Beatty
