Fresh homemade salsa.....TACO night!

Monday February 17, 2014
A tiny bit better today.  Not by much though.  I take Tylenol, and the aches go away and I think I am better so I do the laundry, bake bread, and fix dinner.  Then it’s back to the Tylenol.  The Pugmires were going to the The Granero, so I sent Mike with my list.  They had corn meal so I am hopeful to make corn tortillas.  They didn’t have dried split peas, but dried whole peas, so maybe I can crack them in my grinder.  They also had pickles in a bag.  We will see how those taste.  More wheat and some pinto beans.  Oh and chocolate chips too!  Not sure how good those are either.  It’s a mixed review with some people.  Mike worked on a lesson plan he wants to present to leadership.  It’s fine to ask us to help bring church friends back, but there are only two of us.  If we can teach the leadership some principles, then better progress will be made.  A quote by President Hinckley in Preach My Gospel, “There is absolutely no point in doing missionary work unless we hold on to the fruits of that effort.” (p.213 Preach My Gospel)

I stayed home again.  I am feeling a little better every day. Mike gave me a health blessing too.  I drank almost 4 liters of water today hoping to flush out whatever it is I have. I drooped at 3pm and took one more Tylenol. I studied a lot of Spanish today.  I also prepared some awesome fresh salsa.  We had tacos for dinner with the pre made taco shells I bought. When I opened the box, it had taco seasoning too! What a nice surprise.  Because of the humidity down here, the shells didn’t crunch away with one bite.  They actually held together quite nicely.  Mike said the baptistery was busy all day. They had a bus group come in and do family names all day.  They will be in tomorrow as well.  We have to be to the temple by 7:30 am to help.  I am going and bringing my Tylenol with me.  I need a change.  We skyped with Mom just before bedtime.  We try and connect every night.  It is fun to hear her singing bird from the kitchen.
