Happy Birthday Fun

Thursday August 7, 2014

 There are no soda pop vending machines here.  The only vending machines I have ever seen are ones like this one.  And I have only seen them in the gasoline service stations.  They only dispense hot water for their Mate drink.  It is a "FREE" service provided.  I don't know how free that really is considering it costs over $100 to fill up the small mini van.


If you don't know what Mate is then here is a link: What is Mate?


Starting with Mike and going left:
Hermana Ots, Hermana Schaelling,

Elder Gallagher, Elder Taylor, Elder Quezada, Elder Galeano, Elder Plautz, Elder Eraso



We had a birthday dinner for Elder Taylor who is the head financer in the mission office.  We have a lot more room in our new apartment upstaris.

He requested pork chops and mashed potatoes.  I also served brocolli  and salad.

He wanted a white cake with not alot of frosting so I just did the simple lemon, powdered sugar glaze.
