Highlight of the Week: Peanut butter. Manteca de Mani :) 

Apples and peanut butter is the best combination in the world. Why it took me 5 months in Paraguay to figure that out, I don`t know. But it`s fantastic :) 

We woke up to find a cockroach in the bathroom. Yuck. Not a fan of cockroaches. I thought about taking care of it. . . but decided it was more humane to let the poor little guy die of natural causes. . . I don`t want to touch him :)

And this week we walked half of our limits - Our area is a big square, with 4 different main roads marking the boundaries. This is still a little new to me since most of our limits in Ypacarai were the jungle and lacked a certain amount of definition. . . :) But it was fun to get a bigger picture of where we`re at.

We`re going to be busy this week preparing for a baptism this Saturday - Mario`s getting baptized! I`ll send pictures next week. And we actually have a font here - the only bummer is that it`s right before Fast Sunday, so we won`t be able to eat cake. . . but esta bien, almas son mas importante :) 

Mango season has died down a bit. Guayabas are still going strong. Certain types of citrus are on the brink of maturing (I think), and I can´t wait! Yesterday a certain type of small tree/bush/shrub with small white flowers all bloomed, so all the streets smell really good right now :) 

Oh! I made an avocado pie. . . 'tarta de aguacate' and it was gross. It was really bitter for some reason. I think it was the avacado`s fault. But the members ate it anyway - they didn`t believe me that it was gross. 
 

This is the view from our back porch/balc​ony



Another view from our front balcony on an almost rainy morning :)
