Santos de los Ultimos Dias, Santos de los Primeras Dias

Highlight of the Week: Teaching Lourdes (who UNDERSTANDS the gospel) and her mom, Nelli, who likes to talk about aliens. . . :) 

My comp and I have been trying to drink more water, to prepare us for Summer. We`re up to 2 liters a day . . . it`s HARD, because bathrooms aren`t just conveniently there all the time. . . but it`s going well :) One of our inactive members gave us a bunch of mulberry leaves from her mulberry tree. . . apparently it helps with water retention. She didn`t quite understand that needing a bathroom every 30 minutes was not our goal. . . but it`s the thought that counts :) 

We discovered cute little seed pods that look like baby watermelons and are very much like bouncy balls. I think it`s some cousin to the tomato. 

We were talking to a Catholic woman who had visited with the elders a long time ago, and her husband passed by and casually informed us that we were "Santos de los Ultimos Dias" and they were "Santos de los Primeras Dias". . . :) Well said, I`ll have to admit :) 

We discovered yesterday that Sopa Paraguaya uses a lot of eggs and a lot of milk. . . that's why it`s so dry and gross every time we try to make it. . . :)
