Chicken Foot Soup

This last week was really cool. Last Monday, we went shopping and spent way too much money at a place called maga mart. It is like a Sam's Club or Costco. We didn't even really buy anything but they tack on a 17% tax. It's crazy. On Wednesday, we went and did some service at the church. It's getting painted and we cleaned up around the outside. we washed all the chairs. It was cool to go and help out. Part of the Sorensen's family came to visit them. it was cool to see someone else experience Jamaica. They thought it was crazy. So many things that they saw or heard were a really big deal to them but it's an every day occurrence here for us. It made me want to bring my family here to see what they think about it. One of our investigators cooked us some Chicken foot soup. Basically, it's borth and then some chicken feet just floating around. She said it was pumpkin soup, I was excited for it and then I opened up and I have a chicken foot staring me in the face. It tasted good but I hate the texture of the chicken foot. That same day we walked in her yard and there is a Rhasta man with about 2 pounds of weed on her porch bagging them up and getting them ready to sell. One of the bags here cost about $.50. There was so much it was crazy. The most I have ever seen. On Saturday, we went on trade offs with some members that are getting ready to on missions. We had some good lessons and found some good people. We are teaching this lady with twin 5 year olds. The boy make think that is how Tayte, my nephew, will be when he is older. We are also trying to teach some Cubans that don't speak English. The only we can do with them is go and read. They have a Spanish Book of Mormon. It's been cool. On Sunday, we had dinner at President Lee's and he cooked us T-bone steaks with mashed potatoes, vegetables, and rice and peas. It was awesome. The steak and Potatoes were so good. Oh yeah, and on Thursday, Sis. Rose, our land lady, took us out to dinner to the Yacht Club. She got us lobster, it was so cool and tasted amazing. We had six investigators at church. We had some really good lessons with Marlin, Ricard, and Mark. We gave them dates and they accepted. We have a baptism for a guy named Jordan next Sunday and it's in the ocean so that is way cool. Really good week. We had some great lessons and experiences.
