So sorry there is no
big email this week. We have too many appointments today so our pday is
only 2 hours, and we have to do shopping still too. The members here are super
cool, and they invite us to everything! We are going to a bday party of zr daniels
granddaughter today. And actually last night we had 2 dinner appointments so I
almost died because they were both crazy good Indonesian food and it was so
good! I ate a ton!
Thank you for the post
card. I got it this week, and I love it! I miss those Utah leaves! But fall
here is super cool as well. So about the skating on canals. They like
never do that because it never freezes anymore. But maybe this year it will
freeze again. It is not too cold, so I'm staying nice and warm. As long as it's
not raining it's pretty warm all the time. And yeah the hagelslag is just like
sprinkles. We eat them a lot especially on the pancakes. Do you remember
those like dutch biscut things you sent me while I was in the MTC? Whenever a
baby is born they eat those with butter and sprinkles on top. If it's a
boy they use blue sprinkles and if a girl then pink. That's a pretty
typical Dutch tradition. Turns out Dutch ovens aren't Dutch. I've been asking
around my whole mission and no one knew what they were, but I finally found a
member who knew and they said they are American.
I didn't realize how
many famous artists are from the Netherlands until I got here. And I've been
saying van gogh wrong my whole life! haha
So that referral I got
to look up someone’s family here in Hengelo. ya well we looked her up and she
didn't even open the door. She yelled from inside and asked who it was and I
said elder Hulet and I was sent by zr van der putt to visit you, and she just
said to go away. Super lame!
