Dear Loved Ones,
If you don't put the new battery in your camera; you can't take pictures of your food! Not only that, but I forgot to bring my camera to the dinner we got invited to last night! As my mom would say, "I'm battin' 1000!".
Now, back to this dinner... It was AMAZING! The food here is, of course, the best in the world, from the Lotus Root to the Chicken's Feet. There was also Curry Beef, Soy Sauce Chicken, Roast Duck, two kinds of fish, fresh pears and grapes, fancy noodles, lots of rice, tofu with Daikon radish, bell pepper pork, a few other things, and something that was probably a glutionous rice pouch full of fried mixed veggies. At a restaurant, every dish has it's own chopsticks you have to use to dish it, but at the Family Home Evening dinner last night we all got over our allergies to cooties and just reached in to whatever we wanted with our own sticks. It was super awesome, and just so happened to be the father's 70th birthday. I'm still shocked that he's over 50! The man is going to live to 100 with NO problems.
ANYWAYS,
I've had a great week, and I am loving Hong Kong! If you're not having Family Home Evening; start! Use it as an excuse to have a big family dinner! There's nothing that brings people closer together than enjoying a home cooked meal!
Love,
Elder O'Gara
