Fog and baby strollers

Today when we got up it was really foggy. It was difficult to see across the street from our apartment. We went out walking anyway. Not much happened on our walk so we were soon headed for our district meeting. It was okay but we ate after and we can’t keep doing this or we will gain more weight. We had our language class today and it is still hard. They keep telling me it will get better, but I am still waiting. Meanwhile grandma said in order to go to Portugal all she wanted was a cook and a maid so I have been getting all the meals and doing all the dishes. We eat some different things, we bought a bag of salad and l am sure it had some kind of wild lettuce in it. It was really strong, I bought some what I thought was margarine and it was margarine alright but I missed the word for with garlic. Good thing I tasted it before I made the frosting. It tastes great to scramble eggs. We have to be careful when buying cheese, some of the cheddar cheese is so sharp it will cut you. Grandma saw some cute strollers in the window of one of the stores and had to have a picture of them in today’s blog for Laura and Gail to see. Asher I don’t call you a m because you aren’t a morning person but because there are two of you grandkids whose names start with a. So al and am. Think about it. We go over to the church on Wednesday and Friday night where the elders teach an English class. I think grandma is learning more português in the class than the others are learning English. Even with the inverters grandmas curling iron had a meltdown. There was smoke and melted plastic involved, and I had to throw it out on the balcony to cool down. The fog made it tough to take pictures today so hope for better pictures tomorrow. If anyone wants to read this and can’t because we have not friended them send their names in comments. We get a lot of friend requests and we are not sure which ones are legit.

I love reading about your experiences. Thanks for sharing! I am especially glad you smelled the garlic seasoning in the margarine before putting it in frosting! I would love to taste eggs cooked in it though. Denise
