I went to the store last night because I ran out of sweet potatoes, and I like them for dinner. I thought they would be .25/lb, but when I got there I found they were .08/lb!!! I bought almost 12 pounds for less than a dollar. Oh the joy of in-season produce. I've been eating a lot of vegetables lately, and it is very nice.
This week has been abbastanza bene, WIC is okay, but not as fun as the Food Bank. The lovely thing about the internship is that I will know exactly what I want to do (or exactly what I DO NOT want to do)when I finish because I will have gotten a taste for everything. For example, I probably will not want to work at WIC because it is too repetitive and there is way too much paperwork. There are some good things about WIC: you learn more Spanish, the kids are cute (until you sit them down for iron testing), the environment is fairly relaxed, and you give advice to the people who truly need it.
We had Relief Society enrichment Tuesday and we talked about what modern conveniences we are grateful for. I am grateful for modern conveniences to a degree, but when it comes to cooking I can be kind of old school. Kneading bread by hand is a must--because it is so positively therapeutic. Chopping vegetables with a knife instead of some machiney thing makes me feel like I'm getting better/faster at chopping and I like that too. I digress. We also talked about the things God does for us--little things that make life easier or happier. We made notebooks to write all those things down. It was fun, and especially fun to meet other people.

I am grateful for onion choppers because I cry up a storm when I cut them. That is the thing I dread cutting the most. Lol. That is so cool that your internship is so diverse and let's you try everything. Such a good program.
Hmmm... wonder what the comment was. Lol.
It was some interesting spam. It was in Portuguese, and I translated it online.
To all you people out there who don't know me personally: please no spammy in me blog. Thank you.
To everyone else: glad to have you on board.
