famiglia,
i cooked some delicious fresh pesto genovese with garlic and fresh onions yesterday for lunchh mmmmmm
you would be so proud haha. im slowly learn the art of italian cooking haha its harder than the language but the results always taste good no matter what you mess up. tthe milk and the cheese here just blows anything else out of the water. were buying a bunch of meat this week so well see about this haha
i wanna share a quick story.
we got the sweetest blessing this week.
last week we planned a bunch and talked a bunch about how to make our investigator pool grow. they had a baptism here in cagliari last month and we want to get at least one every transfer. we did everything we could last week. we tried all our favorite spots found a ton of contacts commited all of our investigators made more appointments with others who werent progressing everything. then later in the week some of the people who were making the most progress called and said they were going on vacation for a few months. (this is pretty regular in Italy, weirdest thing ever.) so we were pretty sad. we needed some acid stuff since our sink was clogged (my companion thought the sink was a good place to cut his hair) we walked around the corner bought the stuff i made two contacts in the store while he got the acid haha and when we walked out a man says "hey just the men im looking for!" we were just surprised since everyone in Italy is super paranoid haha. we were just like heyyyyyy.....? how are ya? haha and he goes i have three books under my arm if you guess what one of them is ill talk to you. he had a book of mormon haha so sweet. he asked us a few questions about the word of wisdom and them my companion started going through super short lessons of everything. he already knew it all he read and i guess recieved lessons from some elders in another town. he is pretty much ready to be baptised he just couldnt before because of family. we gave him our number he called us the next day and were meeting with him on thursday. so sweet. we just need to get some things clarified and then hell be ready for the baptism interview! wowwww
what a blessing haha.

we got our first parking ticket. my companion convinced me it would be fine and then he forgot his card number so i paid 40 euro for some stupid thing. Italy also has universal everything so the post office is also like the police station and everything else important. we waited for three hours in that place to pay 40 euro so cool.... i met three really nice ladies though. i hope they come to church this sunday. they were way nice. haha.
tell D and Z that i love them and i expect their couch to always be open for me. and also if either of them want to learn how to make a REAL dinner give me a call. or an email. since im out here still haha.
i love you mom tell all the grandmas i love them. tell nana i just barely got here letter. it was sent to the MTC and then to ROMe and then to here haha. anyways gotta run.
i love you.
ciao ciao
