We've recently hosted two families in our little apartment for dinner.
|
First, we had the Nomuras. We have been to their home for both New Year's that we've been here. They are faithful members of the branch. Sister Nomura is our Relief Society president. I forgot to take a picture before we ate, so it doesn't look too good. We had glazed ham, baked potatoes, rolls, asparagus, green salad, and cake for dessert. |
A few weeks later, we had the Kadawakis and their daughter, Shiho for dinner. Mrs. Kadawaki is our "boss" at the volunteer center. We have grown to love these people so much. We served enchilada casserole, veggies and dip, chips and guacamole, corn, and pico de gallo, with Robert Redford for dessert.
We had such a fun evening with them. After dinner, Elder Hinton shared a video and gospel message and invited them to learn more. Mrs. Kadawaki said, "I don't know much about Jesus Christ, but I know you." That really touched and sobered us. What a responsibility! We are grateful to know these good people!

What beautiful people! Your dinner parties look delicious and sound wonderful and that is probably the nicest compliment I have ever heard when he told you and Ken that he didn't know much about Jesus Christ but he knew you.
I love your new picture at the top of the blog. You look soooo cute!!!
Your dinner parties look wonderful. I'm so amazed that you are able to pull together an "American" menu in Japan.
Your dinner looks so delicious! You are so generous to host so many and bring treats so often to people's homes and events! You two are going to be sorely missed when you leave!
