I Miss Cookie Dough!

So i took a BUNCH of pictures this week, but the computer i am using has Windows 8 and im having trouble figuring out how to view the pictures. Its soooo confusing cuz not only is Windows 8 garbage, but its garbage thats in spanish!! So, pictures will have to wait until i figure this out.
Steph, i keep having to rewrite my paragraphs and delete all of the likes lol. Thanks for taking care of my old bank account. YOU ARE THE BEST!
So some things i would like to buy are a flash drive (so if i get robbed and they get my camera i dont lose all of my pictures) , a flashlight (we have been having a lot of power outages here and at nightime it gets pitch black and you cant see anyone or anything), and a new belt (LOSING WEIGHT!!). So if you guys could deposit some more money into my account that would be most excellent. The flash drives are like 500 lemps and i dont know how much the other things are.
So there are some waterfalls about 15 minutes away from marcala by car and we went and visited them as a zone today. IT WAS SO COOL! This waterfall was huge! And the path to get to waterfalls is way hermosa también. I got a lot of pictures. Honduras is just so beatuful, i got to figure a way out to send these pics.
PUES, This week was a good one! We had another baptism. It was a guy named luis who is 22 years old. He is a mechanic and we are working with the rest of his family. His mom is one of the strongest members in our branch.
This week we knocked alot of doors. And when i say knocking i mean, we stand infront of the house and shout BUENAS! hahaha. We ran out of investigators cuz they are all being baptized! But we found this one Street here in marcala. Its on the edge of town on this highway to La Esperanza and everyone on this Street was open to talk to us. IT WAS CRAZY! We named it the calle de oro. Tomorrow i want to go visit them again.
You guys were asking about my companion, and how the food is. SO, my companion is named Elder Rizental. He is from brazil, and speaks pretty good spanish. He has been in the misión field for like 5 months. He is pretty new lol. Most of the time we get along just fine but sometimes i get a Little frustrated with him. Sometimes i feel he is very hard headed, but for the most part he is a good companion. He Works very hard and i like this alot about him. Cuz something that happens with some frequency is that missionarys will come out on the missions and ignore all of the rules and just live like a tourist, not a representative of Jesús Christ.

 
The food here is super good. My two favorite things are baleadas and sopa de gallina. Baleadas are a tortilla de flour. Then you smear beans all over the entire tortilla. Then you put scrambled eggs, cheese, and this stuff called mantequilla inside and then you fold it in half. SUPER TASTY! And then they make soup here that is out of this world. They put whatever vedgetables they have in a pot and boil it with chicken. And all of the meat here is super fresh. Most people have thier own chickens and they kill em and make soup with em. SUPER GOOD! Hahah this reminds me of arrested development. Gotta get a stew going LOL
No, you cant drink the wáter here. We either filter it or buy 5 gallon jugs of the stuff.
And yeah. Thanks for your emails and your love and support.
I really miss cookie dough,
Elder Brown
