Transfers and a cooking lesson

The last week of the transfer flew by and We received the dreaded
transfer call. We all knew that it wasn't possible that we would stay
together, but sometimes a little hope is all you need to keep going.
It's been a good time, that's for sure!
I am staying in the area and getting Sis. Goff! We both came out together!
Sis. B is serving with another senior sister in the ward because her
companion is going home early. They are best friends so it should
really work out good!
And Sis. Bishop is going up north again. We won't see her very much
because she is in a different zone. Ugh, I am sad.

This week was fun and good though.
We went to Sotheoun and Pheap's,  they are Cambodian and it's the same
girl who's hair I cut. So we go over and teach her English every week
and sometimes we go over and she just throws in surprises. I have
learned a lot of how to make different Cambodian foods. Well this
time!!! I will tell you I think this tells that I am a true woman, I
earned my badge prior to having children.
So we get there and we are setting things up to teach, and she asks
Sis. Bishop and I if we want to cook, so we are like sure.... (We have
done it before.) well she takes some peanuts out and a bowl to smash
them in and gives it to Sis. Bishop then she takes this whole chicken
out and say, "cut, you cut" at first I was like okay I can do this.
Then I realize that there is a head inside of the chicken and other
things... Long story short. I cut it up. Like she wanted me to hack at
it over and over even the bones. I don't know how this was possible.
But it happened.

I think it's interesting the mission really isn't what I expected it
to be. It's so good, so hard and then so rewarding. I absolutely love
the people I serve with and the friends I have made out here. I
wouldn't change it for the world.

I hope your week is good!!
Love, sister. Tincher
