Greek Lessons for Ted

Every Wednesday night from 7:00 - 9:00, for the past two weeks, we´ve had Elder Okazaki(from Nevada) and Elder Strobot (can`t remember where he`s from) over for dinner. Once dinner is complete we clear the dishes and Ted gets private Greek lessons, tutoring for his class. They told us last night that they were the envy of the mission, because they actually had a dinner appointment with a member. Elder Strobot said that he has been out a year and has had dinner at a member´s house a total of 5 times, before our weekly invitation. Neither one of them had had cooked beet greens before last night. One had two helpings, the other took one bite.

weekly appointments sound like what we do. Although Ive never gone as far as to serve beet greens! That musstve been exciting
