Here I am all alone on my first attempt to make Chilean empanadas. I don't think I will go into the business making them and selling them, but I was happy with the results.

The sweetness of success.
This was my first attempt to make my authentic Chilean empanadas. They tasted great just like we remembered them in Chile. Thanks to our Chilean missionaries that taught me how to make them.
El Puente Boyaca.
We attended a stake conference in the Duitama stake and had an area authority, Elder Zambrano, from Peru with us. On the way back to Bogota, we stopped at El Puente Boyaca for a little break. This little white bridge represents a bridge where the last battle was fought to give Colombia her independence.
Breakfast anyone?
Hermana Jenson on the right returned to Colombia for a visit with her good friend Esperanza. We treated them to a breakfast with German pancakes.
One of our new friends.
We love driving through the countryside of Colombia. We always have to keep our camera ready for a Kodak moment. This donkey has this special contraption on his back to carry the milk cans to the road for the milk truck to pick up the milk.
An interesting gentleman.
This man was enjoying the attention of people talking to him about questions from the past. He was representing a soldier during the revolution.
Saying Good bye.
It is always sad to see good friends leave the mission. Elder and Sister Stull were great missionaries. Sister Stull was our mental health specialist and Elder Stull was the auditor.
Two good missionaries returned home,
Dr. Malouf and Hermana Malouf were great missionaries in helping us with our medical problems. We will miss their service and their friendship.
Making bread.
The Maloufs' were good baking buddies. I learned some bread tips from them, and I hope they learned a few from me. Dr. Malouf made this pizza peel for me to use in baking bread, and they gave me this big tile to use like a pizza stone. We love the smell of fresh bread baking.
