Dźień Dobry!
First to answer some questions about food and weather. Weather..... a couple of the days recently it has been super hot, and then when it cooled down in the nighttime, it caused thunderstorms, I loved it. The thunderstorms reminded me of Heavenly Father's power and His love for me. I felt the protection and love that He gives each of us. The rainstorms have been absolutely beautiful. Sister Blake and I have only been caught in one of the many rainstorms (what a blessing!) and it was hilarious huddling under a small umbrella trying to walk home without getting soaked, it was a great moment. It's really been cooling down lately, I think last night was the first night that it got slightly cold with the window open. The super nice weather has been a blessing, since there has been so many people out and about that we've been able to talk to.
Food, it doesn't seem that different to me. We cook most, like 95% of our meals. Which consists of ham and cheese sandwiches, sorta. Its not ham, its a different type of meat that tastes similar and different cheeses, I like fresh mozzarella and gouda cheese now (never tried it before now). Cheddar is not very popular here. Also, the bread here is super tasty, and fresh. Everything is organic, non-organic doesn't exist here. Once in a while, Sister and Elder Durrant will invite us over for a meal, which is always so wonderful and such a blessing. Sister Durrant is an amazing cook :). Last time, she made french toast with the most delicious buttermilk syrup. My first meal with an investigator is this Friday :)
This past weekend was amazing as President and Sister Edgren visited Wrocław and we had a fireside, they also spoke the next day in Sacrament meeting. I love the vision they have for Poland. It was absolutely wonderful. I found out how blessed we are to have such a young lively branch and we have a couple of families, which so far Sister Edgren said only one other branch has children. I love this branch so much, they are amazing strong people.
This week I realized what a blessing it is to know that God is our Heavenly Father, that the most powerful and all knowing God, is our Heavenly Father. He loves us dearly. Truly with our Father in Heaven and our Savior at our side, what can we not do? What obstacle is still great? There is nothing that stands in our way in doing the Lord's work and what a great knowledge that is to have.
Going to a castle for p-day this week! (I feel so blessed and loved!)
