So much to tell you!

My goodness! So much to tell ya'll! My team is forcing me to write about our meal... issues. I have not enjoyed or gotten enough food since we got here. The food is very bland and I am just not crazy about it. The portions are very small and we are on a very strict budget with LST. So, I have been griping just a little about being hungry all the time and that I'd realized they weren't gonna give us enough money to get good food here I might of atleast done something different. Well, Sunday Natasha noticed that I looked like I had lost weight. Which I have, my clothes are fitting a little loose. She thought I was trying to loose weight and I explained I have just been starving for two weeks. So, anyway, that day we went out to eat at a place called My My (pronounced Moo Moo) My friend Sashka (see the video below) highly recomended this place for the good food and good prices. I picked out the most expensive food and liked it the least. I was soo frustrated! I ate it but just enough to get rid of the pain in my stomach. Atleast everyday if not everymeal. I say "I don't like that" Sometimes beofre sometimes after I try something.
I think this pickyness comes from my recent weight loss. I have tried so hard to change my habits and mind set to only eat when I am hungry and there are so many things I do like... why would I eat something I don't really enjoy.
I say all that to say... Dennis MADE me try this eggplant salsa stuff called Lecho. I told him atleast 4 times "I don't want to try it I won't like it I don't like eggplant." He persisted and I finally said ok I'll try it! So I got a tiny spoonfull and put it on my plate. Like a rebelious child I put it in my mouth and prepared to tell him "See I don't like it." Ya'll... it was GOOD! Its the closest thing to Mexican Salsa I've had here.I was embarrased to get another big spoonful, but I did anyway. My team naturally made a big deal about it. "A miracle has happened Gynna liked Dinner and got full!" I even declined icecream when they guys offered to go get some after dinner, which was very surprising. They couldn't believe it but I was really full. For the first time in 2 weeks. I hope yall find this as humerous as my team thinks it is.

I had a great reading session with Olga last night. Its so interesting to hear how she grew up. She grew up during Lennon's reign and was taught Communism. When the fall of Communism happened her neighbor took her to the orthodox church and she was baptized. Its amazing to me to hear about peoples life without God. She asked me great questions and we were getting into great converstations and her phone began to ring at first she ignored it and never took her eyes from mine. After a while it continued to ring and it was her ride waiting for her, so she had to go. As soon as I let her out the door I came to the back of the apartment and prayed for her with Aaron and Dennis. Its amazing how God works. I was just thinking when she sat down she is doing well language wise but I not sure the Bible lessons are pricking her heart at all. Boy was I wrong. Our God is a trully awesome God!
On another note, one of my readers Katya took me to breakfast this morning. It was really nice. I enjoyed the time with her but as usual the food was just ok. We walked and talked to a kiosk and got belini. I enjoyed the time and I hope I am helping to open doors.
