churrasco!

Tonight we went to an authentic brazilian churrasco! aka Brazilian bbq. I will admit that the food was astounding! Some of the best meat I've had in awhile. And the BEST beans and rice. I told Kent I could have served in Brazil if it weren't for the temps and humidity.
We had all of the real brazilian stuff; grilled cinnamon and sugar pineapple, farofa, guarana, guava paste, brigadeiros, and lots more! I feel terribly bloated but it was worth it.

This great guy in the ward put it all together and gave out assignments and whatnot. Not a single real Brazilian but it was still pretty authentic! There were four members who had served missions porteguese speaking, a couple who had lived in Brazil teaching English, and a bunch others who had some sort of brazilian connection. I am just married to a Brazilian connection.

We forgot to take pictures at the beginning! This is the meat AFTER 15 people gluttoned through it. All of the pineapple was gone quickly so no pics of it. It was quite the evening :)

That is amazing. You have found so many connections there. It looks wonderful. Were many speaking Portuguese there?
