Opposum's are greasy and gross!

Elder Call sent a fantastic, but rather gross, email today. To start, he gave us a list of all the exotic foods he would like to eat on the mish. Including:

Snake
Oppossum
Groundhog
Turtle
Squirrel
Racoon
Frog (the legs)
Okra (still haven't had any yet :( )
Catfish - hush puppies
Polk Greens
Armadillo
Craw-Dad tails

Every member i talked to said i was CRAZY for wanting to eat Opposum (the
rest is all legit here), that Opposum's are greasy and gross! But last
night, we had dinner with the Strickland's, and as he was dropping us off at
home strange food came up. Well, Elder Day had me tell Brother Strickland
about my list, and you know what he said?! "You can get ALL of that here in
South-West Missouri! ...But Oppossum is kinda greasy, so we'd have to
barbeque it so all the grease drips off." THAT'S WHAT HE SAID!!!! He's
going to help us get all the food on my list, then when everything is
crossed off my list, i'm going to make a more crazy, and bold list!!! (Pig
hooves, and Snout, etc!)

Hope i didn't ruin all ya'lls lunch :D

GROSS. You should all write him letters protesting his consumption of the adorable Oppossum: http://www.opossum.org/ He did give us an update on actual missionary work too:

The work here in Granby is picking up! We went into Fairview on Saturday,
and Stella on Sunday, and tracted all over because we didn't have any
appointments, and we got quite a few new potential investigators! It was
VERY satisfying!

Needless to say, even the CRAZY Pentacostal women who think "The Mormons are
going to hell because they add to the Bible, and the Jehovah's witnesses
becuase they take away from it!" are polite, and want good things for us!

Please write him/send packages, he would LOVE it!
