Helping Out

I went to the Temple today, helping out in the kitchen. Went to replace my mum, she usually goes after her English class every week, but today was my brother's birthday, so she didnt have time to go (Birthday stuff to do), so I decided I'd help out (be a good daughter and use my time productively for once) while my mum was in class. Some of the ladies were impressed with the fact that I was such a good daughter, helping my mum out and all and then they started comparing me to their kids. Little do they know, my mum constantly asks me to go help out all the time, but I never do, so I was feeling a lil guilty, but I couldnt tell them that, couldnt do that to my mum could I?

Some snaps from today.

*** Small Slug I found in the mint leaves. I was imagining my mum spotting the slug and wondered if she would start crying like an idiot (she's deathly afraid of anything wiggly ie. Worms, caterpillars, slugs etc. etc.). I was also staring at the slug for a good 5-10mins, all the while throwing the plucked mint leaves into the stalk (rubbish) pile and the stalks back in the starting pile***

***Thats my working area, (notice the innovative way I changed the crate into a table :P) I was chopping lemon grass (Jenn- that's what lemon grass looks like), So everyone was working on the floor (so country like, I loved it) and because I'm such an unbalanced person I turned the crate into my table, and I had to sit on a kids stool, my knees were close to my stomach and my behind was going numb very quickly!******So I was sitting outside by myself, chopping lemon grass and some (a LOT) pigeons started flying into the back yard and started eating at the noodles that had been spilt earlier (like teeny amount) I was amazed, they dont usually go into peoples back yards.(well not mine anyways***
***More thieving pigeons*** ***The Simpsons!!! Someone gave the temple a huge Simpsons movie poster to cover up their gate. so darn cool!***
