Day +116

I am fine today.

I was very happy to be able to attend the church service this morning after four months of absence due to bone marrow transplant. My church was celebrating its 9th anniversary in the service. I was delightful to see many new faces attending the service. This means the church is growing :-)

Even though I put on 3M N95 mask all the time, many church members took photograph with me. The church also organized a potluck lunch after the service. Pastor said that our church is blessed with many “烹饪高手“(Master Cooks) who always prepared very delicious dishes. On the other hand, it is also blessed with many “master eaters” who are at least as gluttonous as me, if not more as me. Our guest speaker, in his message, said that a good church is a church with members who are united under all circumstances. I believe eating must be one of the circumstances even he did not mention it explicitly. So the unity was demonstrated immediately with so many members enjoying the food. Ya, I like this church. With so much delicious food to enjoy, how could I dislike it?

However, I could not enjoy the food this time because I still don’t know how to eat with the mask on. Please teach me if you know so that I will not miss those delicious foods again. I dared not took off the mask because I heard coughing here and there. Furthermore, my youngest son, Aaron, is having fever. So I had to leave earlier with my wife and Aaron, leaving behind my maid and the rest of the children to enjoy the food.

On the way home, we stopped by a bakery shop to buy some bread for lunch. In order to make sure that the breads were fresh, we only purchase those breads that were still hot or just came out from oven.

I had bread for lunch only and remembering those delicious foods that I missed, I am very hungry now . Got to check if the dinner is ready…

See you next post :-)
