Pumpkin Cream Cheese Log
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Log
We spend just about every Friday morning at the Idaho Falls Temple where Nina and I are ordinance workers on the first shift. What that means is arriving at the Temple in enough time to change into our white clothes and be in Prayer Meeting at 6 a.m.

To do that, I get up at 4 a.m., eat breakfast while Nina is using the bathroom, then shower and get dressed while she’s getting her breakfast. We pull out of the garage by 4:45 a.m. and usually arrive at the Temple about 5:40 a.m. Nina drives and I snooze on the way up. She must do a great job of driving because I never wake up on the way up there!

Our work at the temple is scheduled two months at a time. That is, I’ll have the same set of assignments for the months of April and May and they’ll change for June and July. We finish up our assignments by noon, change back into our street clothes, and head for home.

Now that I’m also working on the Census, our drive home includes stopping at the Trading Post at Ft. Hall to meet with my supervisor or his assistant to turn in my daily time sheet along with the completed interviews from Thursday.

Great Harvest bakes a type of bread that Nina really likes on Fridays, so we usually stop there so she can pick up a loaf … and I can get something I like, such as the Pumpkin Bread – Cream Cheese rollup pictured. Click on the picture for more.

TTFN!
