General Conference Tradition

Funnel cakes before dinner? Sure. Why not? It was General Conference weekend and being quarantined at the same time. We are typically always home for General Conference anyway. It’s twice a year and a time where we can watch the leaders of our church in Salt Lake City right in our own home. So Conference and funnel cakes might end up being a tradition for us.

Let’s be honest. Funnel cakes might actually have even been allowed dinner. Kidding. Kind of. We ordered our weekly take out. It’s something we can do to help the local businesses. I wish we could do it more often, but we also need to save some funds right now with all the unknowns. Plus, I’m a tad bit nervous that the food containers could be contaminated. I figure once a week is an okay risk. We cannot live in fear and quite frankly we can only do so much to protect ourselves. Just hope for the best. So on Saturday night we each ate funnel cakes and then ate dinner. And for lunch on Sunday? Totally just ate funnel cakes. Ha! It’s fine every now and again. * wink *
