    which reminds me. Whatever happened to Eagle Forum?
    Their website appears to be a malware infested site so I'm not going there, but their FB page shows that they are as active and whackadoodle as ever.

      Latter-day Saint temple cafeterias to close in 2022

      Wait... temples have cafeterias?

              Boise's used to before its remodel.

              Provo used to as well - not sure if/when they took it out. My MTC district used to go to the earliest possible endowment session on P-day and then we'd get breakfast at the temple.

                    Mesa had one until this new remodeling. No cafeteria, now. The good news is that the Deseret Book up the block now has a satellite BYU Creamery location so at least you can get some Graham Canyon after a rigorous session of baptisms for the dead...

                      I've never eaten in a temple cafeteria. The only temples I've been in are Mesa, Provo, Salt Lake, Montreal, Boston, Bountiful, Portland, and maybe Jordan River. I do not recall which of these had cafeteria, but I know Montreal didn't.

                          Jordan river as well. The food was better than good.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes.

                            Whoa talking about this with Mrs. NWC I was more righteous than I thought. I’ve also been to the Cardston and Toronto temples. She tells me that the chowder in Cardston temple was to die for. She also said the Toronto temple had a cafeteria but I can’t remember eating there.

                              That's why there's so much work to do for the dead.
