LDS apostles attend “stunningly moving” British pageant

“You are the future of the Church in the British Isles,” declared Elder Russell M. Nelson to the cast and crew of the British Pageant, which was staged July 31–August 3 and August 5–10.

{Food Dish} Are You a Better Cook Than Your Mom? + Poll

By Kate Ensign-Lewis

I think we can safely say that all of us have felt less domestic than our moms at one time or another. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been out with my own mother and looked at a cute outfit, only to have her say, “Oh, I could sew that in a second!” Well, for a woman who lived in a time when people basically made their own clothes, that’s fine and dandy. But I didn’t. And I can’t.
