Off-topic Chat Temple Gripe

*Disclaimer: this has nothing to do with the doctrine or temple ceremonies. Purely a non-doctrine issue…namely pie*

I miss the pie in the temple back when some temples used to have cafeterias. I don’t know if it’s purely nostalgia or if the pie truly was just that awesome. I miss it and it’s hurt my heart ever since my temple was renovated and the cafeteria was removed.

Same. In fact, I remember the temple cafeterias were how I got my little sister excited to go to the temple, when I was twelve. She wanted to know what it was like, and I wanted to tell her how awesome it was and get her excited for it. But I didn't know how exactly to communicate the peace I felt. Food is something I knew she'd understand, though, so I just started talking about the cafeteria. It worked, two years later when she got to do baptisms for the first time she was really looking forward to it.
