This weekend is my last one in Seoul. Yesterday SY took me to the local department store for some gift shopping. While there, I rememered that I needed some cheese and milk. I have been to this department store many times, and was shocked to learn that there is a fill size grocery store tucked away, and I have never seen it! So shopping completed, but dinner plans were changed because my friend...

At my favorite Jazz bar, the owner lady (I have to call her "Nuna" or "Nunim", because she is my elder) has been trying to schedule a Korean dinner for me since I came back from vacation, as a belated birthday celebration. We finally agreed on Sunday night, and met at one of the local Samgyopsal places (see previous posts about rock cooking here and here). So Sunday night, I arrive first, and am...

This week pretty boring, no good reports. Today SY and I went shopping again, and I finally got a good photo of her new ATOZ car.Hyundai ATOZ Car (outside it looks small, but inside is very roomy) ATOZ Rear View We had originally scheduled to go shopping at 1pm, but this morning at 8am I awoke groggily to the sound of my hand phone.

The store is just under a mile away, but it was raining and the traffic was bad. Worse still, the main street we arrived on was just past the parking lot entrance, so we had to drive around the block to get to the parking lot. SY complained to me that she was already...

Monday afternoon I was sleepy, and took a nap at 4pm, and didn't wake up until 9pm! I went to my favorite bar and ate a fruit tray for dinner (Mrs. Stumbler would be proud). Tuesday went okay until about 2pm, when I was so tired I needed another nap. This time...

I finished my vacation and had a great time at home last week. Just as Mrs. Stumbler predicted, my jet lag was almost finished when it was time to return to Korea! Flight back to Korea was good, I sat next to a pilot who had some interesting stories. Read books, slept, ate, and saw a Korean movie 파송송 계란탁, which roughly translates as "Cut up the Leeks and Break the Eggs". I arrived at Incheon to...
