I pulled out a folding table this weekend, in order to work on a laptop computer. Since the table had been stored under the sofa for awhile, it was a little dusty. I pulled out a can of Pledge and proceeded to dust the table top. It worked quite well, and the surface was very clean and shiny. However, there was some overspray from the Pledge can onto the floor, and CH and I have nearly killed...

The Stumbling Girls went along with me on one of my Hawaii business trips. Even though I am so bored visiting Hawaii after so many times, they really enjoyed it. Especially the beach and swimming pool. One highlight of the trip was a Hawaiian Luau. Neither I nor the girls have ever been to one of these before, so we decided to go one night. There was a delicious buffet with lots of Hawaiian food,...

The Stumbling girls visit wrapped up this week. First we went to visit my friends WJ and HJ, who recently had their first baby SS:From left to right, that is HJ, WJ, and SS. Fortunately SS looks like HJ and not WJ! We went out to dinner after meeting the baby, and at some delicions Shaboo-shaboo (it is very thinly sliced beef which you boil in a boiling pot of thin broth with vegetables). The...

I've been buying a bread at the local bakery for awhile now, its name is "56h". Previously, I understood this meant the bread was fresh for 56 hours. This past week, when shopping for the bread, I happened to study closely the label. What I read completely confounded me. I must say "Konglish Alert", or, perhaps, since this is the "Paris Baguette", can we say "Konch Alert"? (if Korean + English...

This week Mrs. Stumbler prepared some American style chili stew for our Korean friends CH and HS (their baby ES did not eat any). It was a success, I must say. HS and I ate two full bowls each, not to mention rice, salad, and bread. We topped off the evening with a peanut butter pie which Mrs. Stumbler made, and also introduced them a fun-packed game of Yahtzee. Here are all the girls before dinner:Unfortunately,...

On Tuesday, we decided to go on an outing to the Seoul Grand Park. This is a huge complex boasting a zoo, a technology museum, an art museum, and an amusement park. CH was very kind to drive us to the park, whereupon it immediately began to rain. After scrambling for two umbrellas, we began touring the zoo. Within 10 minutes of buying overpriced umbrellas, naturally the rain stopped, and we had...

We went on a little adventure yesterday. Took the subway to the Yeongdeungpo-gu Office Station and walked a short way to the Yangpyeong Costco store. There were a lot of cool things, most of them packaged too big for The Stumbler's small apartment. However, this place turns out to be a great source for cheese!! If only for cheese, I will be returning to this place in the future. They also had...

This morning, YS#4 finally was brave and came to me to have her loose tooth pulled out. After almost getting my fingers bitten off, finally the tooth came out. Here is the proud girl with a small gap, and the missing too...

Well, finally The Stumbling girls got to experience the Korean singing room, or no-rae-bang. We went last night with CH and JI, after eating a delicious dinner of Korea-style pot roast (갈비찜 for my Korean friends). At first, YS#4 was a little shy of the microphone, but by the end of the evening she was singing londly and jumping up and down with her new singing buddy JI.Mr. Cool Guy CH...The Stumbling...

Well, this Sunday being Easter, the Stumbling girls are busy preparing colored Easter eggs. We bought some eggs at the store, but they were worried. In Korea, almost all the eggs have brown, not white shells. So, when shopping, we decided to buy a package of quail eggs. I often eat these at restaurants, but never tried to boil them myself. Well, we did, and you can see the result is quite pretty....

While I keep myself busy with work, I worry the other Stumblers are going crazy staying inside this small apartment all day. I tried to help matters by buying a Badminton set for YS#4YS#4 went with me to get my haircut the other day, and had a good time playing with my camera.One evening we went with CH, his wife HS and their new 2-month old baby girl ES to dinner. Here is Mrs. Stumbler and CH's...

The visit this time is not a vacation like last time, as I am very busy with work. But we did take some time Saturday to go around a little bit. I had to get a computer at the Yongsan electronics shopping area, and CH took us all there for shopping and lunch. Afterwards, CH drove us for a short visit to Samcheongak where we walked around and enjoyed the fresh mountain air.Here are the Stumbling...
