Wanhee cooking it up

 

To get in the spirit of our upcoming trip to Korea, we had a Korea barbeque last night.  One of our good friends is quite the cook, and he did all of the cooking. Since it has been awahile since we have hosted one of these parties, when we return from Korea, it will be our turn to cook.

 

I am getting excited about all the Korean meals that JJ and I are going to be able to enjoy in Korea.  I have been missing the multitude of side dishes that are served with meals in Korea.  We really do not have a problem obtaining Korean cuts of beef, but getting good side dishes has been a problem.

 

Jaemon is camera shy

 

Jaemon is one of the reasons that my Korean has improved a bit over the last few months.  Jaemon is usually the one that interrupts me when I am telling a story in English and implores me to continue in Korean.  His English is very good, and he only asks so that I get more practice in Korean. I have made some improvement, but the real test will be in a couple of weeks when I am surrounded by family that speaks little English.  I have been brushing up on a few key phrases that I know will be uttered by father in law and can only hope that I will have the correct responses.
