Korean hillbilly food

Spam fried rice...we eat it at least once every 5 days. Spam of all things is a main staple in Korea. If you go to E-Mart, there is an entire isle dedicated to Spam. The story goes: back during the Korean War, Spam was a food that was distributed to all the American soldiers most days. When some soldiers tossed their cans of Spam off to the side they were picked up by South Koreans who ended up LOVING it for life.

Steve is the one who perfected our family recipe. Of course we start off with a fresh Korean rice cooked in our rice cooker. We add 3 eggs, 1 can of spam chopped to our skillet and cook with a spoonful of oil. Then stir in the cooked rice, a TBSP of soy sauce, 1 tsp Lawry's and stir fry for a few minutes. We love this stuff!!!

Building 63

The 5th graders from Seoul Elementary got to go on a really cool field trip to Building 63...I got to go too. Do you see the really tall gold building across the Han River? That is building 63...only a 10 min. drive from our house.

Building 63 is one of the tallest buildings in East Asia and boy was is neat riding the glass elevator to the top. Check out Seoul, Korea...it's huge! Buildings as far as the eye can see.

Ben took his DSi and to lots of fun picturs of the views and his friends.

Inside Building 63 is some classy upscale shopping and eating. The building also hosts an aquarium. We walk on the glass walkway over some sharks. Funny thing is there were sound effects...about every min. you would hear glass shattering and get nervous.

The kids watch a show with the fish and a diver.

Dr. Fish. Have you heard of them. They are those little fish that eat your dead skin. Ben hung out with the Dr. Fish for 20 min. or more, he loved that gross stuff. My friend Betty has gone to a spa near our house that she says is really nice and has played with Dr. Fish with her feet.

There is also an IMAX theater in Building 63. The kids and adults were all given those little boxes and headphones so we could hear the English version while watching.

There she is...building 63. So far this year this has been our favorite field trip. Not sure whats next, but I know the DMZ...North Korean border is on the 5th grade agenda...I can't wait for that field trip.

My first dresden plate

The other day Madi was home sick. When I am forced to stay home all day I always get so many things accomplished. That day I made my first dresden plate...I can't believe I did it. I thought it was something too hard for me. Now I would like to try another one, it was fun.

Yesterday my kids had a snowday...no school. They wanted to play outside but I needed to make dinner. So even though I am nice and warm in my own kitchen cooking, I can still watch my kids playing outside. The security cameras and built in TV in my kitchen sure come in handy...only in Korea...I love this place.

For the kids after school snack today I made

hot chocolate chip cookies.

My new haircut...it's growing short these days.

Today was great. Living here in Korea makes me feel like...a princess. I had a hair apt. I called a taxi. I ride the elevator down, walk past my doorman and exit the big glass doors to my taxi there waiting for me. My driver dropped me off at that beautiful Dragon Hill Lodge. When moving here to Korea my hair was one of my concerns...I didn't think I would find a good hairstylist...WRONG. Her name is Sonya and I LOVE the way she does my hair. When you are in the spa at the Dragon Hill those Korean ladies take good care of you. It's such a treat.

I took a few pics and couldn't decide which one was showing off my new doo best so I put them all on here. My hair is pretty short these days and I like the layers and flips. After getting my hair done I caught a taxi home because we were expecting company tonight.

My friend Betty and her family came over tonight. My husband works with her husband...Weather Men. I met Betty through blogging before I ever moved to Korea. Blogging has brought me people in life I have needed. My little Madi was saved because I met some through blogging...someone who helped me see the signs of Madi having Type 1 Diabetes. Then with my move to Korea...through blogging I had a friend in Betty who waited for me to arrive in Korea with open arms and making me feel welcome the day I got here. What a fun afternoon and evening our families had together. All the boys played football on the PS3, the little girls did cheers and put on a fantastic half time show for us, all the while Betty and I were in my craft room sewing away. For dinner we ate delicious Korean pizza, while watching a moving about the Ohio State/Michigan saga...Betty's husband is from Ohio too.

The leather grocery bag...

...by Chanel. The other day the military dads had the day off work, so my fun neighbor Liz and I went shopping. Our husbands were so nice to happily watch the kids while us girls went shopping...our favorite passtime here in Korea. This is now my most favorite purse!!!! I love everything Chanel.
