Mino's Home-Cooked Meals and Family Time
Mino's been making me dinner every night after work. So delicious!
Back to work again. Driving every day.
It's summer vacation, but the traffic wasn't bad. I was happy to get to work in just 35 minutes this week.
Delicious curry!
Someone's waiting for dinner.
One day, we went out for pork belly.
We were on our way to eat frozen pork belly, but we took a detour and tried a new Korean BBQ place.
The pork jowl was decent, at least.
I'm definitely more about quality over quantity. (Next time, I'm going to the frozen pork belly place without hesitation!)
Mino made boiled pork (Suyuk)!
He came home from work and made radish kimchi, stew, and Suyuk in just an hour. Such an amazing man! It was so delicious. I love Suyuk!
Mino's boss gifted us some makgeolli (Korean rice wine).
Seoul Wolmae Makgeolli (?) It's pretty good!
The next day, I was craving ramen, but we only had one pack left.
So, I made ramen and added my bacon and scrambled eggs.
We even had fried rice made with the leftover braised spicy monkfish. A varied (?) and delicious meal!
Buying coffee and heading out!
Where are we going?
Stopped by my mom's relative's newly opened goat meat soup restaurant to chat.
Packed up some goat meat soup to go.
Arrived at my grandma's house!
A table full of Grandma's side dishes and the restaurant's takeout.
Ate so well! It was my first time trying black goat soup, and it was pretty good.
The pumpkin vines have taken over Grandma's yard.
Got some pumpkin leaves and trimmed them.
I wanted to steam and wrap them for dinner, but I'll trim them and take them home.
I gave Grandma the book of poems written by my father-in-law.
Suddenly, Grandma's reading it intensely even while lying down! LOL So funny!
Is she really reading... or just pretending...?
The next morning, Mino and I took a walk around the neighborhood.
Visited my old elementary school for the first time in a while.
When I think of the rose of Sharon (mugunghwa), I remember stopping my bike in front of the school and picking the pistils to play with.
This was the auditorium.
The path to the cafeteria.
The giraffe statue and the reading girl statue are still there.
I was so scared of the rumors that the statues would change at night.
Take care!
Took a picture of the stationery store and the oil shop in front of the school.
Country couple;
Our neighborhood.
Went for a walk and then had breakfast.
Ate the leftover goat meat soup again.
After breakfast, we went to a cafe somewhere in Nonsan.
A cafe and restaurant with a view of Topjeong Reservoir and a well-kept garden.
Took a picture of the three of us.
Took a picture with Grandma.
Keeping lots of memories.
I heard they give you a ton of salad here?!?!?!?!
They had a family set (?) so we had lunch here and then took Grandma home and went back to our place.
I can't remember the name of this restaurant, please leave a comment if you know.
I was craving Tteokbokki, so I ordered it even though it was Sunday.
But I got the mildest flavor. I think it was called 'Kind' or 'Beginner' but it was tasty anyway!
While eating Tteokbokki, I was watching the show "I am Solo", and they ate Jajangmyeon (black bean noodles), so I ended up ordering Jajangmyeon too!
From that day on, my hormones seemed to be kicking in again.
Sunday night ended with a carb party... hehehe
