Mother’s Stir-Fried Anchovies

October 31, 2011 family

I love my parents for being able to find joy and peace even in something as sad as death. They returned from my grandfather’s funeral in Korea last Friday, fatigued from double jet-lag but thankful for all the silver linings. Like all families, my mother’s family has their fair share of dramas and feuds. But [...]

Wine & The City, Video Wrap-Up

October 28, 2011 eating out

It’s my birthday today! I can do whatever I want! So I’m forcing you to watch this silly video that wraps up the Santa Barbara trip: After wine and fun, we were definitely well-fed and well-buzzed, but the time clicked “dinner” so we drove back down to downtown Santa Barbara for our last supper. Tracy [...]

Wine & The City, Part II

October 25, 2011 eating out

Whenever I think of a wine tasting lounge, I envision a small, solemn group of tall, thin individuals dressed in black. They sit in a row at a long, skinny table with a few bottles of wine in front of them. They very gravely pour a few droplets of wine into their crystal-clear glass. They [...]

Wine & the City, Part I

October 24, 2011 eating out

It’s been a crazy, mind-fusing week, and my schedule is going to continue to fizz and foment like an over-shaken soda bottle until this semester ends. You know that feeling. It’s like you’ve been injected with some kind of hyperactive drug and your bloodstream is pounding superhuman energy through your body and your mind is [...]

Acorn and the Tree

October 19, 2011 eating out

My grandfather—mother’s side—died Wednesday morning. I got the news from my cousin, who sent me an urgent Facebook message, who said my relatives couldn’t reach my parents. It was 3 a.m. Pacific Time, which meant it was 6 a.m. over at my parents’. I called them several times, biting my nails. I had never broken [...]

The Parents Service and Fried Sauce Noodles

October 18, 2011 eating out

I wish my parents will just move to the west coast already. They were only visiting for four days, but I almost got used to coming back home from school and discovering my apartment sparkling clean. Only parents would do something like that. Fatigued by jet lag and three weeks of missionary work, and yet [...]
