Weekly Dinner Party

So I feel like I should write SOMETHING each week to keep you posted on what's going on. Some weeks there are things that happen and some weeks, it is just same old same old. I know you understand, as it is the same in your life too. Well, this week nothing happened. It kept raining and raining. The kids came and went. There were good days and bad days. etc. etc. etc. Anyway, I thought I would share something that we have started doing on the weekends that is really nice. Those of us who stay here on the weekends have started throwing weekly "dinner parties". Everyone tries to cook something that they like from home and we get together and dine as a group. It is so much more fun that cooking something for yourself and eating in the room. Of course, it can be quite frustrating as most of the ingredients you want cannot be found in Korea. Also, not having a proper kitchen can be challenging as well. But for the most part, we do really well. This week the menu included, BBQ chicken breasts, mini pizzas, chicken spring rolls, toad in the hole (a UK dish), au gratin potatoes, corn soup, tuna noodle salad and apple pie. Really awesome. I made the au gratin potatoes and anything with cheese is always a hit. last week I did guacamole. Anyway- here are the pics of us dining out on our screened porch.
Not much else went on this weekend. We wasted our time and money on Friday night watching The Mummy 3. Saturday night we stayed in and watched The Shining. We did have a sunny day ALL day today- which just was such a welcome break from the rain. Anyway- Melanie and Austin will be here Friday night, so I expect this week will drag. But, next post will have news from their visit and lots of pictures. Until then, take care and drop me an email. I AM ALMOST HALFWAY!!!! :) :) :)
