Kimchi & Such



I didn’t know that it was Buddha’s Birthday until I saw the sign.

I guess that it wasn’t exactly his birthday. A little digging around shows that in 2009, Buddha’s Birthday falls on May 2nd, whereas Joe & I went out for Korean BBQ on May 4th. (Restaurant rec sent by Jenny K. at culturepress.)

But no matter . . . the food was great, especially the little bowls of banchan (side dishes), set in front of us just before the main course: kimchi and such.

Wow!

Oooh, did you try one of the places that I recommended? How was it? It LOOKS delish!!!

Just got back from the Baltimore, MD area, visiting a good friend. We had Maryland crabcakes, tried to stay cool in the muggy heat, and saw a lovely blue heron on a hike. Just got back late last night, only to find a bunch of e-mails requesting jewelry orders! Is this is sign-- no more recession, perhaps???
