There is not a whole lot to report from our weekend once again. We have been choosing to stay home and be lazy in our warm house for the most part. However, we did pick up a few small things on our list for the house, including a teapot because when Koreans come to your house you are supposed to give them instant coffee and it's a bit embarrassing when you have to heat the water in a noodle pot... We have plans to get some pictures and things up on the walls in the very near future now that we have frames and hooks and yes, the oven will be coming right after the first of the year we are planning!
We decided to make Saturday night a date night and try a buffet restaurant we heard about a while ago. It was an international buffet and steak place. The food wasn't the greatest but it was definitely nice to be able to choose from so many different options! They had pizza, pasta, salad, soup, bread, Asian noodles, dessert and even a taco bar! We also ordered some pork ribs which were quite good. The only thing missing was the kimchi. Yes, when we go to a restaurant in Korea (with the exception of fast food) we now expect (and take advantage of) the all-you-can-eat kimchi.
We have yet to decide exactly what we will be doing for our first American Thanksgiving here in Korea but will let you know later in the week what we ended up with. Regardless of what we eat for dinner, we definitely know we have a whole lot to be thankful for this year! I have been attempting to teach my kindergartners a little bit about American thanksgiving, but I think they are struggling with the fact that they worked really hard to color cute pictures of turkeys when people in America are just going to eat them. We hope everyone back home has a wonderful Thanksgiving week!
