Oh How Fast They Grow Up!
My Kindergartner's have graduated and that means they will be shoved into the nasty, cut-throat world of first grade. A once simple life is now twisted into a complex life full pull-up pants, first loves, nap-less days, life without your sippy cup........... And meeting the lunch ladies! ::shudder:: Oh how I hope they're ready!
Oh how do I love thee? Let me count the ways!
Oh the Splendid Joy of warm weather, sock-less days, scarf-less necks and legitimate "I'm really hot" nasty awesome sweat! It's so heavenly that with all of this Springness in the air, I may never allow God to change the seasons again. Never.. Sorry Dude. :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mr. Webster, Spring and Amnesia
Korea welcomed spring with a four letter word..Snow.. Oh Wow, joy! Yippie Aye Yay! Here in Korea, I'm tingling with excitement. Why I'm just as excited as a kid taking a pop quiz while eating brussels sprouts and doing the dishes.. Snow! On March 22, 2010, The day after the first day of S-P-R-I-N-G?? Spring! Do you hear me, →
Yummers!
What's better than a cupcake? Uhhhh.... Well, that's a ridiculous question, nothing is. :)
So long Sir Frozen Toes, Farewell Mr. Long Johns!
Today I heard something that I thought I would never hear again.. Birds! Oh the beautiful birds.. The ones that poop on your windshield and your head! The sweet birds, They are alive! They were not killed by the treacheries and debaucheries of winter! Can you believe it? They are alive! I've heard the birds! It's true I tell you.... I don't lie, I am honest. →
My Paradise….
Tucked in the Korean mountains just on the fringes of Seoul is a coffee shop that I think deserves a nice little piece of land and sainthood when it gets to heaven. It has touch so many souls in its lifetime that it's practically the Mother Theresa of coffee shops.
A Wintery Wonderland
This past weekend, I had a long weekend and I had the itch to explore the outer realms of Korea, take a dive into the abyss you might say, but where to? Well I of course am super intelligent, a genius really. So where does my genius self go? I went to the only sane place to go to during →
Happy Halloween!….. Uh…Well?
Oh I guess it actually Valentine's day not Halloween....Ah well, Valentine's Day and Halloween are practically the same, and they are equally scary holidays. Halloween you will die by the hand of the little trick or treaters if you don't buy the right kind of candy, and Valentine's Day you will die by the hand of your oh so Special →
Clean off the flip-flops, break out the shorts….. it’s practically summertime!
Well you will be sad to know that I'm back from three weeks of traipsing around Indonesia with Mandy in their chilly 80 degree winter weather :) There are many warm tropical pictures to share very, very soon, but first a few pictures of cold, snowy Korea that greeted me this past week... Somehow snow makes 15 degree weather perfectly →
I have a confession to make..gulp..

Really, I can barely look at myself in the mirror.. but I tried oh so hard to be like a journalist or judge or something and be unbiased..but I →
….yummmmmm…..caffeine
Well.... In the spirit of Father Christmas, afternoon naps, Starbucks coffee and proving my dear friend Elizabeth Lauer wrong, I blogged tonight. Lauer, I won and you're it! Ok....Hugs and Kisses to everyone from Asialand and remember coffee isn't just a beverage, it's a life source.
A beautiful Idea!
It's winter, and I had a wonderful idea a few weeks back! I thought if I acted like I were a bear and went into a hole to hibernate by the time I came out, I would not only get a nice layer of subcutaneous fat, but winter would be over. And, and then I would be free to frolic →
Ben Franklin and a Racist Winter..
It's November in Korea and the rest of the world (at least that's what the liberals on the news tell me), but the winter has already set in, in Korea. There is no fall nor autumn to ease my sun-loving self into winter. Korean winter does not mess around. no siree! It's warm one day and then BAM! One day →
