Family Fun

I've been gone a long time!

Not deliberately, really- my parents are in town, and as they are staying with me, I am a bit busier than usual. Plus, work is starting to pick up.

So I don't really have much news or anything, and my brain isn't full of ideas to write about. Instead, I have a picture of what my lovely mother made last night:


I took this photo on my phone, because it was convenient and I just wanted to eat these jun or jeon (전), which is the name for so-called Korean pancakes.

At the left are zucchini jeon, which are sliced, dusted with flour, dipped in beaten egg, and then pan fried.

In the middle are fish jeon, pieces of fish that are also dusted with flour, dipped in beaten egg, and then pan fried.

And around the top are tofu jeon,which are one of my all-time favorite foods.

Dinner was yummy- I miss Korean food, and I miss my mother's cooking!

It's great to have them here, and I plan to enjoy my time with them. I'll be back to regularly scheduled blogging once the parents leave (this weekend).
