March 2010



We thought we were done with snow and then it snowed again the first week of March.
It was heavy wet snow! I came home in the evening with a little rain and the Cameron came home a couple of hours later and it was already falling heavily. This was how it looked on our way to work. 

The view from school.

Dinner. Fried squid, dumplings and veggies. Soy sauce for dipping.
Right corner: dok boki - rice cake with a spicy red pepper sauce. Also fish sausage which I'm not fond of.

Kindergarten started in March. That is the normal school year for all of the Korean kindergartens.
We have a birthday party each month for the students and teachers who have birthdays in that month.
This is the first party ever.

The little white, green and pink balls on the table next to the cake are rice cakes filled with honey and sesame. They are my favorite of the Korean rice cakes. 
Each student in the age group brings a small gift. And the birthday boy or girl brings a small gift in return. Kind of like our party favors.

Why can't we share? 
Ok, that's better.

The cats playing with the laser toy I got at Walmart while I was home. 
They were hysterical to watch!

Our new apartment building. 

We had a leak in our window. Before the guys came to fix it we moved everything out of the way. The striped chair is Callie's favorite place to lay in winter, so she decided to lay there anyway.
Orion looking regal.
The guy filled in the space with foam insulation. I think he filled it a little too much. As it expanded it started growing into our living room like an alien life form.

Jeanelle's birthday.
Indian food and then the decorate your own cake place!
