Korean Fish Market





This week, we visited Chinhae, Korea. Due to a camera battery issue, we did not get to capture all of our Korean dining; however, we were able to get some pictures of the local fish market.

On this evening, I went to a famous Izikia in Tokyo. On the menu was beef Tataki (seared), rabbit liver served with strawberry and chocolate sauce, fried crab ball and salted pork on a stick.

Street Food in Yokosuka Japan




I finally got to try some cow tongue yakitori (grilled on a stick). Also on the menu was heart, intestines, chicken skin and a variety of other meats.

Refinished the Deck




Another "big" project; refinishing the deck.

PIne Needle Vice Mulch

Upon the recommendation of my Brother and his wife, we opted to put down pine needle vice mulch--since it's supposed to last longer and easier to spread out. I think we may have started a trend in the neighborhood.

This picture was taken from Katelin's bedroom window. A hot air balloon makes a landing in our front yard.
