Happy "Belated" Lunar New Year... the Year of the Horse...

Last week, I made some bulgogi in honor of the Lunar New Year.   This is one of the Korean dishes that I loved to eat.  I learned how to cook it too.  I haven't had it in a long time and I got so hungry for it.   Served in my Italian Pasta plates (or soup bowls as I often use them for)... it was yummy.   I didn't mind the 3 meals of left-overs either.   

I bought Fortune Cookies for the children in my classroom.   They really did like them.  Of course, I had to 'translate' the fortunes into 'kids speak' for them so that they'd understand them. 

Happy New Year!

If you stayed up late... I hope you got lots of rest later.

I'm still unpacking boxes.  I have worked on this for the past couple of days.   I had company visiting for a week and they left on Sunday... so, I started unpacking more boxes.   THINGS are a total mess now!   I have stuff in the downstairs hallway, the guest bedroom down there, the living room down there, etc.   I have empty boxes stacked ready to be taken to the garage and added to the huge stack of other 'flattened' empty boxes.  It looks far worse than it did.

This is a little Italian cat that I found sleeping on a boat. I always take photos of any cats that I come across in my travels.
