let's all get food babies~~ DINNER PARTY!!

On Tuesday, I spent my whole work day reading recipes and watching cooking shows on Youtube (what an awesome way to earn money). And then the little cook in me was kicking and screaming and fighting to get out! So off to Homeplus I went (my favourite place in Korea - a massive supermarket complex which is open till midnight!!!) and I bought a whole cart full of food to cure that itch.

Today, I spent my whole work day thinking of what to cook. And then I sent off massive texts to whoever and everyone that I knew. Wednesdays I get off work an hour earlier than usual so I went home and cooked up a storm. Whilst tidying my place up a bit (so that it looks somewhat presentable) I realized that I only had two chairs. Two glasses. Two mugs. And two spoons. Crap….I didnt even have enough plates or bowls so I had to cook and wash at the same time.

Anyhow, I think I got too excited with inviting people, so I toned it down a little and it came down to five people. On the menu was beef with brocolli; soy sauce chicken; garlic cabbage; eggs and tomatoes. There were little obstacles - I managed to drop my salt canister into the eggs so it was super salty and I tried to save it with a whole load of sugar and water and it miraculously turned out okay…but for the most part I was quite impressed with myself (even if I say so !)

Everybody seemed to like my food (or so they say) and they kept praising me so much that my head officially went two sizes larger. The best part was that every dish was cleaned out. Oh, I feel like such a grandmother, but I love it when people eat alot of my food. Especially when they finish everything!!

Maybe I should just get married and be a housewife so I can have a nicer kitchen and cook all day long!!
