Who will she choose???

All of you know by now that I am reality TV queen. Yes, I'm addicted. Luckily, I have had one consistent partner (Angie) throughout this season's "The Bachelorette."

The Bachelors in the Finale....

Ed: The guy who left the show for his demanding career...then returned sacrificing it all and professing his love for Jillian. I don't buy it.

Kiptyn: Buff bodied surfer/businessman from San Diego...great qualities but has always been the "heartbreaker." Uh oh.

Then Reid...my favorite all season: Funny, smart, handsome, all the qualities Jillian was looking for in a guy. When they're together, they look like a match made in heaven. But what does the stupid girl do? She sent him home last week! But there's hope! In a preview for next week's season finale, Reid comes back with a RING! Oh please oh please.....

So who will she choose?

The Motherland

Things I learned about Korea on my last visit:

1. I could NEVER live there. Maybe a month MAX.

2. 80% of the population (or so it seems) has had cosmetic surgery.

3. I ran into a couple men wearing capris and heels.

4. Almost everyone on the subway is listening to music or either dozing.

5. Korean people are rude. There's no such thing as personal space.

6. Food is relatively cheap. I love it.

7. Girls are so vain. They constantly take pictures of themselves.

8. There is a Dunkin Donuts on every other block in Seoul.

9. A big mac meal is less than $3 between 11am-2pm.

10. I hate mosquitos. One night, my left arm was uncovered and was bitten in six different places.

11. I love shopping in Korea. Bargaining is always fun.

12. It's convenient to have subways, although I did miss driving my car.

13. People drink anytime of the day. One day, I was passing a restaurant and a couple was drinking soju at 2pm in the afternoon.

14. The girls wear short shorts!

15. Why can't they get toilet seatcovers???

My latest craving....

Today, Elena and I had dinner together at Red Robin's after a long day at work. As if fries and yummy food at Red Robin's wasn't enough, we found ourselves in the McDonald's drive-thru a couple blocks away. Hee hee. I don't know what it is about those damn McFlurry's but it's like a taste of HEAVEN! Funny thing is, the last time Elena and I had one, we complained about how small the McFlurry's were getting in their portion size (sad, huh?). This time, the first thing I said was "WOW! IT'S SO BIG!" I felt like a little kid as my eyes lit up! Then, the drive-thru lady offered us 2 extra soft serves. She was going to toss them but I think as soon as she saw the excitment on my face, she probably thought to herself "Here are a couple girls that would appreciate a free ice cream!" hahahahaha.

Yum....

Who wants to cook?

So I've realized that I've been neglecting my husband of home-cooked meals recently. I just lost all motivation for cooking when it came to recent events that took over, (i.e. birthdays, weddings, showers, etc). I really thought I would be better at this. If there was someone to prepare the ingredients and clean up after me, I would cook everyday! Luckily, David's been self sufficient in the kitchen and has managed to get through his meals (usually chicken adobo, kimchi chigae, or kimchi bokkumbab). Maybe what I need is a really good cookbook to get me motivated!
