Kimbap, Korean seaweed rice rolls and Billy Jean

"Thou shall not judge others."
This is one valuable lesson I learned earlier in my life.
Have you ever been surprised by someone who has an amazing talent that you never thought he/she would have? It came to a such surprise that you couldn't believe your eyes?

I was in middle school, provably 8th grade.
There was an interesting girl in my class. Her name was Mi-gyoung.
So quiet and shy, she hardly ever talk to anyone. She was an all-A student in every academic subjects. Wearing a thick glasses with messy hair, she looked just like one of those nerdy-smarty kid in many movies. She was always alone. Many, including myself, thought she was a boring person.

Rice balls, the redeeming grace of leftover rice

Do you like rice? I do. 

In fact I eat too much that my every new year's resolution of getting rid of that rice belly never seems to be possible. 

Do you have lots of leftover rice in your fridge and you are thinking of getting rid of them?

Please, don't.

My mother used to say when I was a kid that each grain of rice is like each drop of farmer's sweat. They put their souls to harvest those precious grain and if you waste any, you are disgracing their job.

So, eat your rice, every single grain, to support our farmers.

My rice belly is a living proof of my support, and it is all natural! 
...and I decided to be proud of it until who knows...
