I'm drooling. And I'm sad. This week when I made my way to the Asian grocery in my neighborhood, I couldn't get my usual favorite treats: it closed down. I was planning to buy Korean rice cakes to make New Year's tteokguk, and I'm truly sad that I couldn't make it this year. I'm not sure where I'll get my fresh tofu, bok choi, kimchi, mochi, rice paper, sea weed, etc etc etc. I guess I'll just be hungry forever now.

PS the introduction is such a sweet adoption story.
