Ewwww

One of the daily issues of life in #China is that they don’t clean the Eggs before you get them. So you gotta get the poop off before you can stick ’em in the fridge. These Eggs actually came from #Walmart and were in a real #Egg cart๐Ÿ˜ฎ Usually you gotta pick ’em out of a giant pile by hand ๐Ÿ˜บ

Homemade Pizza!

First ever #homemade #pizza!!!! Made from scratch and pretty impressive if I say so myself. #China does not seem to believe in pizza #sauce since none of their pizza have much if any. They have a tendency to just throw #cheese on the dough without. So, tonight (to celebrate end of the #semester), I decided to try at a REAL (Okay, fairly recognizable) pizza-ish pizza! Came out yummy!๐Ÿ•

Pork Belly!

#Pork Fat Back / Pork Belly is a popular dish in #China!    The have a kind of #BBQ sauce they add to it. Good! (although this one was a little oily.)

Crawfish day!

#Crawfish day at #KFC! ๐Ÿ˜œ  There were about 7 employees rushing around with floating hats.  Totally made my day!

Breakfast in Seoul

One of my #Korea favorites! #Peach Iced #tea at the Paris Baguette. With a delicious ham & cheese muffin. . . . Great start to a Great day!

Movie Night!

Gathers the shells AND holds your phone! The all-around perfect movie night companion!

Actually, #sunflower seeds are REALLY popular as a snack here in #China – my students always bring a ton to movie night ๐Ÿ˜œ

Spicy Beef Soup!

Spicy Beef #soup with noodles, cabbage, peppers. and other veggies. ๐Ÿด

The Jelly Mystery

The #German Metro #market has every jelly known to man (plum, prune, marmelade, strawberry, apple, blackberry, raspberry. . . . )  All of them EXCEPT Grape! The one I like.  The one that is EVERYWHERE in America but the #Chinese have never heard of.  I miss grape jelly! PBJ is not the same without it. ๐Ÿ˜ญ  Met a guy from the #Netherlands the other day, he had never heard of grape jelly either.  What is wrong with the world! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Grape jelly is a staple! A foundational part of biscuits and #breakfast! 

Toad Bellies!

Strange #salad at the steakhouse the other night ๐Ÿ˜œ Back in #America when I was a kid, we use to blow in the leaves and make ‘#toad bellies’. ๐Ÿ˜‚   Had no idea you could #Eat them!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Delicous treasure from one of my adorable students today – another gave me some Bon Bons.  Since I had to work on #thanksgiving (not a Holiday abroad ๐Ÿ˜ญ), this was quite the treat!
