One reader noted that I seem to read a lot of what he/she called "kvetchpatry"-promoting blogs, to which I replied I would love to hear about other good blogs.
So that got me thinking that I should put up a post asking for more such suggestions, something that might be worthy of the esteemed honor of being on the "Blog roll of blogs that list me in their blog roll (plus a few other blogs I like or check out)" or the uber honor of making "Our Daily Breadth."
So if you're holed up on the East Coast because of Hurricane Irene flooding, have at it. Everyone else, too.

Because you need more online reading to waste your time. lol. Anyhow, a lot of people from the ESL wasteland read this blog, so if people have precious links that you do not want to taint with such eyes, I suggest you send it to kushibo through email.
ReplyDeleteYou could be more descriptive. Just any good blog?

Thanks for the recommendations.
ReplyDeleteIn Hawaii, Korea food blogs make me sad. There's very little in the way of good Korean food, or innovative Korean food, at least that can be afforded on a grad student budget.
But the cheap eats are pretty passable, though.
Well, if you are a good cook, why not make your own dishes?

Well, I'm thinking more along the lines of Korea-related or at least Asia-related blogs, but I'm open to anything. When in doubt, just go ahead and send it through.

My problem is I don't have the time or money these days to be a good cook. I prepare myself a very nutritious oatmeal every morning (steel-cut oats, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, and some fresh fruit of the day cut up and cooked with it).
Back in Seoul, I ate easy-to-make bachelor food and ate out a lot. It's so easy and cheap to eat Korean food to your heart's content in all the mom-and-pop eateries, so I really didn't have to learn how to make anything. I should take a class, I guess.
I do know how to bake, though.
Well, if you want a quick and easy way to cook stews/hot pots, 손쉬운 찌개-전골 is good. http://www.kyobobook.co.kr/product/detailViewKor.laf?ejkGb=KOR&mallGb=KOR&barcode=9788957915400&orderClick=LEA
ReplyDeleteThe recipes are very simple and easy to make using minimal ingredients and taste very delicious.

itissaid, thanks for all the links. I'm beginning to think you really are holed up somewhere because of flooding from Irene.
ReplyDeleteWell, I had all those links before, but didn't want to post them all at once. Anyhow, no, I was not affected by Irene.
ReplyDeleteRecommend my own, though its not something I go around doing (promotion), www.no-kancho.net
ReplyDeleteInteresting blog, noe. I left a comment at the "Chuseok is near!" post because the picture of the kids stripping down and swimming in the urban Ch'ŏnggyech'ŏn Stream as if they were back in the countryside kinda cracked me up. Heck, why not?

I don't know if you'll like my blog or not, you don't seem to like my opinions. I sort of started it because you wanted to argue with me on One Free Korea. Well, not really, but that argument was the impetus that got me moving. Anyway, I've only been online a couple weeks. Google and Yahoo are just now finding me.
