🍲class

During cooking class, we made kimbap and gakdoogi which is radish, spicy sauce, sugar, and salt. For the gakdoogi, we first cut the radish, then put it into a bag, added sugar and salt, shook it up, and finally added spicy sauce. For the kimbap, we got a roller and some seaweed on it. Then, we added rice with a 5-cm gap with no rice. We had to add the stuff inside next, and then roll it up and cut it.

Busy weekend

Image
On Friday Bryce went to his first high school dance. The theme was Grease, so we made sure he had watched the movie the weekend before. He was out from 7 pm until I picked him up at 11:30 pm. Kyusik's parents arrived that evening, picking up Acadian from soccer practice along the way home. They'll be staying with us for 2 weeks while we are in Taipei for Dave and Tomasz's wedding celebration and will then spend a few days in Yosemite after we return.  Yesterday was insanely busy with Acadian's soccer game, dropping Bryce off for his waterpolo team sleepover, and then heading straight down to Stanford to visit the Rodin sculpture garden, pho at a Vietnamese institution in San Jose, Indian grocery store shopping in Milpitas, and returning to Stanford for a play called Hidden Strawberries about the impact of wildfires on migrant farm workers. The play was written by an Iranian postdoctoral fellow at the School of Sustainability. He is a scientist and playwright and based t...

Back to back belated b-day parties and back to school

Image
Last Monday-Tuesday, Bryce had freshman orientation. On Tuesday, he showed up at the same bus stop as 2 middle school friends of his: Frankie and Isa. Frankie's mom has a Vietnamese rice noodle company that supplies products to Thistle, and I used to work at UCSF with Isa's mom. The Saturday before school started, Bryce invited 4 middle school friends to see Wolverine and Deadpool. Kyusik treated them all to drinks and popcorn, which ended up costing more than the discounted tickets I'd bought at Costco that also included $60 in food vouchers. Afterwards Acadian and I met them for ramen in Japantown and Japanese soft serve. (Thai tea and kinako were the flavors of the month.)  The next day, we celebrated Acadian's birthday 3 months late with a pool party in Burlingame. This is one of the few public pools on the Peninsula, and all SF public pools are indoors because it's never warm enough. Although I'd called and asked in advance, when we arrived the front desk t...

Waterpolo and art

Image
Even though he could barely swim a few laps, Bryce tried out water polo in the fall. Over the course of several months, he worked hard and became a strong swimmer  and one of the better players on the JV team. He also made some great friends. His teammates voted him as the most improved. The team is really sweet with the senior boys taking the frosh under their wings and giving them advice in the locker rooms. One senior hosted the entire team at his family's winery for a sleepover. In a photo at the end of the season, Bryce is doing a speech to honor one of the senior boys with whom he was closest. Bryce has enjoyed the sport so much that he then did club water polo over the winter, which meant that Kyusik and I had to take turns doing a very complicated carpool to Burlingame 4 days/week with 4 other families. It was a 3-4 hour commitment because after driving there and back, the practices were 2 hours, and it was too far for the parent to drive home in between. Bryce is now on th...
