More cooking

Friday was a long afternoon to be at home because the weather was rainy.
So I made more cookies with the help of my little boy, that also helped
"washing the dishes" after baking.

Here are some pictures of the cookies, some of them are made with
chestnut cream and chocolate.

South Korean photographer

Today I saw on a magazine the photos of a Korean photographer,
Jeong Mee Yoon.

I liked them very much, most of all obviously the ones with cute
Korean babies:

Good news!

Today our agency put on its website the new waiting list
and I've discovered that we have 13 couples before us.
I thought they were 15 so I'm quite happy!

I'm doomed

My mother has a collection of masks,
while my grandmother has one
of little vases and jugs.

What I've discovered?
That the best items to buy in Korea are...

Traditional masks



and the famous celadon vases!

Coincidences

I opened this blog on 14th February, when the Lunar Year of the Tiger -
백 호 호랑이 - started in Korea.
This is more specifically the Year of the White Tiger, the first one in 60 years!


I was also born in a Year of the Tiger.

Let's hope these coincidences will bring us some luck in our journey!

Life is surprising

Yesterday I was talking with an old friend of mine.
She said that life is surprising because now she's speaking to everybody
about his husband that would be chosen in the next Regional elections.
She never imagined something like that for her life.

Well, that's right also for me. Sure I'd never thought when I was younger
of finding a child into another part of the world...

The second toy

Some time ago I decided to "create" something new for the Korean baby
with the help of my first son.

I've read about an Italian retailer of beds
that will give a toy called "Sleepy" to every child that will send a coloured version of it.

You just have to download and print it, than send it all decorated.
Well, I've done it and with the help of my son I coloured the drawing.

After some weeks I received a big packet with our new Sleepy!


My son obviously wanted to play with him sometimes and he
decided anyway that the name Sleepy didn't fit the toy and he called it "Napy".
It's a cute name because it looks like something for "nap time"...
