Wish I had something to share today that is different.  I've been hand sewing the binding down on Kandy Katz and planning the first visits of friends and family since the pandemic took hold.

Chris and Rebecca come on Tuesday for dinner.  We will celebrate with a Korean Barbeque dinner.  First course a cabbage soup called Baechu Doenjang Guk.  I went to a local Korean market, H Mart, to get two of the ingredients.  It was certainly worth it!  Here's the recipe https://tastykitchen.com/recipes/soups/cabbage-doenjang-soup/.

The main course was Korean Barbeque.  I picked up Noh seasoning mix from Vons and will use flank steak instead of short ribs.  This was prepared and marinated over night.

Then there are sides of Jasmine rice from my rice cooker and four others. 

Egg Roll Omelette called Gyeran Mari https://tastykitchen.com/recipes/sidedishes/eggroll-omelette/

Spicy Cucumber Salad called Oi Muchim https://tastykitchen.com/recipes/sidedishes/spicy-cucumber-salad-2/

Spicy Radish Salad called Saeng Chae https://tastykitchen.com/recipes/sidedishes/spicy-radish-salad/

Spinach Side Dish called Sigeumchi Namul https://tastykitchen.com/recipes/sidedishes/spinach-side-dish/

All of this will be topped off with a desert of fresh pineapple over sponge cake with Ben and Jerry's Vanilla Ice Cream!  Finally, which actually will start our evening a champagne toast to being with them after a long draught!  Many of the preparation work was done today so I could spend time with the guests and not in the kitchen =^.^=

I did download Laundry Basket Quilts Mystery Quilt 2021 Block 7, but that is as far as I got.  Tomorrow will be much the same with Block 8, and likely not back to sewing until Block 9 or Block 10.  They aren't too hard to sew it's the cutting that takes the time.

This weekend brings Don and Rita...planning on what to prepare for meals will start Wednesday.  Hope your week is full of fun things.
