Jamie and I went out to eat at a "nah moole" restaurant on Sunday night, which serves barbequed pork, fish, rice, and boiled bulgolgi along with - surprise! - lots of nah moole. The nah moole is the green, stringy stuff in the small white dishes. I think it's best described as either a "herb dish" or a "weed dish". You can choose you prefer based on your temperament, but I for one prefer the latter (I love telling people I eat weeds! And I sure do eat a lot of it - it's delicious) Jamie, however, 
would prefer it be called a "wild herb dish." As she tells me whenever I want to nah moo about the nah moole: most restaurants get their "nah moole" weeds, er, herbs - and there are many varieties of weeds, as you can see in the photo - fresh from pickers (little old ladies) who scour the mountains in search of the freshest nah moole. I wasn't joking either. Little old ladies in South Korea are built to last. Countless times I've watched one of them lug card board and bottles up and down the road as I scarfed down a mouthful of wonderful tasting weed moole....I meant moole weed! Mooleweed! Nah weed moole! Nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, moo, moo, moo, oo-oole!

You should send me those pictures of us at grampy and grammy's.
Given your new link at the top, that will warrant a response tonight.
You take yours down and I will take mine down. These blogs are not political blogs. They are family blogs.
