Yesterday, I made my first Korean food ever. I made hoddeok. Hoddeok is a sweet, stuffed pancake. It's really good. Before you get excited, I should mention that I used a mix. However, the mix I used had instructions entirely in Korean. So, I had to use my awesome Hangul reading skills, a dictionary, and have a middle school girl translate the list of ingredients for me. (I found the girl shopping in the grocery store.)
Unfortunately, I didn't think to take pictures of my finished product so, I am using pics stolen from Google Images.
Enjoy!

Our Apartment - The Photo Tour
The Living Room
These pictures were taken when we first moved in. We now have a couch, a tv, etc.
That is an air conditioner in the corner.
The View from the Living Room
The Kitchen
We have two Kimchi Coolers and a UV Sterilizer
Looks like a cabinet...
but it's a condiment refrigerator!
Our Bedroom
View from Our Bedroom
Light Switch with Clock and Hot Water/Heat Control Panel in the Bedroom
(We have to turn on and off the hot water heater as we need hot water.)
The Guest Room
(It has two doors)
Hall Bathroom
Master Bathroom
It has a super high tech toilet.
This shower is really small and not enclosed (Koreans just let the shower drain into drains in the bathroom floor) so, we don't use it. It now has a clothes drying rack in it. Korean dryers take hours to dry anything. So, drying racks are very common.
One of two panic buttons in the apartment. The other one is in the living room.
I'll post more pics another time. There are some interesting things in this apartment that I've never really seen before.
