Well, well… how long has it been? I think for many they have thought we have disappeared. We even wondered ourselves a bit. A few things have changed since our last posting, to say the least. I’ll stack a few of them here for whomever cares to read it. And…

We had snow yesterday. We had snow today. We had snow, I say. That is all. Love, Sumi

Our Life | December 22, 2010

We hope that everyone has had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I for one have so much to be thankful for this year. We had wonderful family thanksgiving at my In-Law’s. I hate saying In-Law’s. They are just Mom and Dad to me, but thinking that some of y’all may get a…

Top 12 reasons how I know that my Korean mother has visited me. 1-We have to make a new storage space in the house for all the extra food, enough for China. 2-We have to use our car as an extra refrigerator because we have kimchi that will last us…

It is with great pleasure that I get to post the following poem for all to read. It is not written by my hand, but by our oldest son David’s. David is an incredible writer with so much potential (I know all of us as parents tend to say that……

How many people does it take to change a light bulb? Three! Two to hold the blanket. One to screw in the light bulb. Love, Sumi

Lately, I’ve been feeling soooo responsible. I wasn’t able to take care of my family for a whole year because of the “Boo Boo” and the Chemo… Now that I am better, I have taken many tasks on hand. I am back helping with schooling with my boys. I am…

Talking about Christmas trees in Hawaii is a little early being that its November 8th today. But I was just watching Hawaii Five-O tonight, and it made me think of us getting our first Christmas tree in Hawaii. So how does Hawaii Five-O make someone think about Christmas trees. I’ll…

Do you remember “The Spatula?” You know, the iconic Spatula? If you need to be reminded, here is the link. By now you all should know how important “The Spatula” is to me. I even call it my friend. It goes everywhere I go in the kitchen.  Anyway…last week…somebody did…

I call to mind a different October last year. I remember the frailty. I remember the darkness. I remember the conclusion of my immortality. I witnessed myself fall and degenerate into a form of something that was never meant to be. Like a dried up Autumn leaf, which once possessed…

As I am writing this, I have a white growth attached to my hip. Her name is Nilla, our only daughter. She was a gift from D1. He flew all the way to Texas from Honolulu to get her. If you knew anything about pet laws in Hawaii, you know…

D1 and I had a knock down drag out fight the other day…Gotcha! Just jiving with ya. Ok, seriously, we had a little disagreement about a kitchen tool. To start off, I must inform you that there is one kitchen tool which I can not do without. It is my…

Okay, I just had to post this. I don’t like to get into religious talk… it just always seems to make people mad and argue. We don’t want that. But after you read this article that I have copied below (and I think you should), if you believe the Bible…

This is the last part of the Diamond Mine post. You will notice that from here on, all the pictures are in yellow-ish tone. This was done on purpose for the reasons that I felt like I was back in the time era of “Little House on the Prairie”. I…

So by now, if you are here, you are ready for some dirt. Be patient, I am going to take you to it slowly. I want all of you to get acquainted with the dirt first and then confront the dirt without fear because at the end of the day,…

The boys have been out of school for less than a month now. In the midst of all the figurings and plannings of what to do for the summer, D1 came out with a brilliant idea (I am being facetious here when I say brilliant) of visiting the only public…
