Our new freezer arrived today (to accommodate the meat), and I got some good Father's Day loot (Some nice shirts "Because you have been looking a little ratty recently" (Chloe)) and we all went to Jong Ga for mung bean cakes (excellent), sea bass (very good, but not my favorite), spicy crab soup (also excellent) and kalbi. Afterwards, we burned off 20 of the 4000 calories by walking along Lake Merritt
Where Canadian Geese have totally overrun every bit of grass in the park. The Oakland parks should bring in some ferrets, I think. Either that or a crack team of Foie Gras professionals. Along the way I became unresponsive and glazed over when we came upon a Ferrari F430 Spider
She will be mine
