I don’t know how many of you have watched cnet reviews, but for those of you who are, I’m sure you’ve seen some audio gadget reviewed by James Kim. About 11 days ago his family and him went on a vacation for the weekend and decided to go trough a snowy road to enjoy the wilderness. Unfortunately their car got stuck in the middle of nowhere. Two days ago, his wife and his two kids were found along the car, but he was missing – gone to look for help after 8 days in the car with little food and water. Today his body was found…

Last night we went to Tai Show East – japanese restaurant right next to us. The environment was pretty nice and they have special sections with small room-like places to eat where you take your shoes off before you get in and you sit on the ground. Next time we will ask for one of these .
We ate several things and they were all good. Of course, our waitress had a heavy accent, but it was understandable. In the middle of the restaurant there is a huge coral aquarium, that was great to look at.

This weekend I worked a lot. Sat and Sun I was all day at work and only Sun morning I managed to fix some pancakes. My chef’s knife arrived on Fri. It is very light and extremely sharp. At first the handle looked too long, but later when I played with the knife a little it was alright. The blade has a perfect shape for the various cutting techniques. With the knife I got a magnetic bar to mount all my knives on the wall. It is very nice and it even has similar pattern, as the knife handle.

Here I would like to express my disappointment. I had a paper to write for my economics class discussing an economist, a school of economy or compare two of my choice. Because there is a presentation of the paper I thought that it will be interesting for everyone to write and present about the gift economy. Unfortunately, after the professor read the paper, he asked me to write about something else because this topic was too futuristic. And today I wrote about something completely different. Also today I was told that I should not present on my first work but only my second one… I wanted so much to talk about the free/open software economy…

Since I was little, I like to cook and recently I notice that I enjoy it even more now. Since Friday I am “in the zone”. That night I made beef tape soup(BG style), Sat and Sun I worked all day, Mon I made pasta with pork meat souse, Tue I made BG style pizza with lots of stuff on it (corn, mushrooms, peas, peppers, meat, egg, feta cheese, muenster cheese, and a ton of herbs), last night we made pork chops in hunters sauce ( bg style sauce ) from Ivan Zvezdev’s book.

That’s why I got a good chef’s knife. Global G-2 which wasn’t that expensive after using my gift certificate from amazon. It will come today or tomorrow.

One week ago was turkey day and everything was closed. Silvia & Emo invited us to have dinner at their place and we decided to go. The weather was nasty, but that didn’t stop us. We even made baklava the night before to bring over there. Ofcourse we ate turkey, but stuffed with rise and livers – BG style. It was very good. The night was pleasant and we left around 11:10- 11:20. We came back home at around 1:40. There are a few pics but I have not downloaded it from the camera.
