KEEPING MYSELF OCCUPIED
Thursday, March 12, 2009 - posted by Hogers at 1:04 AM4 Comments
I've been on maternity leave for 2 weeks now. No Baby yet, so what have I been doing? Eating...and thinking about what to eat next. haha, nothing's changed right? I've been complaining to Eugene that I was bored out of mind sitting at home. I've ran out of things to do since I've already read 6 baby books sitting on the shelf, washed all her clothes and sheets and toys, created her sleeping/feeding chart, etc. I do run one errand a day whether it's going to pick up a merchandise from Target or Babies r Us or going to the grocery store, and I do household chores like laundry and dusting but these things aren't enough to keep me ocupied the entire day.
So I've spent the rest of my time visiting my favorite eateries like Gil-Mok, King Taco, Orochon, Cobras & Matadors, etc. I figured I probably won't have time to do this once the Baby arrives... One place I definitely want to visit (maybe tomorrow) is the Kogi taco truck. Have you guys heard of it? It's a taco truck featuring Korean bbq tacos that travels to scheduled areas all over L.A., Westside and Downtown areas. Friday night- it's scheduled to be stationed in the Melrose District. Come by if you want to join me.
I'm also posting an Argentine chimichurri recipe (Recipe created by my friend and Argentine grill master, Daniel). Spread it over unmarinated shortribs and tri-tip or serve with sausages.
