New foods and weekends

I've been trying new foods galore.  I'm proud of myself because I usually don't try new foods alone.  Ever since I arrived, it's been a step at a time.  Who knows what I will try next.  I've also been eating foods that I know and like.  I've been craving cereal.  I bought some Special K cereal.  Unfortunately, for my family back in MN, I haven't been able to find GM cereals.  I found Post and Kellog's cereals.  I tried Korean milk.  I hear it's a little different from US milk.  I tried 매일매일 우유  (Maeil maeil milk) and 서울우유 (Seoul Milk) both taste the same, but to me, they taste sweet.  I don't know if it's me or the milk.  I think it tastes sweet.  I have to try Korean soy milk still.  The milk is good, but I stopped drinking it alone.

Recently, I was feeling kind of homesick and wanted something sweet.  I bought instant vanilla latte cappuccino from Daiso (the Korean version of the dollar store with extremely cute items).  I heated milk up first and added the mix.  I added dark chocolate (it was free when I helped clean out an apartment, so I won't complain and dark chocolate also tastes sweet to me) to my cappuccino.  I let the chocolate melt and I mixed it.  Some how I got chocolate chunks, but it tasted delicious.  I will wait until next month to have it again.


I bought cheetos.  I used to LOVE the original kind, but as I got older, I lost my taste for them.  These were on sale and I'm not picky.  After I paid and went home, I saw "매콤한맛."  All I could and can do is eat them or save them.  I tried them and they are not as spicy as I thought they would be.  They are more strong and garlic flavored (Koreans love their garlic too).  

Lately, I've been watching Korean movies because I created a list and also from the flight to Korea, I got to watch many Korean movies.  I have to thank youtube and the youtube creators because that's where I watch most of my movies.  If you know me, you know I enjoy foreign films.  I have to get going and find a new foreign film to watch this weekend.
