To save trouble of going out for every meal, my mom and my sister-in-law brought homemade side dishes from home. Yum~
We made grilled pork and kimchi chigae for dinner at the resort condo we’re staying at. This can happen only in Korea!!
Korean style breakfast buffet. Love it!
We’re staying here for the next three days.
Today we’re heading to the Daecheon Beach, located in Chungcheongnam-do province, which is considered to be the best beach on the west coast. It’s also my mom’s hometown.
Rest stops in Korea have variety of noodle dishes. This was one of my favorite memories of road trips in Korea when I was a kid.
About 5 min. from my parents place is this park/strip mall where kids can run around the fountain and play with neighborhood kids. There’s also quite of few boutiques and good eateries as well. It’s so easy to walk out here with kids to have late night snacks and watch the kids play. This is what I missed the most about Korea… being so carefree and just being with my family. I’m home…
Andrew went back to the States tonight. We miss you so much… On the bright side, kids and I still have 3 weeks here and we’re looking forward to many more fun summer days!
I love visiting markets in Korea.
My favorite Korean dessert, ho-dduk! Fried dough that contains brown sugar. Delicious~
Wife, Mother, jewelry designer &
graphic designer /Creative Director, I am HaeWon Cadence Ryu. This is a glimpse into my life’s blessings, passion and inspiration.
This blog came to fruition after I began motherhood; I wanted to be able to capture every millestone of my two beautiful children - Chloe & Shane as they journey through their early years. Since the launch of my online jewelry site, cadencelee.com, I’ve come face-to-face with having to juggle multiple roles. As a result, I have decided to feature some of my designs and inspiration alongside postings of my precious family. For me, this is the perfect medium of work-life balance.
