Sarah and Owen's Wedding May 2, 2015

It was a perfect late afternoon in early May for a wedding.  The air was warm and the blue sky, clear.   Many of my friends (fellow teachers) and I gathered together to witness the marriage of our dear friend  Sarah to Owen.  Sarah worked for several years at our elementary school. First as one of our aides, then later, after she received her teaching credential,  as a substitute teacher.  We all love Sarah so much and were thrilled to be at her wedding to celebrate this joyful occasion.  Here are some photos of this happy day.

The Picket Fence

There's a cute little shop I recently discovered called "The Picket Fence".   It's located on Norse Way in Long Beach just off Carson street by Long Beach City College.


They feature cute vintage items, jewelry, garden and home decor gifts.

Seoulmate in Long Beach

I often have wondered about  this funny, pink hole in the wall eatery that I drive by frequently. The name of this place is  "Seoulmate".

   One day, when my cousin Nancy was visiting,  we decided to investigate and have lunch there.   The food is Korean fusion.




 You order at the window and either take your food to go or eat in a tiny patio on the side of the order window.  Since we arrived a little before the noon hour we found the patio empty and easily got a table.  Fifteen minutes later the tables were filled.

 Nancy enjoyed her spicy pork sandwich



 I ordered "The Old Boy Burrito" filled with spicy Korean Bulgogi beef, kim chee, spicy sauce and cilantro. It was huge and yummy.


 Parking for this little place is at a premium.  We liked our food and found it very much like the menu found at  "Food trucks featuring  Korean fusion menus."  It was well worth a return visit.

After lunch we caught a movie and then came home to play a game of "Mexican Train"



 Beginner's luck or skill not sure which but my cousin ran away with this game.

No matter.  

We had a really fun day together!
