Ahhh...Atlanta. Hopefully it's where I will be living (or at least close-by) after I go job hunting this summer. While I was there picking up my mother's dog, I decided to go to the Farmer's Market and get some shopping done. I loaded up on some Pocky sticks, marshmallow flan, Ramune, and all sorts of little kimchees. Today's bento was super easy as I just loaded up the rice and filled the side containers with seasoned seaweed, anchovies, and stirfried peppers. Yum. Add a melon Ramune (which my students LOVED watching me open) and a multi-fruit Pocky stick and you have a meal fit for royalty. Of course, there are some things I just can't bring to school...the spicy chicken feet stirfry I had for dinner tonight, for example. But for the most part, everyone is polite and curious. Coming from a small Southern town, I am about as exotic as some of these kids will ever see. Which is soooo sad.
