Our first shopping trip was on our first day here in Korea. We were up VERY early in the morning and luckily ran into another new KIS family. That afternoon we navigated the bus and subway system to find one of the big grocery stores, Emart. An Emart is a lot like a Fred Meyer back home. It has a big grocery section as well as electronics, housewares, toys, clothes, you name it. Needless to say our first trip was a bit chaotic. I had no idea what to get, where to find it, and in a lot of cases what was even in the package!
Pictures are very helpful! I grabbed this package of pancake mix and hoped for the best.
We had a chance to make pancakes a few days later and it turns out they were pretty good. They have more of a Swedish pancake consistency and the syrup is Aunt Jemima style but Fin liked them!
Can't remember Fin turning down pancakes. EMart would be a trip in itself I'm supposing. So much to learn. Calls for that patience genie to drop by. Thanks for these posts Erin. Let's have a picture of your classroom.
