He worked/cooked for 2 hours. He said his wife does most of the cooking but he did a great job!
Here's a sample. Lots of vegetables & rice. They eat mostly pork but meat is not a main dish. Their meat is more got flavor. Very different from here! Pop said "where's the beef????" Ji even got us chopsticks & Gracie thought that was pretty cool.
Speaking of Gracie...
She is having the best time with him. She LOVES the fact that we take him to the train station every morning before school. (That means I have to sit in the back of the car with her and she eats that up) But she also likes to see the trains.
Ji works very hard all day long at SMU and gets back to our house after dark. He is very good at trains and buses. When Ji finally gets home Gracie is anxious to play games with him. She's taught him Candy land. Don't spill the beans, Don't Break the Ice, puzzles, & more.
We've learned so much from him about China's way of life and he is learning about our way of life. He thinks things are very cheap here and can't get over how many stores and how everything is so easy. WE are very spoiled here in America. What can we say? Ji really likes visiting with Kelly and they have a lot of common even though we are on opposites of the world. We talk a lot about education. He finds American schools very interesting and we want to know how they are all so smart. 70-80% of Chinese go to college. It's amazing.
Ji's wife and daughter (she'll be 3 in June) are going to come over here too while Ji finishes out his year long work contract. He wants to learn more and get things settled before they come. I can't wait to meet them! He said his wife likes to shop and watch drama shows on tv. I said we'd get along great!
On the weekends we'll both be off from work so he have lots to show him around here!
