Houston Grocery Run


Sometimes, when I make a Houston run for Korean groceries I have to do little things, such as, take photos of items in my fridge. I knew that me and Franzi would have to buy a soup stock in order to make my mom's bean sprout soup. I just didn't know which one we'd have to buy. The regular "soup stock" or the "beef soup stock."

Okay, step one: take photo of said item. Step two: when searching for said item in Korean grocery store try to dial up mom. Only one bar appears on the celly. *sigh* Step three: step outside and redial mom and ask if we need the regular soup stock or the beef one. Mom confirms that we'll need the Dashida beef soup stock. I thank myself for idiot proofing my shopping list with photo because mom says, "it's the one with the picture of beef on it." Uh...even the regular soup stock bag has a picture of beef on it.

Are these the same cause, yeah, they both look like beef flavor to me? I need to make a central market run to Houston soon and maybe a Greek food outing as well. Nacogdoches is truly my home now, but sometimes I get pangs for Houston--hunger pangs that is.

yes...i'm right there with you on the hunger pangs. nac definitely needs some ethnic foods amongst the piney woods.
