Do I like candy because it's brightly colored, or do I like bright colors because they remind me of candy? Something to ponder today.

I was wondering what had happened to all the snacks, then someone gave me a donut.

Woke up this morning to white stuff covering the ground. It looks suspiciously like snow...

No recent tweets from Jordan... perhaps he is running away from technology.
@Doug: You'd be surprised, but there is actually a decent amount of dirt that accumulates here. The fact that the floors are wood instead of carpet undoubtedly adds to the impression.
@Erica: Merry Christmas to you too.
@Celeste: Always happy to make you happy, Celeste :). I miss you (and all our Bethel friends) a great deal. Happy Christmas.
@Jed: Yes, Orangepants' name is Orangepants. You may have noticed that his pants are actually white right now, which we can't help: sometimes he changes pants.
Your apartment is so cute! I want to put up a Christmas tree too. I think we are going to put up our Christmas decorations and lights this weekend. I woke up to a bit of snow this morning!! Winter is here. Love you!
Nice Christmas tree, and fun to see Sweet Home decorated for Christmas.
So, Jordan, you have taken up the Souter "manly" custom of vacuuming (your mother says it's also a Furry trait)? Did you say every day? After living in Egypt, how do you find enough of anything there to vacuum that often? :-)
It must be a really amazing experience teaching in Korea. I read the other post about Star Wars and I laughed with your student's sheet...at least she was honest! (I wish my students were that honest). I teached spanish & tourism in London, I had a great time but yours is better! I couldn't have pets in my apartment :(
I like your blog very much,keep wrtiting please:)

Obviously, Marisa, you are becoming very popular with the students. Is the student who loves you a boy or a girl?
Is Jordan also charming his students?
When you talk about "the pearls" your students write and that their use of English is like "magical poetry" - you sound like a teacher - you've found the "soul" of teaching.
The question about "Croacia" was a joke, because I made a typo in the film, but Marisa's dad pointed out that some people do in fact spell Croatia that way; namely Europeans.
I love the colors in that picture. :)
I have a package for you, for your birthday, from PNG. I'm not used to being able to send packages, but will it get to Korea if I mail it?
I eat about four cloves of raw garlic a day with my meat. Im obsessed and stinky. I feel like I couldnt get away with eating raw garlic daily in the States.
That looks really lovely. How much does something like that cost? How did you get there? You took your food with you, I presume (other than the ice cream & beer)?
A question: you are camping in doors? Why called "camping"? (And with who?)
A comment: you should really use your screen time to write a book. You are a good writer. Your life itself makes a great series of childrens' books. :-)
If a picture is worth a thousand words then this must be worth a ga-million.
Aww!! That is very cute! I miss you!
that is a great photo, sure beats carrying them. and they're probably having a blast as well.

Thanks all, for taking the time to comment.
Did you say the fish's name is "Orangepants"?
Those stockings are kickin', and you're other room has awesome walls.
Hi, you two! I don't check in on your blog very often, but this most recent video is a treat. Thanks for sharing. Happy Christmas and I love you both.

You look like you're having such a good time in SK! Very cute pictures and outfits :)
It is $60 per cabin, which is pretty reasonable when you split the cost. And yes, we took our own food.
I'm just having fun with the formating -how cool is this you tech savvy youngin's! The "camping" or cabining looked like a lot of fun.

I guess the answer to your question is see my newest post.

It's so green and lush! I miss that. And the flowers are gorgeous. Your bright pink coat fits right in. Looks like you had a great time.
