People: Nice ajummas...

Walked around the offices on-site first thing, and did my daily ritual of "good morning"s to everyone I recognize.

On my quest, one of the middle-aged Korean aunties (ajumma ~ 아줌마), uses the wee "come-here" Korean sign language on me. And so I strolled over, expecting nothing less than a pinch on the cheek, and the teases I always get about not being married...

Yes, I cop that a lot from the ajummas on site. :">

Anyway, it was a pleasant surprise as she drags me into their little resting room, whips out a big paper bag, and starts stuffing it with fruits she's got laid out on the shelf... Whoa!

Good start to the morning, and I just HAD TO blog about it...

The persimmons are might fine this time of the year...I'm eating one as I type this.

By the way, I like the computer screen's picture in the photo...I know it's not an exact replica of the scene in that room, but it's kind of like when you hold a mirror up to a mirror.

Trippy.
