The container of kimchi Mrs. Jeong gave to me last winter ran out weeks ago!  Ack!  But I finally got some more from 할머니 Halmoni (Grandmother).  For certain, if you are Korean, you never have a meal without rice, and so it follows, you can't have rice without kimchi!  Yum!  I must be Korean, because I eat rice daily, always miss it at any meals where I don't have some, and always want more kimchi!!! Well, at least Jeong says I'm Korean! :-)  김치 주세요 Kimchi Jusayo!!! (Please give me kimchi!)
    Koreans make massive batches of kimchi once a year, using 200+ heads of cabbage.  The whole family is involved in this process (well, at least all the women.  (Hehe, Just like Thanksgiving in the States!) Then it's stored to continue fermentation and eaten all year! Yum!
