Visiting Seoul, Korea
I'm in Seoul this week for a short trip, so not much blogging since I'm running around with a packed schedule.
Definitely missed good Korean food since the Bay Area is mediocre for Korean cuisine. I hope I don't gain too much weight while I'm here :)

Back From The Sick Cribs
It's been several months since I missed more than two days of blogging. Now it's been 4 working days and almost a week, but I'm back. Hectic week of work, side ventures, our twins being sick, and our life in Silicon Valley :)
