The Scouts have two gas rings over which they have to cook their breakfasts and dinners.

Camping Day Three: Let them drink Tea
Diary: Sunday 12 July
It is a cold day and there was rain overnight, with more rain forecast.
A hot cup of tea makes for good start to the day…and it is time to make my own teabags.
Camping Day Two: Let them eat Eggy Bread
Diary: Saturday 11 July
One of the joys of camping is that the Scouts get to cook their own meals. This morning we had eggy bread, otherwise known in posh circles as French Toast.
The ingredients and method of cooking are very simple, perfect for the first breakfast at camp.
Camping Day One: Let them eat Cake
Diary: Friday 10 July
Gochugaru Girl is heading to the Isle of Wight with her Scout Group.
The trip is off to a good start with fair weather on the ferry crossing to the island.
Banana and Speculoos Cake – Part 1
Gochugaru Girl has a new tea to try this morning.
This makes for a very happy start to the day.
The World in a Suitcase
Gochugaru Girl and Mr Gochugaru are Guardians to Niece Number 1 and Niece Number 2.
We spend a lot of time on the airport run. However there are certain rewards…
Killerton House and Garden
Gochugaru Girl had a lovely weekend in Devon with lots of blue skies and clotted cream.
So would you rather be in Northern Italy?
The Shanghai Soup Dumpling Index
Gochugaru Girl is away for the weekend but before that, an update on the Shanghai Soup Dumpling Index first mentioned here in an article on Shanghai’s xiao long bao.
This extraordinary project has been 18 months in the making and will officially launch on April 16, 2015 at 8.30 PM, China time.
Jaedong Sundubu English Menu
This is a follow up to the post on Jaedong Sundubu in Seoul.
The menu is translated here, first in Korean, followed by its pronunciation and a short description. The prices are reasonable, reflect the portion size or ingredients, and are correct as of 03 March 2015. The idea is that if you don’t read Korean, you just bring this guide with you. (more…)
Jaedong Sundubu in Seoul
This is sort of a strange post but it emphasises why I dislike visiting a foreign country without being able to read and speak the local language. Anything using the Latin Alphabet (that is, ABC) I can cope with.
I know most countries will now have some signs in English. Internet-based translation tools are very helpful, as is sign language, smiling or sadly, in the case of very rich tourists, waving around lots of cash.
