adelheid_pI spent the afternoon with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mina_kat9 and simbel_myne and friend. We ate lunch at Panera and then went to the the International Gem and Bead Show at the Pittsburgh Expo Mart. I have to say that I did not spend all the cash in my possession and did not use plastic at all. This time. I think I bought an amazing amount of semi-precious beads for what I spent. Now I just have to figure out what I'm doing with them.
After we parted ways, I did a small amount of grocery shopping and then went home and made myself some Bibimbap. Last night I made some bean sprout (kong) namul, spinach (sigumchi) namul, and stir fried julienned carrots. I already had kim chee and some leftover cooked short grain brown rice. Tonight I bought some ribeye steak and marinated it in bulgogi sauce for about half an hour and then cooked it in a cast iron skillet. I heated the rice in a bowl and then put some of the various vegetables on top the rice along with kim chee and the beef. I topped that with a fried egg (over easy). To spice it up I had purchased gochujang at a Korean grocery called Seoul Mart and I thinned with a bit of water and some rice vinegar. For dessert I had Mixed Fancy Berries (just raspberries, blueberries and blackberries) purchased at Trader Joe's topped with whipped cream.dergeis had the remaining half of a pepperoni and cheese explosion stromboli from last night's dinner (reheated in the oven).
