When I was no longer legally obligated to make sure minor children were well cared for and fed on a daily basis, I stopped cooking unless I really wanted to. (which is rarely because peanut butter toast is my favorite) And lets be honest, my kids learned how to cook pretty young out of self defense.
Peanut butter toast is MY favorite! I ate it every day for breakfast when I was a kid and would now if my daughter wasn’t allergic! I love good gourmet food as much as the next person, but not if I have to cook it!
It’s all good, once you find out, you just live with it. It doesn’t really affect her daily life. She just packs a lunch and eats her own food—we are raising a discriminating eater though-with her dad cooking and all, she would rather eat at home than anywhere else!
It’s not about the brand but about the way you cook it, so says my husband. (So this was a cheap Nissin Top Ramen.) We use two boiling stages, one for the noodles (and you dump that water) and then one after you get the noodles in the bowel. You don’t want to overcook the noodles, so you cook them just al dente in the first boiling stage and then they get cooked more in the bowl with new boiling water with the rest of the veggies and whatever left over meat I found in the fridge (which was carmelized pork tonight—Jackpot!). Also, I put the sauce packet directly in the bowl as well and my kids have to mix it all together before they eat it. I forgot to put an egg in the first boiling stage to poach it, but you could do that too. And add kimchi! Always add kimchi.
I think you were the beanie I had discussions with about pho right? Your husband used to work in a pho restaurant or had some friends who used to work/run one or something. Is he a chef by trade?
No, he never worked there, just ate there and thought the pho was phenomenal, so went and talked to the chef and ended up touring the kitchen and learning how to make it. He does make the best pho in town—it’s famous and people we’ve never met are vying to get invites to eat it! We’re habong a pho party tomorrow night actually! No one misses when they’re invited for pho 🍲!!!
It makes me think I’m on the right ship here, but again, it’s not about the romance. They’re talking about both guys in this scene, and how one has the balls to interrupt the moment and the other to seize it. Yes, and I think the ensamble is amazing job here and I love them too.
I think it was a small step in the direction of maturity. It wasn’t “I like her, so I’ma get her” it was just a statement of fact. (I kind of get into it in my post or one of my replies on my wall.)
When you completely forget that the first part of this episode was all about the horrors of human trafficking, and can only focus on the bubbles…and Shin Dong Wook. #notaromancebuthe’smakingmeforget #LIVEep8
Sooooo pretty. I’m glad I’m watching it. It’s a tough drama, so I’m glad the writing and directing allows these moments for the viewer to breathe and enjoy themselves.
I’m now an islander. Dr. Ye is like an uncle to Bo-young, building her self-confidence, thinking she’s “cute,” teaching her, being her mentor. Poor Bo-young. She’ll be crushed by her crush. #POEM
*supports this initiative* good think @ally-le!
As a doctor, you are well placed to “heal” to those on the ship that goes down. Whereas I, as a lawyer, am well placed to file for damages! *evil laugh* MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
(..i want to take back my lame joke, but i am leaving it there)
This scene came in ep 4, during Jin-ah’s work trip which Joon-hee accompanied her as to protect her from her inappropriate boss. It’s subtle, but how intimate this scene is with the lighting and lone camera shot with no one behind it is genius and exactly what this drama is about. #PRETTYNOONA
Student Review:
Excellent course! The teacher and student guide were very friendly and approachable, the course was fun and I must say I gained more than I thought I would. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn the fundamentals of the subject. ^^
When your suspicions that you’re on the wrong ship are basically confirmed…Poor Min-ho, don’t be sad, I think you’re the end game. #POEM #StillontheYe-liner #Showcantletthispuppybebrokenx10episodes
Me too. Even though I want my ship to sail, I’m getting deja vu from the countless dramas I’ve watched or it’s just my gut feeling. I guess I can understand how the reply fans must’ve felt who were on the wrong ship. Still I won’t abandon my ship. I’m faithful LOL!
HAHAHA yup – it really is too early. Countless dramas tell me that its too early. Thus MinHo must be endgame. But I’m on the Ye Liner. Faithful, I shall remain.
Sounds good—and this was a staple for my kids while in Italy. I’ve never seen this in the US, but Italy, they have French fries on pizza, and it’s pretty good! Yes, a deserted island of neutral beanies sounds great. Not invested too much in the shipping anyway, more invested in catching Dr. Ye smiling.
I don’t abandon my ship either, unless he proves to be unworthy.
Min ho can improve to the n-limit, but unless Dr. Ye turns into the dark side, I will always root for him first 😓
So, you have to get pretty sophisticated VPN software which isn’t free, and I would need a subscription, and I’m still deciding which one I want. I’m still “researching” it as we speak, but using my free VPN right now just to watch it on another site. We need a good one anyway with how much sensitive information we send with our work, so I’m really doing it for that (at least that’s how I’m justifying why I’m spending so much time on it).
PRETTY NOONA finally sold me on it in Ep 3. Hubby and I are on the same page again on drama-watching, finally. Now, I really need to drop one…LIVE, SWITCH, or POEM?
I’ve only ever watched one live drama at a time, except when I watched RDTK and GOBLIN, but those were really not concurrently airing like these are. I’m behind on POEM and LIVE, and don’t know when I’ll be able to catch up with them!
LIVE subs take awhile to come out. And from my stalking of the live discussion, you are one episode away from catching up. You stopped at episode 7? The last I checked, 9&10 subs are still not out…something to consider. 🤔🤔
Honestly, I don’t think I could give up Live right now either. I’m too invested in the characters. The music is stellar, the story superb. There was just that editing error in ep 7 that and a couple minor issues I had about the hospital scenes. But Shin Dong Wook covers a multitude of sins.
Yes! I noticed that wound issue. I thought I had missed a scene. Then the mommy in me was thinking germs! Infection! Ahh! And Shin Dong Wook…so handsome! I get to see more of his face than in Lookout.
I’m currently watching three live dramas as well and would like to add Poem coz of the love here on DB. Not sure how I can do that…but I am caught up on my live shows at the moment, so I’ll try squeeze it in. All the love for drama watching!!
I guess I haven’t dropped anything yet. I actually think live is different than anything I’ve seen in a kdrama. Reminds me of Hill Street Blues, and
the music is great. Better than average?
Second episode is where it really starts. I feel that first episode was just a prologue, so you know where these people come from, and Shin Dong Wook appears in the 2nd ep as well, and admittedly, he’s the only reason I started this drama. *fans self*
It’s stupid but I don’t like the female lead. I’m not sure why I don’t like her. I didn’t like her in I Need Romance, she annoyed me in Train to Busan and she’s annoying me here too. I wish I could put my finger on why.
It was PRETTY NOONA that had the iphones! I knew I just saw them somewhere! #prettynoonaep1rewatch
#officiallywatchingtoomanydramas
#sowhatphonesareinPOEM?
This show has my type of humor—tongue and cheek, smart and witty. Like this scene, which is badass, until you see the dog strutting in, then it’s hilarious. Show knows what it is, and I love that.
Switch and Live are two currently-airing dramas that I reaaaaally wish I had the time to check out. There are too many good shows on now!!! And I still need to start Pretty Noona!
I’m really enjoying SWITCH, probably more than anything else I’m watching right now. Just so that ship isn’t left out…Joon Soo? Or Do Chan? Hard choice—I think I’d take both—Han Ye Ri agrees.
Oh absolytely So Do Chan! That little conman smile/smirk does it for me every time. And I love that from the pictures I can tell which one is which – even when he wears the glasses.
And yes, Hyeri is much more fun when she’s around SDC
Oh, yay, we’re on the same ship again! ^^
I know he’s up to no good every time I see that smirk. Lol. I watched the pilot episode without reading the sypnosis but I knew right away (before it’s revealed) that the JGS who’s being chased by the TOD was not the same JGS who’s on the island casino. Good acting by JGS.
And yes, Do Chan would be who would probably win this, but you can’t ignore the past between a sunbae and his hoobae. I also like how JGS is portraying both characters, but especially Do Chan. I mean, he IS Do Chan.
What happened to Live? I thought that was your currently airing love? I so need to catch up on that drama. Sooo far behind. I can’t help it though. My Ajusshi takes the spot of “way too long, and heavy to watch” drama on my currently watching list.
It’s too hard! *ducks* I kind of just want to resume watching when I can have some assurance, but then again… I don’t want to miss the week-by-week discoveries and discussions! Why must there be so many decisions?
Me too! All the delight for the four episodes all accumulated to the last 5 minutes of episode 4 and turned it into one long high-pitched squeeeee for me.l The rest is Ye-line history.
Join us in Ye Line!
Ye Line all the way~!
We’ll protect you from abusing superiors, take care of your needs and most importantly, we’ll appreciate you as you are.
With all the discussion of POEM, I had a PPL question for you all. This is the first show that I’ve noticed the absence of SAMSUNG phones. I think all the ring tones and the phone that Bo-young uses is supposed to be an iPhone. Can anyone corroborate this. I took a screenshot of her phone, but it’s not an iPhone, to my eye anyway. Does Apple sponsor this show? Thanks!
The iPhoneX has a ‘cutout’ around the speaker and camera, instead of a strip all through the top part, and no curve on the edge.
Could be an LG or other Android phone brand.
When you check your email and find out you\’re leading a faculty meeting when you thought you were just an attendee. But then you know you\’ve got this and wing it anyway. via GIPHY
What I like about LIVE is that interspersed between the crime and violence, are these moments. Maybe I’ll get my love story after all and some humor too. I’ve found myself laughing out loud unexpectedly.

Pretty Noona basically took over my drama life lol.
I do watch Park Bo-gum and Yoona on Sundays and that’s about it.
Once they leave I’m done.

LIVE subs take awhile to come out. And from my stalking of the live discussion, you are one episode away from catching up. You stopped at episode 7? The last I checked, 9&10 subs are still not out…something to consider. 🤔🤔

Honestly, I don’t think I could give up Live right now either. I’m too invested in the characters. The music is stellar, the story superb. There was just that editing error in ep 7 that and a couple minor issues I had about the hospital scenes. But Shin Dong Wook covers a multitude of sins.

Yes! I noticed that wound issue. I thought I had missed a scene. Then the mommy in me was thinking germs! Infection! Ahh! And Shin Dong Wook…so handsome! I get to see more of his face than in Lookout.
I’m currently watching three live dramas as well and would like to add Poem coz of the love here on DB. Not sure how I can do that…but I am caught up on my live shows at the moment, so I’ll try squeeze it in. All the love for drama watching!!

Live. Not that there’s anything wrong with it but it’s kind of like a million other shows.
Ally
April 17, 2018 at 2:20 PM
I guess I haven’t dropped anything yet. I actually think live is different than anything I’ve seen in a kdrama. Reminds me of Hill Street Blues, and
the music is great. Better than average?

Admittedly I only watched the first episode. I just wasn’t that interested. But I’m sure I’ll watch a few more at some stage.
Ally
April 17, 2018 at 3:09 PM
Second episode is where it really starts. I feel that first episode was just a prologue, so you know where these people come from, and Shin Dong Wook appears in the 2nd ep as well, and admittedly, he’s the only reason I started this drama. *fans self*

It’s stupid but I don’t like the female lead. I’m not sure why I don’t like her. I didn’t like her in I Need Romance, she annoyed me in Train to Busan and she’s annoying me here too. I wish I could put my finger on why.
Ally
April 17, 2018 at 3:27 PM
Oh, really? 🤔 I didn’t even know she was in Train to Busan. I saw that a while ago though. I liked her in that, was she the pregnant lady?
ChinguMode
April 17, 2018 at 4:15 PM
@ally-le
Yeah, she was the pregnant woman married to Ma Dong-seok. I wish I could quantify why I don’t like her. I just don’t.

Are you getting more into it or the rewatch was just for the iPhone thing?

Rewatched with hubby, who refused to watch it raw//google subs. Episode 2 tonight. POEM is on hold.
Ally
April 8, 2018 at 9:03 PM
This show has my type of humor—tongue and cheek, smart and witty. Like this scene, which is badass, until you see the dog strutting in, then it’s hilarious. Show knows what it is, and I love that.
mindy
April 8, 2018 at 9:23 PM
Switch and Live are two currently-airing dramas that I reaaaaally wish I had the time to check out. There are too many good shows on now!!! And I still need to start Pretty Noona!
Ally
April 8, 2018 at 9:32 PM
Both LIVE and SWITCH are really my favorites right now. I’ll have to show some LIVE love in the coming days.

April 8, 2018 at 11:34 PM
That cut to the strutting dog made me laugh so much. I wasn’t even sure it was intentionally funny but then I realised that clearly it was.
Ally
April 8, 2018 at 8:50 PM
I’m really enjoying SWITCH, probably more than anything else I’m watching right now. Just so that ship isn’t left out…Joon Soo? Or Do Chan? Hard choice—I think I’d take both—Han Ye Ri agrees.
Giegie
April 8, 2018 at 11:18 PM
So Do Chan FTW! He’s funny & he & Hyeri complement each other. ^^
Cloggie
April 8, 2018 at 11:37 PM
Oh absolytely So Do Chan! That little conman smile/smirk does it for me every time. And I love that from the pictures I can tell which one is which – even when he wears the glasses.
And yes, Hyeri is much more fun when she’s around SDC
Giegie
April 9, 2018 at 1:05 AM
Oh, yay, we’re on the same ship again! ^^
I know he’s up to no good every time I see that smirk. Lol. I watched the pilot episode without reading the sypnosis but I knew right away (before it’s revealed) that the JGS who’s being chased by the TOD was not the same JGS who’s on the island casino. Good acting by JGS.
And she looks comfortable around SDC.
Ally
April 9, 2018 at 4:56 AM
And yes, Do Chan would be who would probably win this, but you can’t ignore the past between a sunbae and his hoobae. I also like how JGS is portraying both characters, but especially Do Chan. I mean, he IS Do Chan.

What happened to Live? I thought that was your currently airing love? I so need to catch up on that drama. Sooo far behind. I can’t help it though. My Ajusshi takes the spot of “way too long, and heavy to watch” drama on my currently watching list.
Ally
April 9, 2018 at 4:51 AM
Live is still there! And I still really enjoy it! I’ve been posting on our thread, where have you been???? The struggle of keeping up is real though!

Sry. 😳 I feel badly for roping you in and not following through. Ok. Ok. I’ll try to catch up this weekend.

No problem! Don’t stress about it. I’m a subbed episode behind as well. And POEM is tonight.
Ally

Just some screen shots I also took of this show. Episode 4 was the one that sealed the deal. Dr. Ye? Min-Ho? Dr. Ye? Min-Ho? #POEM

I’m definitely on one ship right now, but I could be persuaded to jump ships by the end of this!

It’s too hard! *ducks* I kind of just want to resume watching when I can have some assurance, but then again… I don’t want to miss the week-by-week discoveries and discussions! Why must there be so many decisions?

That last line made me faulter as well, but then there was Dr. Ye’s elusive smile! Yep, back on that ocean liner.

Firmly on the Ye Line, but Minho earned some major points with that last statement.

With all the discussion of POEM, I had a PPL question for you all. This is the first show that I’ve noticed the absence of SAMSUNG phones. I think all the ring tones and the phone that Bo-young uses is supposed to be an iPhone. Can anyone corroborate this. I took a screenshot of her phone, but it’s not an iPhone, to my eye anyway. Does Apple sponsor this show? Thanks!
mindy
April 8, 2018 at 6:34 PM
That’s interesting! I don’t know what phone that is, but the Just Between Lovers also had iPhones!

Oh! I didn’t read this comment properly before answering. That is interesting. I haven’t seen iphone in dramas for a few years.

Looks like an iPhone to me! But please don’t take the word of a gal who had a flip phone til last year.

April 8, 2018 at 7:34 PM
The iPhoneX has a ‘cutout’ around the speaker and camera, instead of a strip all through the top part, and no curve on the edge.
Could be an LG or other Android phone brand.
Midnight
April 8, 2018 at 9:05 PM
It could be either Samsung S9+ or LG V30. You can probably find out which if you see the back camera.
Ally
April 8, 2018 at 9:11 PM
It has a rectangular camera in the middle of the phone lower than I’m accustomed to seeing the lens of a camera.

Could it be this?
Ally
April 8, 2018 at 9:25 PM
The camera is more horizontal.

April 8, 2018 at 9:32 PM
Hmm.. The LG camera is a doouble and rounded. So I guess I don’t know 😅

I remember Healer was sponsored by Apple. And anybody with money in dramas used to have an iphone until a few years ago. But not recently.

NO! I meant City Hunter! Not Healer. Sorry.

What I like about LIVE is that interspersed between the crime and violence, are these moments. Maybe I’ll get my love story after all and some humor too. I’ve found myself laughing out loud unexpectedly.
