Today, after church, I got a little taste of the United States.
A group of us went on base to have lunch at a family's house (of 7, with the 8th child on the way). We ended up staying all day playing games. I also got to eat REAL chocolate chip cookies.
I didn't realize how much I missed grass, until I saw some today and walked through it with my bare feet. It was weird knowing that I stepped on US soil, even though it is in Seoul.
They asked if there was anything any of us wanted. I had been thinking about spaghetti squash the other day and how I didn't see any squash here. So one of them who had to go to the store on base bought me one.
On my way home, a Korean woman who spoke English asked me what I had. She told me I needed to try Korean squash and took me into the store. I ended up buying one. Though, I think it is just zucchini, but she also shared how to cook it.
It was a moment I chose to seize and both she and I were blessed by it.
