homemade bibimbap

In the span of a couple of weeks, my life has dramatically changed. My health has soared to new heights which I had almost begun to think was impossible. I feel like each day I make a gain. As things continue to change, I will have more to say on the matter. But for right now, praise the Lord that we have hit on the medicine that is going to carry me into winter in the best possible health.
Last week I worked more than I have since August. One fun thing I did at the church was to set up harvest decor in the narthex, sanctuary and do a new chalk drawing on the Cafe sign.

 For dinner tonight, I had a huge craving to make Korean bibimbap. So Kelsey and I headed to World Market to seek out the one ingredient I didn't have which is most necessary for bibimbap: gochujang. Gochujang is like a spicy chile paste, and it is delish. I mixed it with some honey and sesame seed oil and folded it into my rice. In another pan, I sautéed shredded carrots and baby spinach in sesame seed oil and then added ground beef that Kelsey had pre-cooked. You fold this into the rice as well and fry up an egg sunny side up so that it is still runny and eat this over the rice. You can add in other things, like I added onion flakes and some cheese, but you could also add mushrooms or whatever veg or kimchi or anything you have laying around. I just think it is so easy, and I love the flavoring.
Tomorrow I'm looking forward to sprucing up the house a bit and getting my ideas more clearly developed for our upcoming Advent Labyrinth. I've gotten quite a bit figured out today, but I hope to have all the details hashed out tomorrow. In the evening, I'm going to an online 'training' of sorts for IF leaders called IF:Visioncast, and I'm pretty pumped about that. We are hosting our next Table dinner on Sunday, so I also want to figure out how I'm setting the table and exactly what the menu will be, as well. PLUS. I scheduled a phone date with Aunt Jane. Should be a good Tuesday. :)
