Something that interested me this week

My baby turned 100 days old today!! We had a "Baek-il" party with family and friends and it was so fun. In case you didn't know, in Korean culture, the 100th day is a big deal. Back in "the olden days" when infant survival rates were low and childhood diseases were high, babies were celebrated and prayed over when they made it to their 100th day. Now, with modern medicine and all that, it's more traditional than anything, and we had a great time having her dressed up in a traditional hanbok and surrounding her with rice cakes!

Also I saw the Barbie movie and it was sublime, highly recommend.
