Speaking of fresh vegetables at the Korean market, I needed a couple of pounds of okra to make chicken gumbo for Nick's last family meal before going off to college, and there were none to be had at Safeway or Giant, nor even the nearest Chinese market (well, the Chinese market had a plastic wrapped small pack of bruised okra for $2.49/lb) but Han Au Reum had a big bin of lovely okra at 99 cents a pound, select it yourself. I was politely "fighting" for the best ones against a Chinese lady and a lady in a sari being egged on by her husband in a language I couldn't understand. Once again, being tall and willing to lean in gave me access to the okra at the back/top of the bin. The wonders of the global economy. Getting along is better in the long run, is my opinion. Ice cream machine seems to be slowing down, later.
