Korean Study Habits

 I have this written down on my white board for some time now. It's a reminder for me to study Korean and keep progressing. I have some ideas and goals for July, and it included study Korean every day.

Unfortunately, I haven't made that happen. Life happens, and also getting sick makes it hard to stay up with these plans. I know that putting too much pressure and time doesn't work for me. Thats why I wrote for 30 mins. I think if its more than that then you can start to lose focus and get brain tired. 

I also enjoy more so studying in the later part of the day, in the evening. That's my favorite part of the day and usually feel that I have more focus and energy. It's a time of day I look forward to as well.

I will attempt to keep updated in my Korean language learning journey!

Challah Bread

It was a fun process to make the bread. But I also didn't realize the amount of time it takes to do it all- the mixing, the rising, the kneading, the braiding and the baking. But it was worth it in the end! And the people liked it and enjoyed it. And what I had of it today and this morning with breakfast was great, especially with jam. 

It makes me want to get back into baking again, or even try out new recipes or ones from the past (like this one), that I haven't made in a while. 

Here's the recipe I used.

Bon Appetit!
