Korean Chicken Wings

When you're adjusting back from an 8-hour time change, you can only adjust as quickly as the youngest member of the family. Zoe's up at 3am these days and well we...we have no choice. We can teach her to stay in bed until the sun comes up but well with all of us wide awake, it just seemed to make more sense to get up. What we do in that early hour doesn't make as much sense but it's been a tasty affair nonetheless.



Mike made bacon-maple-chocolate pancakes the first day at 3am. I was frying battered calamari at 4am the next. By the third day, Mike was whipping up a brilliant batch of Korean-style chicken wings at 5am.



The important thing to note is that we've been adjusting back slowly but surely one hour at a time and now we're almost completely back on track. And because of all the fresh ingredients we had in Wales, we've returned with renewed energy to cook more meals at home. This isn't terrible but it's not homemade. Especially after realizing how easy these wings were, Mike said he'd be trying another recipe. I told him I'd whip up a batch of the sweet daikon radish that typically accompanies Korean-style chicken wings. 

Looking forward to a weekend free of plans!

  2. Haha. I know what you mean by that. My family lives all the way in Pakistan where the time difference is 12 hours! And this is exactly what happens when we get back, except even when we're up we're too lazy to cook at that time. You guys are awesome. We should try that next time.
