Josiah gets a new pair of glasses
Gotta love this kid and his unending supply of cuteness. Allison’s mom Victoria picked up some fun little gifts for the boys when we visited a hobby shop in Dallas last weekend (for pinewood derby car weights).

Emmett is TEN
I picked Emmett up from his half-day at school and we drove over to San Soo Gab San for a special father-son lunch. Emmett chose Korean BBQ because he has been studying taekwondo and his instructor is from Korea.
It was a great lunch, as expected. He tried almost every dish that came to our table, except for the spicy things. I chose beef and he suggested we also grill baby octopus....

My method of cooking is fairly improvisational, so if you follow this you’ll want to taste and follow your gut along the way. I hope you try this and enjoy!
Ingredients:
2lbs collard greens, cleaned with...
