Korean delegation and our family/friends weekend brunch

Last week I gave a presentation to a visiting delegation from Korea (South) on the work we do in plant quarantine. They were quite happy with the content and also asked many many many questions. It was somewhat akin to a horrible interview held in a language other than one of your choosing.

I guess they were pleased since they offered (and I took it!) a present. It is a really nice travel manicure and hygeine set. Nice case! I'm pretty pleased.

We went to brunch at a new restaraunt near home on the weekend. It has great food, a nice atmosphere and friends of ours know the owners! They even has story reading that the kids tried (relatively successfully) to listen to. Check out The Branch!
