my new vampire oc Kokoro inspired by Daria Cohen's vampier series! Kokoro is a vampire of unknown origin who lives with a friendly werewolf couple out in the Mojave Desert.
They don't remember much of their past only wandering around the desert barefoot wearing nothing but an old nightgown covered in dirt grim and dried blood unaware of who they are or where they came from. Until he was found by a friendly werewolf couple who own a night BBQ bar took him in/adopted him as their own.
He can be so quiet that it sometimes spooks people when he announces his presence next to them.
Their bar The Dirty Pig BBQ Pit is known for their famous BBQ rips, steaks and pulled pork with their 'secret sauce' that everyone loves to enjoy with good food, drinks and entertainment 🎸🎶🍻🍺🥃🍹🥩🍗🍖🐂🐷 Kokoro really loves the spare ribs with curly fries with a root beer and loves making peach cobbler with Mama Yaretzi and learning how to cut and marinade a pig.
Everyone, I'm home. I know it sounds so cliche, but the moment I got off the plane in Seoul, I felt like I was coming home🇰🇷❤️. I already knew I could speak Korean, so getting through the airport and to the main city was a breeze (but can we talk about Incheon airport? It is so cool. I could literally spend a whole day at just the airport). I quickly got to my hotel in the middle of Seoul and it is way too nice. I feel like an imposter staying here hahaha.
There are some parts of the city that feel so familiar to me, even though I can't fully remember them. One day, I ended up just walking instinctively to this hole-in-the-wall kalgooksu restaurant and had the best noodle soup ever! 🍜(or I think it's the best I've ever had. It also felt so familiar!) Another place that felt super familiar was Dongdaemun and the Design Plaza. It kind of looks like a spaceship, but I knew exactly where to exit the subway station to get there. It was like instinct. The markets in Dongdaemun are so nice! They have so much fashion and accessories 👗 it was all so overwhelming. But I was able to buy gifts for Georgia while I was there
Talking about cool shops, I just wandered around Insadong for like half a day. There are so many side streets with cafes and small shops that you wouldn't even know were there unless you went to explore. From Insadong, I ended up walking to Bukchon traditional village. Both Insadong and Bukchon are known for their traditional hanok houses. And you all, I could LIVE in one of these. They're so beautiful and smell amazing like wood and paper! I found a place in one of these hanok houses called Aromind which lets you design your own perfume scent! It was so cool and I made one for Krista (hope she likes it!) 🎁
I also wrote down all the food places I loved to go with Dustin if we ever come to Seoul together, including this place that does bbq ribs DIPPED 🍖🧀 in melted cheese and a jjajangmyeon place that handrolls their noodles! I wanted to get Dustin a whole package of Hanwoo--prime Korean BBQ beef (did you know you could buy those?!)--but I was worried about getting it through customs, also, it was a lot to ship back to the US. So I got Dustin some green tea from Ossulloc 🍵, I know it's not technically food, but it's food adjacent! And their tea house in Gwanhun-Dong was so gorgeous with all the traditional ceramics and the little displays about how the teas are roasted! Plus, they're right by Jogyesa Buddhist Temple. They told me Jogyesa is the chief temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. The building dates back to the late 14th century! And you can write your wish on a piece of paper and hang it like a little flag. All the wishes fluttering in the air were so beautiful!
I didn't mean to organize my tour around Seoul based on buying the perfect gifts for my friends, but it turned out that way. So I knew I had to find something amazing for Mac, and I did in Gangnam! That neighborhood kind of reminds me of midtown New York with all the skyscrapers and the fancy hotels and buildings. They have the flagship store to this amazing sunglasses store called Gentle Monster. But they don't just sell sunglasses, they also have amazing art displays that the store clerk told me rotates regularly! In fact, lots of the cool high fashion stores do fun artsy displays in Seoul! From there, I just popped over to Lotte World Tower and bought ALL the duty free skincare! I can't wait to try all my facemasks with the band! Apparently Lotte World Tower is the tallest building in South Korea. And they even have an aquarium in there!
This slow cooked shredded beef is fall apart tender and juicy. Perfect for big batches. Enjoy it in tacos, sandwiches, pasta, rice, and more❗
You can use any type of beef, but for this recipe, cheaper cuts with lots of fat and tendons near the bones work best. This is what makes the meat really juicy and tender. For example, short ribs, beef cheeks, beef shank or oxtails. The best part❓ Every time I reheat it, the flavour intensifies, making it taste even better❗🥩🍖😋

I feel like I owe you many thanks for gifting my friend group the best, most unhinged and beautiful catchphrase ever. I cannot explain to you the joy we feel every time we get to say "have an ox rib (platonic)" and earn a very pronounced ???? face from an unfortunate onlooker. it's an endless supply of free serotonin 🍖
This warms Bildaddy's non-demonic, very human (but angel-stolen) heart. Have another ox rib (platonic)
(it’s also an endless supply, no oxen harmed in the making of these ox ribs)
