I forgot to take photos yesterday, but I figure the mass amounts of photos on Tuesday will make up for it. This is our Mulgogi (water meat=fish). We adopted him from one of Sam's coworkers. We cleaned out the tank last Sunday. The water was so murky it looked like a pond. Additionally, the pump had stopped working and it was fairly new. I thought that maybe it broke but Sam ended up dismantling it and we cleaned out all the fishy poop. It resembled this Korean food made out of acorn starch and that is very hard to pick up with chopsticks. Anyhow, the Mulgogi is right in front of our window and the sound of the pump making bubbles is a really relaxing addition to our home.

On a sidenote, check out this awesome recipe I happened upon on accident tonite:
