Have you ever...

Have you ever spent the longest time trying to find out some minute detail about a show and once you found it you just said, "Jeeze, I knew that all along!" I did that tonight.

I spent probably around 5 hours tonight trying to figure out what that buzzing walkie talkie was called that Sana used on Kodocha during most of the first season. And if you wanna know what it is called, it's a burucha. Good luck trying to find a picture of the stupid thing, though. I searched and searched and came up empty handed. Insert exasperated sigh here.

Well, at least now I can remember what the stupid thing is called so that I can do things without being distracted by that thought. And if you can find a picture of the babbit barucha, can you please link it or something? It's driving me nuts.

Yours in fellow insanity,
Kay


UPDATE!:

(I've just found a picture of it!!!)

Korean drama review! Numero 3, I believe...Pasta


Pasta is about a woman who dreams of becoming a chef, specifically, the chef of the restaurant that she is working for, La Sfera. La Sfera is an Italian restaurant that only makes the finest Italian cuisine in Korea. It is a very popular and well known store. Our main character is only a kitchen aid. She only gets plates, restocks food and wine for the cooks and do menial tasks such as making pickles and such for the waiting staff to put on the tables. Not very impressive stuff seeing as how all she has wanted to do for the past 3 years is hold a frying pan.

Now, as a new employee comes in and takes her place as kitchen aid, she finally has her chance to show her worth as a pasta cook. The only problem is that as soon as she gets her chance, a new chef takes place of the one she worked under before and because of that, she is given many problems. This new chef doesn't let women work in his kitchen and says that love between anyone in his kitchen is unacceptable. 

Now that all of the women have been thrown out of the kitchen because of their romantic involvement with the male cooks, she has to figure out what to do to pay her rent! Should she go work for her father in his restaurant or should she try once again at La Sfera even though the chef is obviously against females cooking with him?

I am a few episodes away from finishing this series. So far, I like it. It is a very traditional Korean cooking drama. There’s the love interest who has no real interest in the main character, the unexpected helper to the main character, and some supposedly major reason that blocks those two from finding love or showing it between them.

Bottom Line:
I give this a 3/5. It isn’t too surprising in any way but it has a good enough plot and moves along well enough that you will be willing to watch and possibly a good one to re-watch.
