Among the odder things I caught on tv while staying at my sister's condo with the P's was a Korean period drama on the kitchen staff of the royal house. Although I didn't understand a lot of things being said, the subtitles helped me along the way. It was really interesting to see all the fabulously colored dishes in shiny brass serving pieces. The best part, however, was theory and instruction it gave on royal cuisine - it's fascinating to watch and learn a little bit of how food was prepared back then. The backstabbing that normally comes with office politics is just icing on the cake.
