“You have to come try these banchan! Or I guess you've probably already tried them with your friend Sandy. But anyway! There's a kimchi made out of cucumbers stuffed with chili and onions and some kind of garlic chives? Whatever it is, it is amazing, and you must put it in your mouth right now!" I still felt bad about not answering the bartender. But when I turned back around to apologize or at least say something, he was off polishing a glass at the other end of the bar, conversing with one of the old men about the K-drama. So I went with her and put it win my mouth right then. And not just the stuffed cucumber kimchi. We ate seaweed salad with sweet vinegar, and crunchy sesame lotus root, and dried shredded squid with a spicy sauce, and steamed eggs, all with sticky white rice, and then we had bulgogi, thin grilled slices of marinated beef. It was all drool-worthy. I imagined I could taste Luke in every one: the extra shake of vinegar that took the seaweed right to the edge of being too tart but stopped just in time; the intentional lack of spice on the steamed eggs, necessary for a palate cleanser between all of the bright and spicy and sour.”

“Carolina took a sip. Wow. This ponche was unlike any she'd ever had, and she considered herself a ponche snob. "This is so good! It has a tart taste I'm not familiar with. What's in it?" Julieta grinned. "Oh, I use tejocotes. They are simultaneously sweet and sour. Super hard to find, but I discovered an orchard in Julian that supplies them for me. I brought them up for the holiday." Carolina liked this woman already. Tejocotes were a small stone fruit that tasted a bit sour, kind of like a guava-laced bitter apple. She loved the colors of them--- they could be variegated shades of orange, yellow, or red.”

“Ketika muda, berusaha meraih mimpi itu tidak mudah. Terkadang jatuh dan melukai diri sendiri. Namun, jika kita terus berusaha, berlari, dan berpegang pada harapan, masa muda seolah tidak akan berakhir. Karena muda atau tidak, hanya perkara angka dan usia. Sepanjang kita masih punya mimpi dan terus berupaya mewujudkannya, percayalah bahwa kita akan tetap muda selamanya.”
