Korean Holiday : New Year Food Shopping at Market
I went to Sajik farmer's market with my mom and sister.
We need ricke cake and some fruit.
We were able to buy them at the discount store.
But we all like walking through the market feeling the lively atmosphere.
Just Like a little me.
First, We looked for our first target, rice cake.
There were several rice cake stores.
But this store seems to sell the freshest rice cake just out of the steamer.
Also, it was so very crowded by a throng of people.
Mom bought two loaves of rice cake. (It's 5000won, each.)

Next, we bought sweet rice drink called 'Sikhye'.
My grandma used to make it at home,
but this year, she is not healthy enough to do it, sadly.
I am not that fond of it, so I didn't notice there were no sikhye prepared.
My sister reminded us of the tradition of drinking sikhye.
Mom and I first hesitated. Mom is not a big fan of sikhye, either.
But Sister wanted to buy it for visitors and for herself.
We ended up buying one hottle of sikhye. (As shown, it's 3000won for one bottle.)

Lastly, at the end of the market alley,
we found the fruit store with vivid, luminous colors of fruits.

Mom bought some mandarines
I love mandarines, especially small sized one with thin peel,
that's usually sweeter than others.
I feel like I have already eaten 10 kgs of it this winter.
But I want to eat it more and more. I am crazy for a mandarine.

Mom also bought a few pears.
Pears ripens and get harvested in autumn, so it's not in season now.
Not in season means Very expensive. (1 pear : upto 3,000won)
But it is one of food used in the ancestral rite at the new year.
So, in spite of its high price, Korean buy pears every traditional holiday.
(I will handle this issue on another post later.)

Now, we are almost prepared for welcoming relatives.
BTW, Ladies and Gentlemen! Happy New Year!
