Today is Chuseok, Korean Thanksgiving and Harvest Festival!

Chuseok, Korean Harvest Festival and Thanksgiving, one of the most important holidays of the year, falls on the 15th day of the eight lunar month and this year that is September 25th. It's a time for homecoming, sharing of food and drink, singing and dancing, giving thanks, and remembering the ancestors. In our house things are hardly traditional but at least this year Omoni is visiting from LA and we have clear skies so we can admire a gorgeous, bright full moon, a Harvest Moon, in its full splendor.
