The things my grandmother says

I came home today after work to spend some time with my grandmother from Korea.

She is known to be verbally absurd and unstoppable.

Here are some choice bits, translated:

After eating diy California Rolls, korean melon, cantaloupe, and slurping on her BB-Big red bean popsicle, she grinned and said, "I am the most happiest when I eat. Don't you think all people are the happiest when they eat?"

After railing about her kids, she turned to me with a big smile and said, "You know, even though I may sound like I hate my kids, my heart is always overflowing with love. I am truly a warm person." My dad and I looked at each other and burst out laughing. Absurd.
