I struggle with writing about my background, too, Hoang. I don't come from money either. My mom has been homeless several times throughout her life and my dad lives in a campervan to this day. This is not easy stuff to share, so well done on being brave. Sending hugs.
Your mother’s pickled bok choy sounds too simple to work, but I know from my experience of pickling cucumbers and other veggies how few ingredients it takes to create something delicious--and often economical--and I do love anything pickled! I will give this a try--and also the kabocha soup you write about on your link. Your posts are always interesting and thought-provoking, Hoang.
