Baby Gryphon's 100th Day Celebration

My friends Chena and Brad recently brought their first baby Gryphon home to Portland from the east coast to meet all his adoring fans. One of many gatherings thrown in their honor was Gryphon's Baek-il or 100th-day celebration. During a traditional Korean Baek-il the family gives offerings to Samshin (the birth goddess) for helping the mother and infant survive the baby's first 100 day period. Relatives and friends celebrated with rice cake, soup, and other delicacies. It was a wonderful afternoon filled with families and delicious Korean cuisine. Welcome baby G!!
