The Fruits of our Labor

Last night, Randy, Sophie, Rob, Josh and Magic went out in the blustery night and learned to make sushi rolls.

The class was a lot of fun - and we learned what we went there to learn.

How to roll our own...sushi.



Sophie was the most excited of us all, and in typical Sophie fashion, her sushi rolls looked the best. The rest of us did fine too, but you know what your grandma says- they all taste the same no matter what they look like...lol.

It really isn't hard once you get the basics down and learn the tricks. And it's a lot of fun too. The biggest thing I took away from the class was the confidence to just do sushi at home. There isn't really any mystery to it. I also have the confidence to put just about anything I darn well want into a roll.

Want to put raw fish in there? OK - make sure it's good fish, but go ahead.
How about just veggies? Sure, no prob.
Hotdogs? Well...okay...if that makes you happy.

It doesn't really matter what you want to put in there as long as you want to eat it. And it can be a lot of fun on a social level to hang around with your friends, trying not to get covered in sticky rice, making your own rolls. I think that we all had a really good time - we sure laughed a lot - and isn't that point really? Getting together with the people you love, sharing your time and a meal, talking and laughing?

I think so...
