Sushi is for Lovers

So I (Katrina) am coming off of about 4 years working in a sushi restaurant in Scottsdale, AZ.
It was a great job and I met incredible people working there.
However, my dream job IS NOT serving raw fish.
(Shocker, right?)

So I must admit that when, on our road trip to the North Land, I came across my old apron in the car and realized I no longer had use for it, I promptly disposed of it in the most ethical way possible (when one is sleeping in the woods):

Cathartic? Oh, yes.
Don't get me wrong, it is nothing against the place where I worked, which was wonderful to me, just more of a confirmation that I was leaving some parts of my life behind in order to make room for the new adventures that lay ahead. 

But, old habits die hard.
I'm kind of starting to miss sushi!
So my wonderful and fabulous boy, magnificent chef that he is, decided to try his hand at some HOMEMADE SUSHI!


Luckily I have a lot of sushi recipes stored in the ole' think tank so we were able to simply buy what we needed and start rolling. . .







 
 On the menu that night:

California Rolls
Spicy Tuna Rolls
Kirin Ichiban (beer)

Little Lily Nigori Sake (our favorite!)



Godzilla descends upon the innocent!

Yum! Yum! Yum!

We were actually kind of surprised that we had such success finding everything we needed to make sushi up here.
But we are so happy that we did!
With the right materials, homemade sushi is easy, fresh, and delicious!
Kampai!
