Citrus and Sushi
.Not in the same dish, thank you veddy much!
First, be sure to check out this month's Sugar High Friday round-up, hosted by Alice of My Adventures in the Breadbox.
Second, please check out the wacky and fabulous Archie McPhee. Among their latest goodies: patterned tape!
Imagine wrapping up your next birthday gift with sushi tape!
Also available: pirates, tiki, Rosie the Riveter, bacon, and more!
I often toy with buying all their fabulous sushi products: wind-ups, deck of cards, bandages, rugs, and tissues!
Oh, come on...you're what? Shocked and surprised? I love me some sushi!

2 Thoughts for food:
I could not have said it any better...thanks, honey!
And sushi is such a sensual food...involving all senses but hearing. It is traditional to both eat it with your hands and with chopsticks. As I've yet to master the sticks, I eat with my fingers. There's the smells...no, not of raw fish, but of rice wine, wasabi, soy sauce. Of course, few foods are as visually stunning as a platter of sushi. And as for taste?
Put it this way: I come from a small, traditional town, with traditional foods. I didn't grow up wiht "ferrin'" foods. Top that with the fact I'm a very picky eater (texture issues, don't like cooked veggies, no fruit in things...).
But? I adore sushi. I could eat it every single day...if I could find a half-way decent restaurant around here. As is, we (mostly Matt, because he's sweet that way) make it ourselves.
I suggest you try it with someone in the know...someone who not only understands sushi, but your own individual preferences for food (Matt was able to help me this way on a number of cuisines; telling me that yes I would, or no, I most definitely not enjoy a certain dish), who can direct you through your first sushi encounter.
If you're frightened of the fish, stick with the cooked or veggies version. I highly recommend the tomago (it's fantastic, and I've used the base for a couple of End of Month Egg on Toast Extravaganza entries), the Inari, or any of the vegetables.
