sushi, green onion cakes and other little things

my last week of work has begun (and almost ending). started off on monday making sushi. first off i work with one of the most amazing people when it comes to cooking. she just whips up stuff like no other i have seen before. AND she did it again (this time with sushi). my other co-worker and i stared in amazement as she piled everything onto the rice and rolled it like it was nothing. "i am terrified" was my co-worker's immediate reaction to making this as we were both in charge while tempura was being made in the kitchen. i have to say: SO MUCH FUN (and actually easy once you get the hang of it)

today was another adventure. i have said it many times before how much i adore green onion cakes. well since tomorrow is CARNIVAL DAY. i couldn't think of a better time to cook up a batch myself. well part one was today. i got it from sum.ptuo.us hopefully it turns out!! because if it does it will save me trillions of dollars (or 50$ from all the festivals) AND i can have them whenever i want.

in other news i saw eat, pray, love last night. very similar to the book so if you read it you will find very little surprises. pretty good overall.

tonight i am going grocery shopping for our trip. packing tomorrow. then off!
see ya

love
