sushi redux

Yuki, who WWOOFed for the Pujjis in June of this year, arrived yesterday for a visit. When she was here the first time, she taught Jane and Arvind how to make ‘lazy sushi,’ which we had the other night. Instead of rolling sushi ahead of time and guessing what people want, and potentially having to waste the ones that don’t roll neatly, you just set out all the ingredients and cut sheets of nori into quarters, and everybody assembles their own real-time.

I made two trips into town today, both including Fresh Choice stops…the cashiers there pretty much know me by now, and I think they all hpe I’m not going to choose them – today the guy got really excited when he found pre-packaged salad greens on the belt – “I love bar codes!” Usually pretty much everything I buy is from the organic produce section, so nothing’s labeled even with stickers, and they have to look up the SKU and type it in. I had to educate one cashier about the identity of celery last week – kids these days! ;)
