If you love sushi, like I love sushi

Oh my gosh, I can not even tell you how badly I've wanted sushi for the last few weeks.  But since I've been sick.  I haven't wanted to go anywhere and the thought of eating anything other than toast or oatmeal has only happened within the last two days. 

So today, I went to the store and bought everything I needed to make my own sushi.  I used crab (not the real thing :P), smoked salmon, cucumber, avocado and cream cheese.  Along with rice, of course.  Here is a link to many sushi recipes.  I skipped the nori, I'm not a big fan.  My favorites were the ones that I used thin slices of cucumber to wrap the rice and salmon.  I even had a little wasabi mixed with soy sauce.  And the part that made me laugh, when I was taking my dish to the table, a country song came on, "...looks like we made it."  Oh, it was just like the movies.  Only sad, because that's the highlight of my life at the moment.  Making sushi.  I have another fishy project I've been working on, but you are just going to have to come tomorrow to see that surprise.

Strange fact: my first meal I ever cooked was macaroni and cheese and hot dogs.  Burnt the hot dogs and undercooked the noodles.  Crunchy mac and cheese with black hot dogs.  My poor sister and brother!  I was 12.  My mom is probably laughing right now, because I know she remembers that fiasco!
