Sushi

I cannot believe I forgot to post about this!!! Whenever Hubba goes out of town, the boys & I enjoy things for dinner that Hubba won't stomach- fish, liver, etc. Yes, my kids actually like this sort of stuff!!! Last month, Hubba went to OH for almost a week. On the menu- beef liver & mashed potatoes; sushi; tilapia, among other things. We made sushi for the FIRST time! Here are some pics. I'm actually quite chuffed at how well they turned out for a first timer. I made California rolls. One for the ease to break myself in & 2- the boys, I wasn't sure how they'd deal with it. It was a HUGE HIT!! Well, except Keenan, the persnickety one. I made him "special" sushi. You'll see.....








"Special" sushi for 5 year old boys.....

Trim crust of a slice of bread. Roll as flat as you can get it. Lay 1 slice each cheese & meat on bread. Place 1 carrot stick in the middle of the pile of "special" stuff. Roll tightly & pat some water on the edge before rolling all the way closed. The water makes "bread glue" & helps the sushi roll seal. Just like real sushi with seaweed.

    Yum! This looks so good!
    I've never actually had sushi, but I wouldn't mind giving it a go... Is it hard to make?
    It also gives me some good ideas for my little day care kids as well! Ham with a sprinkling of cheese and carrot sticks, egg salad with a dill spear or shredded celery...the list is endless!

"....But if we are the Body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the Body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus paid much too high a price
For us to pick and choose who should come
And we are the Body of Christ...."
