boring saturday

Well, cam and i didnt do much today. we woke up late (after eating din at emily and matt's then girls winning at cranium then sledding down a dangerous crazy hill). we decided to work out at the Y b/c we are both getting to be fattys (well not really but we feel like it). then cam has studied all day while i tried to knit a hat with circular needles for the second time. it was a really good hat the first time but it was wayyyyy too big. the second time somehow it got all twisted up and it almost made me cry to undo it. so i started a scarf. but my thyroidism has kicked in to full gear and i feel tired all the time and it takes a lot for me NOT to fall asleep on the couch all day. Schnooze is feeling a lot better and she is even jumping around and playing with her toys. wednesday i get to drive to loveland to see my dear friend susanne and her baby girl sophie. cam starts classes on monday. we have a fellowship thing at our house sunday. friday we got our new washing machine and it is as cam would say BALLS! in less than 2 weeks the cannons are flying us to Plano to see them all for LeaAnn's bday!!!
My dear cousin (who taught me how to make scambled eggs in the microwave when we were wee) inquired how to make sushi at home... so i will try and tell you.
#1 you need sticky rice (whole foods or organic store has it in bulk) when you make this sticky rice you better look on the internet... it's complicated and takes a long time
#2 seaweed wraps
#3 salmon or eel or tuna or shrimp tempura
#4 avocados, carrots, cucumbers, egg omlet, cream cheese
#5 rice vinegar is key, so rice doesnt stick to your hands
#6 bamboo rollers
#7 lay the wrap flat on the roller, put some rice and other goodies in it, roll it up, chpo it in bite size rolls :)
#8 very difficult, you probably need to be with someone who has done it before... but it is super fun and a great entertaining thing!!!
you would also need soy sauce and wasabi, and sake or japanese beer! and when you buy the seafood, you gotta make sure it's sushi quality, you dont want to get diarrhea on your first time!!! jsut come to denver and we will give you a free lesson!!!
We are going to the bar with steve... peace out.
GOOD NEWS>>>> JULIE MALECEK IS MOVING HERE IN SEPT!!!!
