I guess this photo proves that my interests lie in things other than cars. The back story is that I'm a certified sushi chef, having graduated from the California Sushi Academy in Santa Monica, California some years ago. Okay, so it was only a one-day class that Carolyn gave me as a gift for some long-forgotten birthday, father's day or something. I learned just enough to get me in trouble and cause me to wear this head band and kimono and try to speak in pidgeon-Japanese. Hai, dozo! Actually, it's kinda fun and we get together with friends and family from time to time for "sushi night" at our house. Of course preparing sushi is very labor intensive so I usually enlist the help of sister-in-law, Cheryl, friends of my son James' , Chris and Jeremy, and others to slice and dice along with me. The key (and it's a secret) is that Chris is a sales rep for Seattle Fish Company and gets us great deals on very fresh seafood, typically with enough left over for some seared Ahi tuna steaks the following night. We have also recently discovered an awesome Asian market in Aurora, CO, where we blitz through to collect the rest of the condiments and the best produce at the best prices in town.
Why Blog?
I haven't completely figured out what I want to accomplish with this blog except to keep friends and families in the loop and to show that I'm actually multi-dimensional and not completely car obsessed. If nothing else it should be a great exercise and a nice diversion from writing about cars all the time. Hope you enjoy!
