Sushi Feast

Mama Fish Head made sushi last night — from scratch. It was as far as I know her first attempt at crafting this most exotic if foods (in the eyes of most Minnesotans at least). The result was quite simply excellent and delectable. It was deliciously paired with a Kloster Eberbach 2001 Steinberger Reisling which the fellow at Haskell's recommended very enthusiastically. Evidently "2001 was an awesome year in Germany," at least where wines are concerned.

And today, when I got to take a freshly sliced roll of leftovers to work for my lunch, it was difficult to contain myself. I really wanted to stand up in my cubicle and wave my arms in the air crying, "I am feasting upon delectable homemade sushi, you suckers!" But really, what would that have accomplished?
