Day One Without the Parents

Ok folks here is an update finally. This morning I took my parents to the airport so they could go on their trip to the Bahamas. Then later in the day Thao came over and we hung out together, ran a bunch of errands (including my grocery shopping) and for dinner we made sushi together. I think it came out ok tasting, but Thao was a harsher critic and she wasn’t a fan of it. The main problem is that the rice had too much of a vinegar flavor from the rice vinegar. So we have learned and next time it will be better.


I think our sushi LOOKED pretty damn good though. The main ingredients of the sushi was rice (of course), nori (seaweed), carrots (maybe a little too crunchy for sushi but still good), cucumbers, imitation crab meat and on one batch of sushi baked salmon on top, on the other batch panko bread crumbs.


I hope you enjoy the pictures, I definitely enjoyed making the sushi and I expect to make it again some time in the near future.

Dragonlance THE MOVIE!!!!!

The other day I heard great news. I am signed up for the SciFi email newsletter from SciFi.com and I came across an article announcing the creation of my favorite books being turned into full length animated motion pictures. Yes the Dragonlance Chronicles are coming to a theater near you (well in fall of 2007 at least). I was ecstatic, I never thought they would make these into movies, but happy to hear they will. I am still a little hesitant about them though because there are some relatively graphic parts to the story and they are creating it as a cartoon. I hope they do well with it or I could be really pissed. Anyway, there isn’t too much out about it yet, but they have announced a few of the voices.
