6 month anniversary

It's been six months already since our wedding! I've learned a lot about how to be a good husband, and I'm so happy that I found the best wife ever. Looking through the wedding photos again, it seems like just yesterday... We've only just started our life together, but so far it is great!




And who could forget what a wonderful time we had at the wedding! It's still the talk of the town...



To celebrate our anniversary, we went to eat sushi a few days ago. It's funny because in Canada that's the one thing that everyone knows you're not supposed to eat when you're pregnant! But here in Vietnam and Japan, pregnant women eat sushi all the time... But I only allowed Thao to eat a little bit of sushi, and then she had her favorite fried fish.

So today we were getting the craving for sushi again, just when Thao's "Japanese daddy" said he would come over for a visit and make us sushi!



Here is the "sushi sweatshop" in action! Rice mixed with rice vinegar and sugar, cooked carrots, cucumber, egg, and raw salmon.




Put everything on the seaweed sushi paper, and carefully roll it up. The bamboo roller underneath lets you roll it and pack it tight.




The Sushi Sensei looks on as Thao carefully cuts the roll...




The finished product! Looks so good!




The big plate is for the "wrap it yourself" style sushi, and we also had some miso soup.




Mmmmm I could eat sushi all day!
