Woohoo…I finally made my own sushi! It’s been on my 2009 to-do list, and we all know how much i LOVE checking things off lists š
But that’s dinner, and I’m type A, so let’s get back to the beginning, already!
Coffee (duh).
Note: snow on the window (still)
Brekkie wrap: soy bacon, “eggs” and avo in a flax wrap-up
Jealous? You should be, it was bomb.com
My coconut date rolls look like a reverse AT&T ad (or whatever company it is that does the “more bars in more places” ad) – that’s what she said!
For lunch I had a bowl of sugar (aka vanilla o’soy yogurt mixed with POM and chopped up figs)
And a plate of sugar (aka melon)
And another plate of carbs (aka Alvarado street bread with sabra CHUNKY hummus)
Again, I skipped the gym. I’m a lazy ass. There’s not really any other way to put it.
This roll contained quinoa, greek yog, hummus, grilled asparagus, tofu, avocado, and carrots.
I got lazy though, so after this I took the left-overs and made it into a pretty presentation.
Um, not to toot my own horn or anything, but…is this a cute little dish or what? Bring it Tom Colicchio! Hummus and quinoa all mixed together is prob my new fave thing.
Work tomorrow. Remember what that is? I don’t…

I guess it did give me some extra time to make a nice dinner for myself (silver lining?)
First I grilled some asparagus in the oven (nuthin but salt)…
Then, I got out all the ingreds to MAKE my own sushi!!!! Seriously, this has been on my to-do list for-EV-er. But, I didn’t go with conventional sushi ingreds. I’m way more crafty.

YUM!!!!
The only problem with my rolls were their inability to slice (the knives weren’t sharp enough to cut through them), so I ate it burrito style. Once a gringo, always a gringo.
My second roll was the same, but BIGGER (and with more hummus).

Chopped and zoomed.
For dessert I added a mountain of soynut butter to a VitaTop choc/peanut butter muffin. Can’t go wrong with this combo!!!
Work tomorrow. Remember what that is? I don’t…
Lovely!!!
Hang in there with work tomorrow!!
Wow, those rolls look great! Hum, I have dull knifes too. But apparently you are to dip the knives in hot water or something like that so it gives a clean cut?? =S I am not sure if that is right. Anyways, everything is so colorful!!!
THat’s what she said…OR HE SAID!
This post made me laugh so hard!
I love that you’re a lazy ass. I’ve been lazy this week too and it feels good. I just feel like eating until I pass out and sleeping all the time. Uhh…
Rob agreed that it was time to roll our own sushi after seeing yours. Love your white girl take on them š
Congrats, that sushi looks really good!!! : )
Wow, I am impressed by your sushi skills! I really like hummus and quinoa mixed together also, yum! I am jeaous of your morning wrap!
I’m super type A too- the sushi look amazing. As do those date rolls….I still have not tried those. They need to hop in my belly asap!I’m seriously buying vitatops after seeing this post for sure
Welcome to the Type A club!! It’s redic how anal about somethings I am!
Hahah love you burrito sushi! Holy moly that dessert – I’m drooling š
Good luck at work today!!
Type A here also! haha Just can’t help some of the things I do. =)
The sushi looks amazing!
I’m a fairly new reader and I was trying to catch up with your archives and have a couple questions. Did you move to NY for your boyfriend? Does your boyfriend live somewhere else now?
your sushi looks great! I have been wanting to make some too at some point- is that a special mat?
I always feared making sushi, it is not as hard as it looks. Yours look AMAZING. good job
One day I’ll try to roll my own sushi! The bf is allergic to seafood and refuses to eat fish, so I may have to be creative like you and add different delicious foods. The Vitatop, BTW, is making me crave one REAL BAD. I may have to order a few!
