This is very similar to the original Crunchy Shrimp Roll [1]… but with bacon! Because bacon makes everything better. 😛 If you liked the original Crunchy Shrimp Roll and you like bacon, then you are gonna love this one!
Sorry I’ve been gone for the past week… there’s been a bit of family drama what with my little brother being in the hospital and all, so I haven’t had time to post about sushi. No worries though… he came home tonight and there will be more sushi soon! I made some sushi last week so my family could have a real meal instead of fast food and sandwiches all the time, which was much appreciated, especailly by my brother. Hospital food != yummy. (I made Crunchy Shrimp Roll [1], Inari-Zushi [2], and Kristen Maki [3] in case anyone was wondering. So yes, Kristen finally did get her Kristen Maki. 😛 )
Also… I can finally reveal the dance blog I have been hinting about!!! It is called NextDance [4], and has all sorts of tips and advice for dancers, in addition to reviews of any dance shows I get to go see. So go check it out… and let me know what you think of it! I’m open to suggestions and outright criticism! 😀 Let me know if there is anything I can do to make the site more accessible to non-dancers. 🙂
