Cucumber flower sushi

There are few things guaranteed in life. Death, taxes, and me chronically misestimating my sushi rolls.

I have been making sushi for FOURTEEN GOSH FREAKING YEARS and they still end up lopsided EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Like, seriously, go look at the archives on my blog, so many of the sushi pictures are quite obviously lopsided.

My husband gets so mad at me because he’s just like, why. Why are you completely unable to fix this lopsidedness issue.

But I say it’s a feature, not a bug, because consistency is a virtue. Right? Right.

Someday I’ll get my shit together… maybe… but today? Is not that day.

Triangle Kappa Maki

Kazari sushi, attempt number two!

I’m trying to shape it into a triangle this time, and you know, this is a lot harder than it looks.

This is why, on social media and everywhere, I’m always pushing the idea of making and sharing your “shitty art”.

It would be super easy to just get frustrated because I don’t know what I’m doing, and I’m really bad at this, and none of my sushi is turning out right.

But it’s okay. It’s shit, and I know it’s shit, and it’s supposed to be shit, because you can’t get to good without going through the shit bits first!

But if you can be okay with the shit, and keep going, you’ll probably be surprised at how fast your shitty art stops being shitty.

At least, that’s what I’m telling myself about the sushi.

Square Kappa Maki

I just can’t get away from sushi. Every time I start a new project, it always comes back to sushi.

So… uh… heh. We’re doing sushi again.

This time around, my husband had the idea to do kazari sushi. This is the kind of sushi where it’s rolled so that when you slice it, you get a cool design or picture.

But here’s the problem. I’m really, really bad at it.

But you know what, that’s okay, because practice makes perfect, right?

The basis of all kazari sushi designs is different shapes, so we’re going to start by attempting some shapes.

Key word being, “attempt”.

This… was supposed to be a square.
