i guess that should be considered a good thing…
i’m going on day three of manicotti. it’s still tasty, but i think i overestimated my patience with the same food item on repeat. i also mis-portioned and have two days worth more than i planned for.
i was also inspired by a friend to work on a project that i think will turn out quite awesome, if i get my arse in gear. it’s a chess set with pieces of sushi/makizushi made from fimo (or sculpey, either one) and the board will look like woven nori and white nori. tho that is starting to sound too ambitious, so i’ll keep you posted.
the pieces will be as follows:
black, pawns: salmon roll, knights: ebi, bishops: seared maguro, rooks: unagi, queen: tobiko, king: ikura
white, pawns: avocado roll, knights: amaebi, bishops: maguro, rooks: anago, queen: uni, king: shrimp head
i tried keeping cooked sushi for black and raw for white, but had to use the shrimp head for the king because they typically serve that when you order amaebi.
also, doing research for this project should be considered cruel and unusual punishment. :/
