Didn't know sushi could even be a fast food type til my son showed me recently. I love how it all began with your wife's request. You have a flare of gentleman's manners in this write. I was hoping and praying the last line for you was NOT gonna be BARF or SPIT! lol. U are a good sport. Thanks for participating in this contest. Great work. Gwendolen
