darn you, silly atkins diet! i miss my maki (but not sashimi -- never was into that). rice has so many carbs... ::sigh::
sake is japanese rice wine. it can mess you up quick, especially considering that it comes in little teeny flasks. smells like paint thinner, but it doesn't taste too bad.
Holy crap. Does that place prepare good Ikura too?

I've never had sushi before but I must admit, that picture made me say, 'YUMMY!' Of course, sushi from Lake EERIE probably isn't the first place I should try it from, huh....
Your eye for composition is intriguing. You've made sushi appear monumental... like a mountainscape with a line of red trees along the top. Interesting stuff.
Very pretty fish eggs. They are indeed the highlight of the photograph. Glowing little souls ready for consumption. I am proud to love dooce and all her beautiful pictures.

Ummm...hate sushi...love Dooce pix...would love to see how you'd portray my favorite snack foods...(and one of yours too)...the DORITO!! Yum...think I'll have some now!
I know I should be talking about the picture, but...
Your micro-post about the Cheeto Hands made me laugh out loud. My sister-in-law is from the South, and I can't get the idea of her yelling that at my brother out of my head.
Oh yeah, and I had no idea that Canadians even celebrated Thanksgiving. What an insensitive ethnocentric bastard that must make me. Bad, bad bad.
Sushi! Ohhhhh....drool...I've been missing good sushi (at least my favorite, the RAW type) since I've been pregnant. I still go for the non-raw type because I've actually been craving WASABI (can you hear the waves of drool crashing down my chin?), and eating wasabi straight just doesn't cut it. Ten more weeks...mmmmmm....

In Canada, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday in October. Unlike the American tradition of remembering Pilgrims and settling in the New World, Canadians give thanks for a successful harvest. The harvest season falls earlier in Canada compared to the United States due to the simple fact that Canada is further north.Butchart Gardens
i had chirashi (sashimi on a bed of sushi rice) for lunch and now i am still craving sushi for dinner. i may even go get some. one can never eat too much sushi, i believe.
also, as much as i love the camera and think it is wonderful, i really think it's your talent and eye for color and composition that make your pictures so great, dooce. right? please tell me this is so, so that i don't run out and spend a thousand dollars on a camera.
I think I like some of the thumbnails as much as the actual photos.
Happy CDN Turkey Day.
There IS only ONE Lauren.

you do take great photos. i wonder what doesn't make it....other than the ones that involved extreme nudity. this photo is good, but sushi is handsome food. i challenge you to take a photo of ...oh, let's say gravy, oatmeal or any "meat" baby food and make it look as good. no cheating and having beautiful utah mts in the background! or sexing it up with extreme nudity. or would nudity and oatmeal be the ultimate challenge. hm...

I love your camera. You can make anything look good.

5. Chellerella said:
Anything? That's SUSHI - that's making what already looks good, LOOK GREAT! This site is of great pleasure to surf!
I'm thankful for it...
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!

For someone who doesn't really like sushi (too much saki..blech), even this picture makes me want to eat it!
Have you ever seen this site? It's pretty neat-o.

See, this is just so unfair. I can't get that in Dogpatch and if I could, I wouldn't trust it not to kill me.
If you need me, I'll be over here licking my monitor.

The intense color saturation and definition on that roe and the translucency of the fish over the rice on those rolls is superb!

Yum...

You got me hungry..
Wonderful picture!
21. Jenny said:
Sushi! I'm the biggest sushi addict. I also take pictures of food.
This reminds me...I haven't had sushi in two weeks.
22. Jenny said:
Oh, almost forgot: Happy Canadian Thanksgiving =)
23. Regan said:
mmmmmmm...sushi!
just how I like it, too, with lots of roe on top that burst like tiny bubbles in you teeth.
dammit. now I'm hungry!

I am so jealous...of the photographic abilities, and the food.
Keep it up!

I bet being able to have sushi after pregnancy was fabulous! It was one of the things I ran towards first. That and advil.

Sushi...oh sushi...wasabi...oh yum. I can't wait 'til I get to eat solid food.
When I saw the red roe in the tiny picture on the main page I thought it was Fall leaves. I like this--sushi as landscape.

never eat sushi anywhere without a coastline.
not really a problem now that i'm vegetarian, but still i think solid in principle.

I just saw Super Size Me. I'm going vegetarian for awhile...but that doesn't mean I give up sushi & sashimi.

How lucky, you can put photos up of *sushi* and get fifty responses. :)
