10 Minute Warm Up Monday.....again in the kitchen!!! making Sushi!!!

I guess I am spending my warm up time creating in the kitchen these past few days....but I had to!! I was so craving some Sushi today and thought that it would be amazing to use some grilled cilantro, lime garlic Shrimp in these rolls so I did!!! I cooked my Sushi Rice first....

I picked up some of the President's Choice Japanese Sticky rice....and I don't like added sugar so I just made it with some vinegar.....after it cooked and cooled a bit I sprinkled some white vinegar on it....and that is it.....then I used some Grilled Shrimps and veggies and rolled these babies up....served them with some ponzu sauce and they are just as good as any I have had!!!

Happiness!!!

Enjoy!!!

3 "Yummy Sketch of the Day" Requests and some updates....

Hi Everyone...

I was so happy that I received 3 special requests for my "Yummy Sketch of the Day" The First request is from CES, she was craving some chocolate ice cream with chocolate sauce and chocolate cake on the side...my kind of chocolate feast..lol

My second request is from Kathleen. She was in the mood for a nice plate of Sushi with a side of miso...and some chopsticks....( I had to make them pink)

My third request is from Candace. She was craving a memory from summer time...a nice mint chocolate ice cream cone....my favorite too! Make sure you link over to all their sites....they have wonderful blogs...

I spent another wonderful day in the studio painting and dreaming and spending some time on my business plan for 2008. On top of that debating on what my next wood burning project will be....and just finished watching "Celebrity Apprentice" ....I am addicted to the show and it's only in it's second week...the guys are the best and I laughed at Gene Simmons...what a wonderful character....so positive and so sure ....the best was when he said that they have no time for the client...too funny.....but I have to say the guys commercial won me over 10x more versus the women's one....the voice and the use of celebrity made more business sense to me and I can see Pedigree using it....who wouldn't....

Well have a wonderful night and wonderful day....and I look forward to more requests....

Cheers,
Diana
