Its about the same

 One of my burning questions has been - Is the sushi in Japan the same or better than what I get in the USA?

Well, here in the Tokyo airport I had a chance to find out. I ordered a few things to get a sampling: Fatty Tuna, Salmon, and Yellow Tail. It was excellent for sure - The fish was fresh and the rice was soft and sticky. The ginger was smooth and the wasabi was, well, it was wasabi.

Overall, this experience was comparable to a high quality US Sushi bar. (Safeway need not apply)

CaringMeals.com

I have been working on this for sometime now, and it is finally ready:
One Sunday, we were passing around a sheet of paper and a pen in our Sunday School to organize meals for a member in need. The difficulties are plenty:

  • Constant phone calls and emails to recruit meal bringers
  • Frequent phone calls to remind people to bring meals
  • Risk of losing the sheet

CaringMeals was designed to make it easier to organize meals for your family and friends in need.

  • Birth
  • Illness or Injury
  • Bereavement
  • Need for encouragement and support

CaringMeals.com free. So far it has been used by over 25 people to organize meals for 2 families. If you or your group have someone in need, give it shot!
