When I crave foods, I crave them — hard. I spend my entire day (or week in this case) thinking about the craved food, dreaming of the craved food, and imagining what it will taste like when I get to eat it.
It’s okay if you make fun of me — I won’t care. This week I was craving some sushi hardcore. I could not get it off my brain. I had to have it. Which is why when I realized that Friday night is pizza night, I could get sushi takeout instead, and the Husband could still get his coveted pizza.
6 avocado rolls + 6 asparagus rolls = pure bliss
This meal definitely did not disappoint. I love the seaweed wraps on sushi — that’s my favorite part. I know a lot of people like the rolls that don’t have the seaweed, but I crave that saltiness of the seaweed paper!
It also helped that I figured out I could change my white balance on my camera for ridiculously horrible lighting — changing you ISO + White Balance makes the world go round. And if you have no idea what I’m talking about, just “ooh” and “aah” because my pictures don’t have a horrid yellow tone. All I know is that I averted yet another crisis of terrible sushi pictures because of it.
Today could have been one of the best days I’ve had in a while. My mom let me pilfer her Costco card while she is on vacation — I came home with some goods.
Obviously this picture was taken before the white balance on my camera was changed. Doesn’t it make such a difference?
Whether or not you think so, just look at all those brussels sprouts — a whole 2 pounds just for me — spinach for some green monsters (another craving), and a ginormous tub of hummus. Life is good. Because let’s face it — a life without these three items = crisis.
I also picked up our wedding album (finally!!) today.
I’m. In. Love.
Some of my favorite pages:
The picture on the left side above is getting made into a canvas for our home — it is my absolute favorite picture from the wedding. Weeping willows make me happy (ironic, no?).
You can now pretend like you weren’t waiting for the giveaway results for the entire time you were reading this post. I’m super excited to announce the winner!

I think I feel a dark chocolate craving coming on. I need to go take care of it before it becomes an issue a crisis.
Question: What’s a crisis you averted today? OR How do you feel about sushi?
