My first Halloween, so of course I’d opt to be a sushi roll. First and foremost, I’m round and fat, for now, and sushi is so popular down here in Chile of all places you’d think we’d have our fare share of amazing Asian restaurants. Alas, we do not, rather we have a hybrid Chilean version of sushi that isn’t half bad, and here is what it looks like on a baby …
My Mom helped out with the arts & crafts on this one. The fish was slimy and as the day went on (very hot here right now) there was an odd odor emanating from my chest. No doubt I was some sort of public health nightmare (my grandpa Ralph the public health professor would be shaking in his Birkenstocks right now if he knew) but we pulled it off. People were definitely scared.
Big props go out to my Mom, she’s the best sushi outfit-maker this side of the Amazon jungle …
