With Project 1 finished and delivered, it is now time to begin Project 2: Sushi Rolls. This is in appreciation of a cook at the cafeteria who everyone loves, especially me, and who may be leaving sometime this semester. Thus, I want to create something that will show her that I appreciate everything she has done, especially the sushi.
I began with a good small chunk of wood whose ends needed to trimmed off to make smooth flat surfaces. After a good (oh excuse me, the sarcasm is dripping from my lip) time sawing and some good (there, the sarcasm is gone) stripping, this is what it looked like. Since sushi is never that big, this was a good opportunity to saw the piece in half and create two sushi pieces instead of one...
...which resulted in this. I am going to base the designs off of my friend's sushi rolls, which contain red peppers, mushrooms, and some green vegetable of whose name I do not know (the whole roll is like a California roll in basic structure). Since the outer part of the sushi is the seaweed, and seaweed has texture, I am not going to sand the sides. The carving of rice and vegetables on the tops and bottoms will most likely be the trickiest part, so I better equip myself with plenty of patience for this project. Nonetheless, I am very excited thus far, especially since I don't have to saw anymore.
