Sushi, comma, wind-up
Jun. 19th, 2003 07:37 pmBack when
akirlu was living with her ex-, John, they had some wind-up sushi on the bar. Pretty neat toys. And when they broke up, one of the things Ulrika had to leave behind was the sushi.
That was over 15 years ago.
Since then, we've always kept an eye out for wind-up sushi. During those years, they became surprisingly difficult to find. Even with the Galaxy's Largest Yard Sale that the Internet can sometimes be.
But... I found some. They arrived today. Here's the pic of them from that page:

I think they're better quality than the originals. I don't know if you've ever seen the plastic food re-creations some Japanese restaurants put in their windows, but these sushi are like that. Kinda glossy, but real despite it.
And they roll and spin the way they should... Vastly superior to the walking variety of wind-up sushi we've been making do with for the last few years since the last time I went out hunting.

I didn't know there was such a thing as wind up sushi but now I feel that I must have some.

Total cost out the door, tax, shipping, and handling included, is $15, for what that's worth.
