I don't know which to try first, the Peking Duck (with MSG) or the Beef Stroganoff?

Sushi Cake

Allison turned twelve this week, and her mom helped her put on a party. Karen seems to enjoy the party-giving. That, or she's compensating for something. I don't want to know.

The party consisted of two main parts: the Amazing Race part, wherein 13 girls run around the neighborhood to find the next clue and trying not to get run over by Hillcrest traffic; and the wacky dinner part, where Cameron was a fancy waiter taking orders and serving mystery food.

Then there was the cake.

Ally enthusiastically added sushi to her plate this year. It was on our third or fourth outing that she asked, "hey, is this stuff raw?" But it was too late. Hanaroo maki is not to be denied.

Behold, the sushi cake. Made by Karen. Inspired by watching too much Ace Of Cakes. She's the greatest.

Sushi Cam

It appears that several people have had the bright idea to place a digital camera on a sushi conveyor belt and hit record. Just enter "sushi cam" into Youtube's search field and you'll get results. But none of these Youtube videos come close to aesthetic appeal of this recently surfaced LiveLeak video. Surely this is the world's greatest sushi cam footage.

Awesome faux doc on proper sushi etiquette. Running time = 08:09.

Das Bootsy

So we've been doing spots for the Memphis Grizzlies and had an opportunity to go see how the big boys play NBA basketball. Unfortunately, on the night we went, they lost. But that didn't dampen our day. There was superstar funk in the house... and I'm not just talking about the C&C Music Factory performance at half time.

"Look down there, second row, top hat. Bootsy Collins."

What?! That's right. There he was. Bootsy Collins, in the flesh. Checkin' the game and spreading his happy, funky vibe like he always does. I bet the man would dress like that for an IRS audit.

So from 15 rows back, our host began to yell "Bootsy! Booootsy! Turn around!"

He didn't, but everyone else in our section did. I did get this shot of funk royalty handing out autographs to his subjects.

After spotting Bootsy, we spent the third quarter coming up with possible titles for Bootsy Collins solo albums, with the clear winner presented below. Who knew Bootsy had such a strong German background?

BTW, we've got a special prize for the first commenter who can translate our "Das Bootsy" album subtitle.

Also, The Rendezvous is NOT a tourist joint to be dismissed with a snort.

Scott says, "Charles is a lucky dog, but he has a melancholy side. Some days he just gets fixated on some moment in the past, working it like an old chew toy. We usually get him some green tea and it subsides, but sometimes it's not out of his system until it's properly documented, recorded, enhanced and posted."
