Sushi

I love sushi. Ever since I tried it 13 years ago I was hooked.
Growing up in a small town, there was no such thing. Even moving away to school up north didn't make me aware. It wasn't until 1998 when I was working in Burlington (which had a much larger diversity of restaurants) did I get to try it after some coaxing by some coworkers.
I started off with a nonthreatening menu: cucumber rolls, California rolls, etc but when I tried salmon rolls for the first time that was it.
I have tried pretty much everything but my absolute favourite is salmon, especially salmon sashimi. It is so mild and buttery and full of flavour. Of course, salmon rolls and salmon sushi are fantastic too.
More and more all-you-can eat places are springing up. Which is good as ordering a-la cart is not cheap.
Don't forget, a little wasabi is all you need.

To Blog or Not to Blog

So I figured that I would attempt blogging again.

I had a couple of blogs early on; one when I was single, and I attempted a family one but that never got off the ground.

So what the hell, I thought. Everyone else is doing it.

I am by no means any type of writer. You have been warned.

The blog title? Well those are my 3 main vices in life.

Vice #1. Coffee




I'll admit it, I'm a Starbucks addict.
I would get one everyday if:
a) my wallet would let me.
b) my waistline would let me.
Having said that I probably drink too many anyway (2-3 a week). Yeah it's pricey coffee. If if you truly love coffee and appreciate the art, flavour and experience of the entire procedure of making espresso and steaming the milk perfectly, then it's definitely the best.
My go to stand by coffee? Venti non-fat white mocha, no whip. But during the summer, nothing beats a light peppermint frappuccino.
I don't get brain freeze. But my throat sure freezes up and spasms.
