For those of you not up to date on/following my Sunday Schnauzer posts: right now I am in Grand Forks, British Columbia (a 2 hr ferry and 7 hr drive from where I live) helping my sister move to a new abode. My other sister flew in from Ontario to help as well, and this is the first time we three have been together since our mom died in December 2015!
Moving is chaotic and tiring but you still gotta eat, and lucky for us Grand Forks has a wonderful Japanese restaurant: Sushi Ocean Dream. Definitely stop there if you are in the area.
We were pretty tired after a productive first day of all 3 of us schlepping stuff from the old place to the new, but not too tired to have some fun with the menu.
Us crazy girls went full-on gangster and had us a rock n’ roll sushi party! And then we went to our respective beds and rested up for the rest of the moving yet to come.
And now it’s Day 5 and we are coming to the end – the old place is empty and we are concentrating on making the new place “home” for my sister. Tomorrow is going to be a shopping day for some necessities so we need to leave town in search of some big box stores.
Please let Donna and myself know what’s on your plate this month! I may be late at getting to the Comments but I am definitely looking forward to reading and responding to them!
I’m just too brain dead tired to fiddle with the InLinkz thing this month (sorry, Donna) but Donna will have it on her blog if you want to join the WOYPBC party that way.
Rock on,
The WB
That all looks so yum Deb, and the names are fab! I hope your sister has settled in OK. Great of you all to get together to help out!
Yes, it is great! Sister Power!!!! 💪 Thanks, Debbie 💕
Hi Deb – yes that does all look yummy … and I’d hop right back over for Canadian food, or perhaps BC and VI food. The important part – good to know you’re almost done and your sister will be good to go, once you both leave … an interesting place where she lives, so near the States and that 49th parallel … take care and safe drive back – cheers Hilary
Thank you very much, Hilary 💕 My sister lives in a beautiful, albeit tiny place.
That menu is a hoot! I bet it raised your spirits when your bodies were flagging 🙂 Sushi with the Sisters sounds like it would be a great band name.
It would, wouldn’t it? 😁 Yes, the names revived our spirits, for sure! Thanks, Debs 💕
Now I’m hungry and inspired to pull off something similar! 🍤🍣🥢
Then my job here is done 😉😜 Thanks, Monch 💕
I’m not a Sushi fan, but I am the middle sister–actually I had two half-sisters and a full sister above me and one remaining youngers sister below me. Good that your sisters are there and you’re close.
We’re happy to be all here together too! Thank you 💕
Boy, that sushi looks fabulous. Hope you had some good wine with it.
Dammit, I knew we forgot something! 🤣🥂 Actually, we were all too tired to be drinking anything alcoholic that night. Thanks, Bernadette 💕
I love tempura but have never been a huge sushi fan. It looks very pretty though.
It was pretty AND delicious! Thanks, Rivergirl 💕
That food sure looks good with creative presentations and the menu if fun but sushi gives me hives just look at the pictures.
I would hate to have a seafood allergy! Thanks, Jean 💕
That plate looks amazing. Love the names and with the exception of Rock n Roll, I picked them all correctly! Personally, I would have added The Ugly Truth to the mix.
We’re hoping not to get to the Ugly Truth on this reunion trip 😉🤣. Thanks, Suzanne 💕
Ha, ha, that does have a way of changing the family reunion dynamic, doesn’t it?
It looks like fun food. I am not at all adventurous when it comes to sushi!
It is fun food, and you can get sushi that doesn’t have any raw fish in it. California roll, I think it is called. Thanks, Kate 💕
Hi, Deb – Where is the picture of the three of ou enjoying sushi together (or in your moving gear or both)?! I was so looking forward to that.
The sushi does look amazing. I guessed the Crazy Girl Roll but then went with The Ugly Truth! Safe travels back home!
One of us does not want her picture taken so I will always honour that request. The hands gripping the chopsticks and picking up sushi is as close as this blog will ever get to a family reunion photo 😁. Thank you, Donna 💕
Totally understandable! I will now look closer at those hands! 😀
Moving is not fun… sharing sushi – great fun! We have neighbors who have sushi parties now and then. They put everything together, we dig in!
I need those kinds of neighbours! Thanks, Janis 💕
What? No 5 guys to end your night? Sorry couldn’t resist. Good luck with the moving. Bernie
No 5 Guys here, in Grand Forks! Thanks, Bernie 💕
Pretty sure I would have to order that so I could say it!
I’m glad you enjoyed. It looks delicious. I can’t tell you when was the last time I had sushi. And now, of course, I’m hungry for it. 🍱
That’s the way it goes, eh? 😁 Thanks, Ally 💕
Good looking sushi. I do like the crispy fried type too!
It was delicious! Thanks, Sandy 💕

Deb, The sushi looks good and their names are great fun. Thank you for hosting WOYPBC with Donna. I added my link. Happy Thanksgiving weekend to you and your sisters!
Thank you, Natalie! I am home again now, and will be sharing Thanksgiving with my daughter and son-in-law. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours too 💕
Oh yummy!!
Yummy, it was! Thanks, Natalie 💕
