It's funny you should mention sushi - I just sent a link to my husband on a sushi restaurant we drive past all the time and have never tried. A friend of mine recently went and now I must have sushi tonight!

Cis, I didn't want to start off with the raw fish, so I googled California Rolls and found this site: American-Style Sushi In addition to California Rolls, it has ideas for other sushi on the bottom right as well as listing things you need. Also, Sharon shared the recipe for a GREAT sushi roll here: Sharon and Jean's Sushi
A final note, I found a powdered black vinegar mix that worked GREAT! A rice steamer would have been nice, but I had no trouble making the rice in a pot the regular way. Good luck and have fun!!!!
Oh, I forgot...I think I've finally decided on dinner. I've been craving Chicken Piccata lately, so I think that's dinner tonight.

How about spreading out the rice, placing a hot dog onto it, running a line of ketchup along the hot dog, then rolling up the whole thing in some kind of thin bread (maybe a crepe - something other than nori). THERE would be some American "sushi." LOL!

Thanks, Daph, that will really get the ball rolling for me. Still undecided about the rice cooker. In a way it seem convenient to let it cook itself while I do other prep. I see Walmart has a cute red one from Oster, and I see the Aroma that Erin has. They are not expensive. But I wonder what they mean by 3 Cup capacity?? Three cups raw yielding @ 6 Cups cooked?? Anyone know?

I made The Pioneer Woman's Fancy Macaroni - Macaroni and cheese with carmalized onions and bacon. How can you go wrong with that! It is like a heart attack and 20 lbs in one bowl!

I did the simple tomato tart with bacon - the cheese was a cheddar jack shredded mix with jalapenos, chipotles, and habaneros. Jeeze it was good! A little cucumber white radish salad alongside was perfect.

I would like to know that also, just in case I decide to get one. Does anyone know?
