Happy Birthday, Sushi Day – Hajime’s Hotate, and a Contest
Three years. 200 posts. 2000+ comments. 500,000 visitors. 1.5 million pageviews. It’s been quite a ride, here on Sushi Day.

Well, it’s 12:38pm Hawaiian time, and I’ve been up since 3am. So I think that puts my bedtime right at about 6pm. Today I had so much to do toward getting caught up with my long-lost island life that I didn’t even fight my early morning jetlag. I welcomed it and got to work going through mail, unpacking, starting laundry,...
