Which One? & Musubi!

The 5k I ran a little while ago has given me a new goal, or motivation to keep in mind.  It's to beat my timing score at the next 5k.  So when I saw the Target ad that had 30% off lap timer sport watches I shouted "Yes!".  Perfect timing, yea?  Only problem is the colors they came in are all so darn cute, and I couldn't decide.  So why not take a consensus?  I narrowed it down to these two.


Yesterday morning had me shaking my head and wondering at the odd choice of breakfast I was making for my son at his request.  Musubi.  My son is a very picky eater.  Its hard to get him to eat the same meal as the rest of the family, but every once in a while he'll pick something that just throws me for a loop.  Musubi!  The fact that I even know how to make it is a testament to how long we've been here on Oahu, and how local we are becoming, yea?  Ono Musubi. 
It starts with Spam.  Yes, that's right.  Spam.  I always keep my pantry stock with at least two cans now.
For the musubi I slice and grill them for bit.

I lay down a piece of saran wrap, then two pieces of seaweed, followed by my Musubi Maker, rice, furikake seasoning and the delectable spam.

Another local habit.  I actually go to Costco to buy these in bulk because we go through them so fast.  Not just for Musubi's but as snacks all on their own.  We just rip open a package and eat them as is.

Once I add the ingredients together, I wrap them tight and divvy them out to my hungry family.



He would eat musubi's every day if I let him.  He loves them so much.

  4. Heather- the watches are $16.99, and its funny that Shaun said the same thing, to just keep both of them!
    And even though we watch Ghostbusters ALL the time here, both the movie and the cartoon version, that was not what was in the background. It was the ad at the beginning of a movie I was watching called "The Vow". So amazingly romantic!!! Loved it.
