saturday sushi

               

Okay, how cute is this? A sushi costume for your dog!

You have your choice of toppings, and if you like, a different one for each foot.

Of course, nothing better to top off a sushi-inspired outfit than a cucumber salad bib. Just wish they made one in my size ☺!

No surprise, now I’m hungry. What’s your favorite sushi?

After all, her sweet and scrumptious blog is where I get my daily sugar fix. There, I feast on delicious interviews with bakers and pastry chefs, read about fun baking experiments, learn about bakeries all over the country, and of course, drool over the neverending stream of recipes, stunning photographs, and whimsical Cuppie art.
