In 1989, at the age of 5, this little white girl from a small northern California farm town dragged her parents to the sushi joint inside the only strip mall in town. It was my birthday and I was stoked. I ordered 6 tekka makki rolls and chowed down on my mom's sashimi. My parents were somewhere between proud and baffled. I was still hungry, ordered six more rolls, and wondered how birthday pizza parties and ice cream cake were ever going to live up to this. [It didn't. 26 years, and sushi is still my birthday dinner of choice.]
