Sushi and Kielbasa anyone?

Our family loves sushi and Snow had said she likes it too, so last night we went to one of our favorite restaurants - The Fusion House in Methuen.  She was a bit overwhelmed by the menu so we chose a nice selection of food to share; edammame, shrimp shumai, shrimp Tum Yum soup, various sushi and sesame chicken.

The photo isn't the best but I really need to remember to take more photos since I am a blogger newbie :). I stole this one from Molly.

I love eating out at the weekend, not only because someone else does the cooking and cleaning up, but it allows us to have conversations with little distractions.  We are a typical family who are busy with activities during the week and it's hard to get everyone to eat together.  Last night we learned that Snow has a head for numbers and is thinking of majoring in Statistics, just like I did.  And with Paul having an accounting degree she certainly fits  in very nicely.  It turns our her dad also works for a Dutch company.

When the furtune cookies arrived at the end of the meal we all tried to pronounce the Chinese word on the back of the motto and Paul took the opportunity to show off some Chinese he had learned from listening to a language CD in his car.  I'm not sure how impressed Snow was but I certainly was!  Erin then announced that she had learned the word 'Kielbasa' from our recent trip to Mexico.  With puzzled faces we finally figured out she meant 'que pasa' meaning 'what's up' rather than a Polish sausage.....even Snow laughed.  Maybe Erin didn't inherit Paul's aptitude for language after all.
