The Annual Sushi Fest~~ On May 12, 2009 each NSU family got together and competed to gain the titles of 1)Best Tasting Sushi ,2) Best Family-Themed Sushi, 3) Most Traditional Sushi, 4) Biggest Sushi. My family's name was "Kumagumi", which means "Bear" and "Gummy" (like gummy bears, but also GUMI like group/clan). Our family color was green so we added green dye to the rice, layered in some fried SPAM, layered in fried egg, and covered it all in the shape of a green bear. And...we WON!
