I am sure Aya's dumplings are better than any that I could make or buy.
And besides, they will come with all the fun of Sushifest, which makes them taste all the better!

Woot! We're gonna go. Cleo just bought airfare and I'll drive over from Sacramento. I've only been to the Joshua Tree Fest. Actually found my SushiFest t-shirt last week too.

Sweet! I wanna talk to you about kayaks. I'm thinking about getting another and boating again.
And I was just about to bump this thread. Between ST and Facebook there's 100+ folks "going" to the event. My list shows seven who are truly committed. The hard cap this year is 60 and no more unless we find another professional sushi chef, another sushi bar, and a few more tents, etc. etc..
So over the next week or two it's time to pay for your spot.
Also, speaking of sushifest t-shirts, I'll have the new version available. They are already printed, most are men's medium or large (some XL some S), one or two women's, and one or two in white - otherwise black. $20 but I'm not asking for that until we make the exchange (unless you want one of the ones in short supply).
Furthermore, if anyone would like a jar of my Ginger/Tataki sauce let me know ASAP. I can also make the hot ginger/sesame oil available as well as my "eel" sauce. If there's other items that I use that you'd like like the yuzu vinegar I can order that for you when I do my dry/wet foods order.
I also have real wasabi grated and frozen for $20/lb if that interests anyone.
And one other thing - either we're going to have an unusually small event or it'll be a blowout. Either way I expect to have little room once the thing kicks off. Rumor has been spreading but it was my observation from last year that a lot of folks heard about it but didn't know enough to get the info at the website. Showing up day-off will probably get you turned away and i really don't want that. So just let anyone know to hit up this thread, sushifest group on crackbook or http://www.sushifest.org

Is this moosemath? It's $35 per day :) Cuz I was about to ask which night are you in for.
(that just made me laugh at my own self)
Speaking of such - if you're only interested in one night that's totally fine. Things you may wish to consider. Most folks opt for Saturday night as it's a bigger party. Which means friday is a little less crowded and thus less elbowing at the sushi bar. That said, we're going to have two and a half sushi bars this time around and hopefully a drink bar as well. 120 angry chopsticks pointed your way is not a pretty sight.

Paypal can suck it. WTF.
They locked my account because of all the personal (friends/family) transactions. They thought I was selling tickets to something.
But I explained what I was doing - saying my friends are making food contributions for a sushi dinner we're having and I don't make any money on this.
So moving forward please do me this favor. When you paypal me if that's what you choose to do (you could send a check if you like) please write in the note something like.
"Here you go my Friend... here is my portion of the food contribution for our two night sushi dinner with the rest of our friends".

Can't agree more. They shut me down because I had "hit my limit". WTF? I paid every transaction on time. They wanted me to give them my bank account numbers. Something smelled fishy (pun intended)..
Will never use them again

^^^^ HAHHA They did the same to me even though every transaction was paid through my linked bank account. I wonder if some people have done money laundering using pay pal. They said I had exceeded my "monthly" limit even though every transaction was debited from my bank account automatically. Anyways, it was a blessing in disguise because I had gone nuts on some expensive eBay stuff.

Elizabeth and I are out. With so may folks wanting to go and me probably not able to climb anyhow, I'd just as soon make room for others. We'll be attending the Vedauwoo sushifest.

That's too bad, Grug. But not climbing doesn't help. And Woo is much closer. Room at this rate won't be a problem.

I'm going to miss it by one day. I'm picking up a friend from Armenia at DIA and won't be able to get to IC until Sunday. Have fun everyone and if some of you are still around I'll be camping at the Cottonwoods.

Jim, be sure to find us because I guarantee you there will be sushi on sunday night as well. Last year we had a bit of fish left over as well as a bunch of sake. There was maybe 8 of us just having sushi for dinner. quiet and no expectations. also no charge.
I'll be on a 10 or 12 day road trip and able to relax a lot lot more. Hoping to climb as well but I'm in no climbing shape. South Sixshooter has my name written all over it. Will probably hang out in the creek until tuesday or wednesday after SF.
