Joseph's talents

In my effort to introduce Joseph more fully to the internet world, here is a post dedicated to one of Joseph's many talents: being a better cook than I am.
This morning when I got home from my last night of work he had this surprise for me! He'd made them last night because I always wanted to buy them premade from the grocery store and he hates to spend a lot of money on things he can make for cheaper. They were very delicious. And, even better, Joseph doesn't really like California rolls so I get to eat them all. He's a good husband.

And here are a couple of other unique facts about Joseph:
He ALWAYS checks the expiration date on the milk that he's buying. Or the milk that he's about to drink. I guess when milk is as big a part of your life as it is for him, that's important. Emily is following in his milk consumption footsteps. When she has a sippy cup of whole milk she swigs it so enthusiastically she looks like Napoleon Dynamite drinking his Gatorade after his dance groove practice session. Today the bottom shelf of our fridge broke because I put too many gallons of milk on it.
Joseph LOVES checking the mail. It's one of the highlights of his day, even when it's only junkmail, like today when we only got one letter and it was a credit card offer for Janet Cooper.
He was recently called as choir director in our ward. I call him the choir master. He's very good at it and the members of the choir really like him. He composes his own accompaniments and arrangements.

He's a pretty talented guy.

No worries. Leif is a much better cook than I am ANY day. I've learned to get over it... one day I'll improve.

Those California rolls look great. I get suckered into buying them at HEB sometimes and they're so good. I should learn to make them too.

He's very talented, I agree. You are too!

That is amazing, I love sushi but have always been too scared to try them. I cannot believe how cheap your gas is, I am moving to Texas!

You absolutely HAVE to check that expiration date! Why would you buy milk that expires in a week, when right behind it there is milk that expires in 2 weeks for the same price? Milk expiration dates are very, very, very important.
