Sushi! Wolfe and I went shopping at VV Boutique, well VV Boutique is what I call Value Village, a chain of second hand stores.  He hates to go, but relinquished to my pleadings and came with me, I like to pile the lingerie and shoes into his arms while I rifle through the racks.  Then we went for sushi afterwards.

But back to VV Boutique, I scored TWO maid aprons, which I like to collect, because when/if I get service submissives in, sissy maids, they are invaluable, I can also use them for photo shoots.  I find the only place I can get them is second hand, and then, they come cheap, one was 99 cents, and the other was 1.99$.  One is a light blue sheer polyester with lace trim! woo!... it SCREAMS sissy maid.  The other is the real cotton lace trimmed maid apron that has a split bib and big lush ties in the back, very service like, yet still a little frilly and very much a -maid- apron.  

I also scored for 3.99$ a blue satin with black lace teddy that is tackily pornographic, and therefore perfect for what I do <laugh>.  

Lets see, what else, oh yes, at 99 cents a 6 foot long white plastic garment back that zips top to bottom, can you say body bag for kinky play.

And a pair of sensible black shoes, I have too many to count, at 3.99$, who can resist immaculate Brazilian or in this case Italian black leather, not I.

So with tax the whole haul was 13-14$.  I was happy happy.  Decided we should celebrate and hiked to a nearby sushi joint.  Living in Vancouver Canada has the likely hood that where ever you are in town, there will be a sushi bar in walking distance.  

This place I had only been to once before, about 13 years ago with a Japanese artist friend of mine, Noboru Sawai, who I used to model for.  He's a very talented Japanese Canadian printmaker, and I used to love to pose for the photos he would later use as inspiration points to compose his prints from.  I have three of his works, all of them unabashedly of me.  Not that I'm recognizable in them.  At any rate, needless to say, he knows good sushi, and this place is fantastic.  The tuna was melt in your mouth perfect, the flavor exquisite, and we ate a shameless plethora of it.  The salmon was almost equally good, and it didn't take long for us to glut ourselves.  Happy tummies, the late dinner cost us only a little over double what the shopping did.  

We'll definitely be going back.

I used to, many years ago, go to sushi bars regularly enough, sitting at the bar, to develop a close rapport with the sushi chefs, which resulted in a mutual exchange of buying them drinks, and getting gifts of rare delicacies.  This is a relationship I realized tonight, I may be missing in my life right now, one I'd dearly like to cultivate again.  Wolfe and I have decided we'll return to this place in particular, since the owner is a very skilled Japanese fellow, the same that served me 13 years ago, and we'll see.  If he's a traditional sort of chap, it shall take a couple of more visits, a couple of rounds of sake, and I'll be sampling new flavors in a few months.  If not we'll just have to go try to ply other Japanese sushi chef's elsewhere.  Who knows, maybe I'll run into Noboru again, it's been a while. 

(In case you were wondering, I have at least 7 different sushi backgrounds collected, so far <grin>)
