In case you didn't know, Justin and I are pretty much famous. Okay, I'm kidding. But we are going to be in a sushi commercial! On Monday, after I went to quit my job, Justin called and asked if we could meet up at a new sushi place called Ninja Sushi for lunch. We had a babysitter at home with Channing so it was a fun lunch date. This sushi place just barely opened down the street from where we live in Idaho Falls. Justin and I both really like sushi. When we got to the sushi place we saw there was a camera guy and one other guy directing it. Turns out they're from Local News 8.
After we ordered our food we sat down to wait for our rolls and teriyaki bowl to be made. Then an employee came over and handed us utensils and said "try it!" He was pointing to a plate of sushi behind us. We thought, sure! I don't turn down fresh free sushi. Then we realized they were going to film us eating for the commercial. Luckily I have a lot experience being in commercials...okay not really. But my cousins and I did make a pretty great brownie commercial one time.
They told us to look happy and look like we were enjoying our food. The sushi was really good, but I don't know if my face really showed it. I needed a lesson from Guy Fieri on how to eat food and make a "wow" face at the same time. I learned it's really hard to eat sushi daintily. You pretty much have to put the whole piece in your mouth and pretend like you're mouth isn't stuffed with sushi.
After that we went back to our seats and the food we ordered was ready. We secretly hoped the owners would give a coupon or gift card for making "yum!" faces into the camera...but they didn't. :( Oh well, we got a fun lunch date and a funny experience.
We don't know when the commercial will be on and we don't have cable anyways. But the director guy gave us his card to call and find out when it will be on. We'll have to figure out where we can watch it! I think it'll be hilarious.

So glad you could use the experience of our brownie commercial for something. You were meant for stardom.
