I was torn between 3. I took the 3 pictures and emailed them to my friends and family. I told them to vote for 1,2,or 3 and email me back. The one with the most votes got my vote on here. I voted for Sushi! :D

What's strange is that noone ever asked me why? :? Gotta love friends and family! :D

Acceptance speech? :wink:
