*Better than a sushi bar* -- I used the soft cream cheese that comes in a tub, and this was so easy to make. I'm not a pro at rolling inside-out rolls (rice on the outside) so made some the regular way too. I used pink soy wrappers, color-coordinated with the pink salmon, for the Think Pink Tag Game In Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness.
