Witty sentiment for a Sushi/Japanese theme B'Day card.

August 29, 2013 6:22 PM

It's my partner's birthday next Saturday and I have a variety of small gifts on a Japanese cooking theme. His favourite food is Japanese and the main gift is a class at an excellent Asian cooking school. I found the PERFECT card for him which has sushi on the front and says Happy Birthday in Japanese inside. I want to write something funny or clever, that is sushi or Japanese food related but I can't think of anything. Please help me!

Best answer: My bf got my a card that had a picture of a bowl of soup and the caption was "You make miso happy". I thought it was adorable!

or use all of these, but instead of using the word - draw a little picture so he has to guess, sort of like a rebus

Best answer: A picture of a piece of sushi. Draw a bottle of soy. "I'm soy in love with you. Happy Birthday"
