Passage:
"My mother made fancy triangle-shaped onigiri, with seaweed and pickled plums, but I just made the basic kind. Someday when I got older, I would have to learn make to fancy onigiri too, or nobody would marry me."

Response:
It is interesting how much the Japanese culture influences Katie. She thinks that if she isn't able to one day make "fancy onigiri," she won't get married. It is obvious that there is a lot of culturally pressure on her, because when one marries another it is not about skill it is about love.
