(b) "Personally, the word 'sushi' reminds me of Nigiri, which is 'a small rice ball with fish, shellfish, etc on the top. Some of the most common ones are tuna, shrimp, eel, squid, octopus and fried egg.'
(i)
The author was referring to "onigiri," not "nigirizushi."  See sushi

Eventually, for nigirizushi one hand is not enough (unlike onigiri).

(c) Japanese-English dictionary:
* nigiru 握る 【にぎる】 (v): "to clutch"  (The "nigiri" is noun same as maki. See next. Nigiru or nigiri describes how onigiri is made, by forming a rice ball in the palm of a clenched hand.)
* maku 巻く(P); 捲く 【まく】 (v): "to roll"
* futo-i 太い 【ふとい】 (adj): "[a person is] fat; thick"
* takenoko 筍   (Literally takenoko is  竹の子, where take and ko are Japanese pronunciations of respective kanji 竹 and 子.)
(d) "When I looked up 'How to make sushi,' in English, I found hand-rolled sushi, which I think many people in Waco are more familiar with. I can make hand-rolled sushi, which is a cone made of nori seaweed and filled with sushi rice, seafood and vegetables."

(section 2 Types, section 2.3 Makizushi (巻き寿司, "rolled sushi"): • Temaki (手巻, "hand roll" [no photo]) )

(e) "I used to make hand-rolled sushi in Japan during the Japanese holiday 'Setsubun.' On this day, there's a unique tradition where everyone involved must eat an Ehomaki, a thick sushi roll, whole in silence. It's said that eating the roll will bring good luck in the new year. This holiday is in place for the tradition of driving away demons and welcoming Lunar New Year."
(i) Setsubun  節分
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setsubun
("In its association with the Lunar New Year, Setsubun, though not the official New Year [which since Meiji Restoration has been Jan 1 according to Gregory calendar")

The ja.wikipedia.org for 節分 states that 節分 is the day before start of a, any season (立春・立夏・立秋・立冬). In other words, there are four 節分 a year.  In Japan, spring begins on 立春: Feb 3 or 4. However, in US spring begins on vernal equinox 春分: Mar 20-22.

(section 2 Types, section 2.3 Makizushi (巻き寿司, "rolled sushi"): • Futomaki (太巻): an ingredient is takenoko (bamboo shoots) [see definition at (c) above]   • ehōmaki 惠方巻: "a particular kind of futomaki in its uncut cylindrical form * * * The typical ingredients include kanpyō [干瓢 or 乾瓢: dried strips of hulu]" gourd)
