If you're looking for all things Hawaii (and local) in Seattle, this is a good place to find it. From aloha shirts and lei to poi, Portuguese sausage, li hing mui, mochi crunch, chocolate mac nuts, and Kauai Kookies, the store has all the creature comforts of home. The ambiance of the store reminds me of a cross between Hilo Hattie and a local grocery store. Some good stuff here!

Classic design from T&C Surf Designs! I remember having this shirt YEARS ago! One of my all time favorites.

Here's a view of downtown Honolulu I've not seen before in real life. This shot was taken from Sand Island State Park, across Honolulu Harbor, with my iPhone. You can see Aloha Tower on the left. So peaceful and beautiful from this vantage point. Fireworks must look amazing from here on Fourth of July and New Year's Eve.

...and I guess I have to agree. Jabbey (black/white boy) and Tikki (tabby girl) are both 20 lbs. After today’s visit to the vet, they are now on a special diet cat food and need to lose 4 lbs. in a year. This is gonna be fun...

My wife's uncle has the most bountiful backyard. Today we raided his lychee tree...with his permission of course. The fruit is so sweet and the seed inside is tiny. Locals in Hawaii know this is a good situation. Yum! Time to go eat some now...

Taking a break from the Honolulu Family Fun Fair to watch the boats come into Ala Wai Boat Harbor. Beautiful day.

Friends brought over this chocolate haupia from Yama's Fish Market and it's the most sinful dessert I've tasted in a while. Rich, dark chocolate, coconut, deccadent, goodness. Never had this before! My new favorite dessert right now. Oh yeah, the sweet potato haupia pie was good too! ;-) Highly recommend you give this a try!

My brother-in-law Glen made the Ulua on the cake out of fondant for Kelly's dad's birthday party tonight. Pretty crazy, huh? I call him the Ace of Cakes in our family.
The cake itself is from Sam's Club, but all the decoration and trimmings are custom done in their home kitchen. Pretty damn cool! I've suggested he should open up a bake shop. Agree?
