In Search of Sakura
We booked our next trip to Japan. I say that casually, like my heart didn’t immediately do that little flip it always does when Japan enters the conversation. Like I haven’t already started imagining quiet mornings, train windows, and the feeling of being exactly where I’m supposed to be. This time, though, we’re doing something Continue reading

Taking the Scenic Route
I didn’t disappear. I just took the scenic route. Sometimes that looks like a quiet waterfall in the middle of a journey. A pause you didn’t plan for, but needed all the same time. These past few years for me, life happened. Quietly. Loudly. Beautifully. And somewhere between becoming and unbecoming, I needed to live Continue reading

I love breakfast. I absolutely do and in addition to coffee, I have to have it every morning or I have no energy for the rest of the day. Sometimes I might also get a little grouchy. But I don’t like to have it too early in the morning. The best breakfast is eaten after 10am Continue reading

Memoirs of a “Geisha” – A Maiko Makeover Experience in Kyoto
Just over a week ago we returned home to Hawaii after a 10-day vacation in Japan. From Osaka to Kyoto to Tokyo then back to Osaka again. Even with the threatening typhoon Lan and stormy days during the trip, it was still oh-so-amazing! To me, the most memorable experience was the opportunity to be a Continue reading

The Pizza Corner
Love pizza? Love poke? I do. Then how about a poke pizza??!!! A wha-at?!!! Just what is a POKE PIZZA, Miss Honey? A poke pizza (pronounced POH-keh, not POH-kay, or POH-ki, and definitely not poke) is an exotic fusion of Hawaii’s favorite pupu (appetizer) and yes, pizza. I fell in love at first sight– It was also, Continue reading
