It’s summertime, and unless you live in the Arctic or have spent the last 6 weeks under your covers with the A/C blasting, you know it’s getting super hot. Something that’s always left me perplexed is that the go-to summer side dish is potato salad. Hey, if you love it, that’s fine, but the idea…… Continue reading On The Side: Marinated Cucumber Salad
Well…. it’s been a while. My instincts are to write a long explanation of what got me sidetracked and how I took some time to think about what I want to do next here.

I’ve taken a position as the Honolulu ambassador for an online…… Continue reading Eggs In Purgatory (With A Few Friends)
I am in full-on holiday mode here in Hawaii.
