About

I love food, I love to eat, I love to cook, I HATE to clean it all up!
Thank you William Howard Livens for inventing the modern-day dishwasher.

I am retired and currently doing what I have always wanted to do, I am a true blue Homemaker.

My DH and I moved from our lifelong home in Hawaii to Arizona. We worked very hard, as most people do, so that we could indulge in life. We are having a blast!

I started this blog so that I could share some of the things that we do, what we put on our table, where we go, what we see, everything. Well, within reason of course.

I hope that you’ll come back often, maybe leave a comment or just say …

ALOHA!

Baby Doni

    I wish I had learn more about Hawaii during the year that I lived there. The one thing I learned to appreciate immediately was their music.
    One Friday after going to the bank where the teller told my it was mu’i mu’i Friday, she explained it to me. Then my son came home from school early in the day (before lunch) and when I yelled at him for skipping school, he informed me that “the surf was up”. I learned two Hawaiian traditions.
