Morning, friends. At present, Im sitting up in bed cuddled beneath the warmth of two blankets and the weight of a 10-pound kitty, blogging to the hum of a mini space heater at my left and the drum of...
Happiest of Mondays to you!Before substance-worthy posts commence, here is a quickie-recap of our lives, lately:01: "No Momma, get off your phone and pay attention to me."02: Watching a live ...
(Said in my best Homer Simpson voice)Did I ever mention that I straddled the Vegan/Vegetarian fence for almost twenty years, and it wasnt until a couple of years ago that I started eating meat again?...
Late Saturday, after running errands and not yet wanting to head home lest we feel cooped-up, Phil and I headed over to the South side for a little late afternoon sunshine. He was hoping to squeeze i...
There was a night not too long ago that on the surface, felt a lot like Christmas. Sure, most of it may have been aesthetics, but when I consider the gorgeous view, the wild peacocks hidden in the pe...
Happy Mothers Day to all you Mommas out there (and to those who are Mommas to fur-kids...we count, too!); I hope you all felt celebrated, appreciated and loved today. I had a special post planned for...
Words will be few on this post because I prefer to let these photos of Gods creation do the talking. Care to take a short but breathtaking charter flight over the island of Molokai? Yes? OK, then...C...
There is something to be said about the spiritual experience of the sky and the setting sun. Im not sure if its the grandiose exit of the sun that lends itself to the ceremonious occasion or if its t...
Phil is the King of spontaneity; Carpe Diem has always been his motto and I love this quality in my husband because he has opened my eyes to a life unscripted. As much as I want to encourage and supp...
It doesnt happen often, but every now and then I get a little restless living on an island that feels familiar and predictable and on some days, too small. There is a distinct sameness that makes me ...
Happy Aloha Friday! I am enjoying the first day of my 3-day weekend and its been a productive one, creatively speaking. I am holding myself accountable to my last post and am pretty pleased with myse...
Yesterday was one of those days. The kind of day that presented a perfectly packaged opportunity for growth and gained wisdom; prompting me, stretching me, testing me...and frankly, I wasnt in the mo...
Happy First of May! May Day is Lei Day here in Hawaii and its tradition to wear a lei; The Hubs was sweet to pick one up for me to wear to work today: Id love to be outside spending this beautiful fi...
Aloha, friends! Wow, its been a while - nearly five days since my last entry. I took an impromptu blogging break while I was under the weather, but I am feeling better now and its good to be here. Be...
I slept like poop last night and woke up with a splitting headache this morning, so I stayed home today to rest and nurse my sore throat (Im going on Day 5 with this throat thing...this cant be good)...
Ive been fighting some kind of bug over the last few days. My throat is sore and Im incredibly tired; I took a nice long nap yesterday in hopes Id wake up feeling rejuvenated and energetic, but no su...
Martinis. I like em dirty.* * *I have a Love/Hate relationship with sugar and booze. Few things can rival the pleasure of indulging in a slice of moist, chocolate cake, or the satisfaction of enjoyin...
Theres not much I can say that I dislike about living here; I love everything about my home-state; this island is beautiful beyond words, I love our simple, beach-y lifestyle, and really...that we ca...
Its been a fantastic (albeit busy) week, juggling work with some long-overdue and much-needed girl time. Sunshine, cocktails and this for a view:I could get used to days like these!
One of my favorite things about living on Maui are the green sea turtles that can be found peppering the shores of our beaches. They heave their enormous shells up onto the sand, basking in the warm ...
This is just a quick, drive-by post (and stream of consciousness) to say Happy Monday and good day, to you! I hope you all had a beautiful Easter weekend that nourished and filled your soul with His ...
Good Friday.{via}To those who observe, have a blessed Easter.
As a self-proclaimed over-analyzer and in my constant search for meaning, sometimes, its just nice to sit down on the couch and be entertained by mindless entertainment and humor. The kind of humor t...
Phil dutifully reads this blog, so this post is two-fold: it is an extension of my apology (we made up last night) and still, my way of sharing how you, too, can succeed at being a mean wife! Okay, I...
Late Sunday afternoon found Phil and I barefoot on a beach in Makena with an unobstructed view of Molokini in the distance. We arrived about an hour prior to sunset and lugged our camera gear across ...
Wow...April 1st, already? I am happy to report that I successfully made it through today without falling for any of the standard April Fools jokes from years past. You know the ones from close friend...

What is the fastest way to find your Zen? Why, a trip to the Lavender Farm, of course.The calming, soothing, stress-relieving and healing properties of Lavender is everything it is cracked up to be; ...
Is it April, yet? Because Im seriously beat. Beat like, I-want-to-burrow-deep-under-th e-covers-and-sleep-for-a-month , beat. Adding insult to injury, I totally woke up on the wrong side of the bed tod...
The sunshine? Its on.After almost a week and a half of skies the color of ash, angry thunderstorms and torrential downpours of rain that summoned blue jeans, sweaters and that cheap, black umbrella t...
