Aloha Ahi Ahi UFOhana! Sorry to be late with this posting, it’s been another one of those . . . you know. Anyway, this week’s theme was suggested by Brudda Bu, “Songs of Royalty” or Royal Songs or Songs fit for a King or Queen or . . . anyway, you get the idea. I guess you could apply this quite easily to the Kau Kau as well Food fit for a King/Queen/Royalty?

FINALLY! I'm feeling well enough to make the trip to Marin. We've been very sick in Napa and not willing to share our germs. Siera is still pretty sick and won't be coming along, Next time maybe...
Can't decide what food to bring, I have the makings for Paella or Mochi, probably flip a coin Thursday night.
