I’m packing today, getting ready to head to Seattle to visit family for the holidays. Thought it’d be a good idea to “bottle up” some warm Hawaii vibes to help keep me cozy while I’m there .. hope you enjoy….. A few holiday sightings around town here in Kailua-Kona. …and homemade musubi… better than you…
