Nothing fancy here. Just our first meal of the new year. No, we didn’t consume a post-midnight feast. Instead, we got up early, as we usually do, did our 3-mile walk to watch the sunrise from the beach, and then came back and made breakfast. The egg yolks are the teaser. Just click to see [...]

We have eaten well on this short trip to Hilo. Yesterday evening, after a successful media symposium wrapped up at UH Hilo (bravo to Tiffany Edwards Hunt for pulling this all together), we joined others for libations back at the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel.

It’s like this a lot of nights. We’re driving back from town, coming over the Pali. On weekdays, it’s often a little late, a few minutes after 6 p.m. I’m driving. Meda is thinking ahead to the big question–What’s for dinner? We have choices. We can make a stop in Kaneohe and shuffle around like [...]
