In 2014, I visited an islander friend who is from Kauai Hawaii. Living in Canada with 4 strong, different seasons where the colours of tall trees are always dark green and or fall colours of red and orange become the usual… Going to this tropical gem was like seeing colour for the first time. The Ocean blue is such an incredible colour, trees grow 200-300 feet or taller with giant blossoms of flowers in various colours wildly dangling down the vines. Roosters crow at all hours of day and night and wander the island like squirrels or another wild animal. The most incredible thing to me; was not just the abundance of nature, beauty and warmth but the people. These people are some of the most generous people I have ever met. Taking me in as family for the time I spent, I was called Auntie to the neighbors children respectfully. People openly speak the truth, and their opinions with no filters and welcome tourists and strangers to their island. Talking to shop keepers was like talking to long lost friends. I discovered my love for Thai food, previously I thought Thai food was just “OK”, but going to Kauai, made me just ADORE it. I went to Mema (808)823-0899, 4-369 Kuhio Highway, Kapaa, Hawaii. There are many types of fruit I had never seen in my life that grow on this island. When I first stepped of the plane, the lady who welcomes you said “Welcome Home!”. When I arrived I did feel like I was home. It is a strange feeling when you feel at home...

Chinese new year story I had the opportunity to watch the Chinese parade. It was beautiful. As I was searching for images of rabbits I came upon the mythical creature Jackalope. It is apparently a rabbit with deer horns and a pheasants tale....

This new years went with out a “New years resolution”. Why do I want to plan something that I may or may not complete or do? I do so much as it is, I took a break from “doing stuff”. So on with my muse’s… I love this song, its cute and adorable. Pocket digital cameras cute! I have this pink phone on order… It’s so geeky, like “Save By The Bell” when Zack had his “new” giant cell phone… Rumi is a poet from the 13th century. I love how in his poetry he expresses emotions and things that people still feel and go through today. Well there are some exceptions like when he talks about emperors… What sort of emperor would we meet and talk about today? His work is translated from Persian, it translates beautifully. There is a whole line of wearable food rings! Love it! I started the new year hanging out by the fire with friends. It was so relaxing and beautiful. Imagine your phone is turned off and the only people who can get a hold of you are the people you are talking to in the same room by the fire. Drinking, tea, hot chocolate, wine, what ever you like! It was nourishing. I’ve been going to a lot of dinner parties at friends houses. Going out can be fun, but enjoying friends homes and their company has been a great way to be social while the cold winter makes me want to hibernate. Great things about dinner parties is, there is no last call, you can hear people talk, you can...
