Rommel picked me up at the Honolulu airport early August 4th and greeted me with an orchid lei. We’d only been apart 4 days, but it felt like much longer (isn’t that sappy?) That night we went to Paradise Cove for a classic luau, for which Rommel had bought us matching Hawaiian outfits So, just [...]

Rommel, Ate Julie, and the girls all arrived safely in Honolulu last night. Didn’t realize that Hawaii was 3 hours behind us so kept calling and texting Rommel super early this morning our time, which was like 6am their time. Oops. *Shrug* Rommel finally called back and I had him send me some photos of [...]

Only 17 days! We are staying at a Ko Olina condo resort on the beach. There are tons of picture online of the resort so it’s hard to see what the place will really look like. It all looks amazing. Seems really man-mad, and not very natural Hawaii . . . but I’m okay with [...]

SO I found this book at a thrift store last time I visited my family in Sacramento and was attracted to the title: It’s basically a list of things that make the author happy; a list she (Dr. Barbara Ann Kipfer) started as a kid and compiled over the next 40+ years. Pretty neat concept, [...]

Beach Weddings

Pretty I’d like a destination wedding, but very few of my friends and family can afford to come celebrate with us. Rommel’s family could, but then it would just be one big Rommel party where I felt unrepresented and lonely. Maybe we can have a beach wedding to renew our vows on an anniversary. Then [...]

Lobsterfest at Half Moon Bay

Sunday is Rommel’s only day off of work so it’s a sacred day for us. Last week we went to Half Moon Bay to eat lunch at Sam’s Chowder House, a restaurant that the Food Network recommended for its lobster roll. I imagined it to be some sort of sushi, but it actually looked more [...]
