First Video!

Leave a reply

Cheehoo! It took me a while, but I finally figured out how to film, edit & post video action of my adventures on to YouTube. This video is the first of many! From now on I will attempt to video all the fun & education that is my daily life for all of you to enjoy.

Apparently being passionate about what you do & who you are is admirable & entertaining, so I shall make sure to include plant knowledge, culinary insights & general overall inspiration for those looking to heal themselves, have balance or just plain enjoy life!

Ask & Receive

Leave a reply

I love my life…

That statement may not be profound for most of you, but for me, it means the world. The majority of my life I did not want to be me. Living within my own skin was like being trapped inside a publicly-displayed glass box just sitting there in the sun while I screamed, going unnoticed by the sea of apathetic people around me.

Er’y Day’s A Weekend

Leave a reply

Everyday is a weekend round these parts. Why’s that; you ask? Well, when it’s rainbows & sprinkles on the inside; everything around ya just sparkles!

What we see is what we get & I am happy to know this before the age of 30. The busier I get the, the happier I am. This is not to say I have the tale-tail signs of being a workaholic, I’m just enthusiastic about getting paid for what I love to do.

Heal Thy Self

Leave a reply

As the flu makes its rounds & so do the April (now leading into May) showers, we all take the time we need to heal ourselves.

Sometimes, we can use a little help though maybe some fresh orange juice, hot soup or just a ton of rest. Today, inspired by the sicky-season & my desire to camp once more along Hawaii’s pristinely captivating & healing valleys & shores is what I call “Super Hawaiian Surprise Love Pie.”

Appreciate Joy

Leave a reply

What joy it is to find our way… How had we lost it in the first place? Well, the infinite distractions, cumbersome logistics & life as we know it came around & diverted our focus, my friends & foes.

Ah, but as the sun sparkled through the foliage so high in the sky, the joy was rekindled yesterday as I sat enjoying the luxurious waterfall I called home.

Beginnings & Failure

Leave a reply

Today was rough… Internal flares of Crohn’s are far worse than the external ones: the rashes, angular chelitis & other questionably temporary skin ailments, that everyone can see & recognize as a symptom of illness.

They feel like defeat. Failure. Crashing down a mountain that took decades to climb. It basically sucks. Although these occur far less than before, maybe once every 3-4 months, they still are surprisingly… Defeating.

Custom Love

Leave a reply

Lots of custom love going on around here but a bit of relaxation too. It’s just about Spring time so I’ve been dedicated to cleaning house & business, creating some new flavors & just enjoying some time to myself, an art I am learning still yet!

The next newsletter is in the works, so is some video action, & possibly more social media posts. For today though I smile & embrace a day to catch up at a slower pace than usual. Plus enjoy the many photos I’ve taken over the past few weeks.

Spring Break

2 Replies

Spring break for most folks means bikinis, cocktails & fun, fun, fun! Then there’s the folks that tend to your household & pets’ needs while you are away. That person is yours truly, as I moonlight as a house-sitter/animal-sitter.

Although its been a long couple of weeks of quadruple walks twice a day & lots of chicken stock & kale smoothies for hungry pups, I found some time to have a little fun.

Fur Flippin’

Sunday hike… That part alone was enough to make me smile! Then we get down to the destination & o.m.g… Amazingly spectacular waterfalls! Yes plural, many!!!

Na O’hia Falls also known as Kalihi Ice Ponds was the perfect playground for taking water playing shots today & of course jumping from the sheer cliff rocks on the side.
