I am SUCH a SLACKER! Sheesh! No excuses. Just lazy.Our veggie garden, as limited as it is right now, is going well. Here's a pepper I picked. Considering that bell peppers cost about $5 per pound at the supermarket here, it's a good choice to supplement the home food supply. We've also got cabbage and peas growing nicely.
Friday was Good Friday. Thank goodness that venerable institution known as the New York Stock Exchange is so old school. They were closed. So Ron had the day off. We ventured over to Kona for a Costco run, thinking we would find short lines and thin crowds. Wrong. Apparently, lots of people in Hawaii have Good Friday off. Go figure. Anyway, we chose sushi for our lunch and happened into a place called Kenichi Pacific. We learned it was actually a chain, serving a Hawaii roll, an Austin roll - names taken from locations where they have restaurants. The review: so-so. It was kinda OK though not the most authentic sushi. The place was also way overpriced. After spending $60 we both walked out of the joint pretty sure we'd be hungry again in a couple of hours.
Over the weekend we planted 13 more coffee trees. The planting went easily, since it was an area that Ron was actually able to till. We also tilled a patch to plant corn. That'll go in this week.
Meanwhile, the tea cuttings are still alive in their tiny pots. That's a very good thing.The weather's been tolerable. That too is a good thing. All in all, life's OK this week.
A hui hou. Aloha!
