I know it is only August. But Kmart already had Halloween on display. The boys love looking at all the macabre offerings and creeping each other out...

I love Halloween! How come they never had such cool stuff when I was a kid? All we had were cardboard skeletons, witches and black cats....skull candles...plastic masks and crummy costumes...and those black and orange crepe streamers...

We never celebrated Halloween in England when I was growing up. They do now I think. My son loved Halloween when he was little and still does. Rememebr those trips to K-Mart to look at all the costumes. Thanks for bringing back all those good memories.

I was Blessed to have been able to participate in all five stations and listen to the expressions of Passion and Spirituality.  Before we commenced, I found myself standing next to a large five-foot by four-foot original painting by the late Master Artist Herb Kane of the Battle of the Nu'uanu Pali. I had always seen the smaller versions but to see the detail up close was awe inspiring and humbling. Herb's research and 'ike were astounding. I absorbed every detail. The faces. The mahiole.

Not Quite Potatoes...

My boys thought these were potatoes and asked me why they were all stuck together. I explained to them that they were Hasu, also known as Lotus Root. And that they were $2.28 a pound.

Actually I knew nothing about them but I read the sign and bluffed as much as I could because as a Daddy, you want your kids to think you know about everything in the world so they feel safe and secure. The unknown can be frightening...
