A Ziggy Cartoon
Last night I saw a funny Ziggy cartoon. Ziggy said, “I ate 7 Happy Meals, and I am still depressed.”
The Daniel Diet
Last night I met Dr. Shintani who wrote “The Hawaii Diet”. He gave a faith based seminar at a local church here in Honolulu and the topic was the food Daniel ate during that particular time in biblical history. Now, I am not Christian, but I could really appreciate that there were so many people [...]
Recommendations?
Since I have been back here, I have been trying to generate interest in macrobiotics. This led me to make a business card, some flyers, and has me driving all around the island and on the web with outer islands trying to either give cooking lessons or offer services as a private cook. Hey, this [...]

Had a GREAT night in the organic garden. Thisshangri la is directly behind the Chinese Cemetary, in the back of Manoa Valley. Interesting feng shui, but the garden and the people seem to be thriving. They felt the Chinese chose the cemetary for the auspicious site about100+ years ago and for that reason, it doesnt [...]
Macrobiotic Meetup in Manoa
Today we had our first Vegan/Macrobiotic Meetup Group activity in Manoa at Kathy Maddux’s Great Life Bento place. At first I thought it would be just Kathy and myself, but I was so happy to see 3 more people come, all of whom are vegan. It was a lot of fun for me to talk [...]
Fish Pond
P4070124 Originally uploaded by macro808. Here is a sacred fish pond from the Place of Refuge on the Big Island. The Hawaiians raised fish in ponds like this one, a significant part of their culture. However, today, there are very few active fish ponds left. On Oahu, the most significant one is now Pearl Harbor.
