Good morning!

It's warm today and Trishy decides to have a strawberry smoothie

Man, we got south winds today and that means VOG! [8D] Yuck! My sinuses act up when the VOG comes, although not as bad lately.

Well, it's pretty quiet now on the island. It will be another "take it easy day". One day, I will plan a big party here. Now if only I could get that computer. [:o]



randyclay -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/3/2005 8:14:42 PM)

Trishy,

I personally will try the mango smoothie (Hayden mangoes please) and Kona Coffee parfait.[8D]

Be glad you only visit the Big Island, vog is MUCH worse over here......sometimes[8|]


Still thinking of buying that Mac????[;)]

Hi Randy,

I love your avatar! Did you take that photo?

Common mangoes are really the best- only they are not so common anymore! [:o]

'Sigh' Me wants a Mac but it's expensive. Gotta still save up.

So... how have you been Randy? How is your week going?

Trishy

Hi Trishy. Can I have an apricot smoothie when you've got a spare moment, please?

How are you today?

But ofcourse! Great choice Trish.

I'm doing great today. We have south winds (we call it Kona winds here) and there's some VOG today. Killer on the sinuses. [:@]



randyclay -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/3/2005 9:52:51 PM)

Didn't take that pic. I get them from an astronomy website. They have a different one every day, some taken on Mauna Kea, and I keep the ones I like on my HD. It's kinda neat that I can upload avatars on this new "Crosswalk". astropix

Weeks been going great, how you stay been?

Used to love to eat mango with "bug juice". Know what I'm talkin' about, or is that a neighbor island thing? Small kid time we used to eat plenty guava and starfruit and catch opae in the stream near out house.

This week is going by faster. I like that. [:D] No... what's bug juice? It must be a neighbor island thing. Tell me what it is and maybe I would know.



Mrs.Above_All -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/4/2005 1:47:43 PM)

Good morning/evening everyone! (((((((((((((GROUP HUG)))))))))))

What exciting thing is God doing for you today?



randyclay -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/4/2005 2:22:36 PM)

Boy, I need to proof read my typing. We used to catch opae in the stream near OUR house, not the "out" house. [8|]

Bug juice is shoyu, vinegar and sugar. Mix it up and dip in whatever. Rots your teeth but taste ono!!!!![;)]

ROFLOL! I didn't notice that. That's too funny! I would hope you didn't catch it near the outhouse! [sm=silly.gif]

Ah yes, that I know. But I didn't know you call it bug juice.

So lonely! [sm=icon_smile_sing.gif]



cherish405 -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/5/2005 8:32:44 AM)

Hi Trishy.

I've never heard of bug juice before. Never heard of shoyu, and I don't like vinegar, so I think I'm safe. Never heard of opae either. You catch it in your ouThouse? Um, I think I'll pass on that too. If it's fish, I'll still pass on it. I'm allergic to the stuff.



randyclay -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/5/2005 2:37:43 PM)

LOL @ cherish405

Opae is fresh water shrimp you can catch in a stream.

Shoyu is an oriental seasoning made from soy beans. Makes things kinda salty like....

Here in Hawaii, fish and seafood and a BIG part of our diets. We like our fish raw (some of them anyway) and shellfish from the rocks and algae (or limu). When I was younger, we used to go to the beach and try to pry the opihi (shellfish) off the rocks, and eat them right on the spot, raw.

Are you near the sea in Austrailia? I'm sure you can tell us stories about eating 'roo and stuff, huh?

Hi Trish [:)]

Shoyu is soy sauce (the sauce you dip sushi in, etc...). The combo of shoyu, vinegar (usually rice vinegar), and sugar is popular with mangoes here. Mangoes have to be a little underripe, but not too green. It's usually made homemade and the bug juice is like a marinade. Chill it up and just enjoy! Well, if you don't like vinegar, let me see what else I have on the island... Goes into the kitchen and fumbles. Oh here! How about some shaved ice (like a snow cone but the ice is finer). What flavor would you like? Strawberry? Lime? How about some condensed milk over it? [:D]

How have you been feeling Trish?



Mrs.Above_All -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/5/2005 3:02:15 PM)

Good morning everyone!

Yuck! I had longista sausage today for the first time! It was loaded with fat and oil! [:'(] Don't mean to sound gross but I squeezed it and it just dripped out tons of oil. Shees![:@]
I wanna drink some hot green tea or something to flush it down my system.

Anyhoo, I have a prayer request for everyone. Can you please pray for me friend Sarah. Her Aunt just had a heart attack, and others in her family has health problems. But most of all, please pray for inner healing. She has a lot of baggage from her past that she needs to let go to God and it is destroying her. It's spiritual warfare for sure! Please pray that she recieve His healing.

Thank you so much. Love ya all. [sm=smile-l.gif]

Trishy



randyclay -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/5/2005 3:08:20 PM)

So, you don't like "linguisa"? It's an acquired taste, for sure.

Is Sarah the other participant in your chat room with Aimee? I will be praying.

Speaking of Aimee, I invited her over to check this out, but she's heading into finals, and will maybe have time later on.

That's wierd. I didn't see this post earlier. Hmm.

Randy, you know know I never tried opihi before? I never wanted to because I don't like clams so I just assume that it would be similar in taste and texture.

Yes, Sarah is the other girl who Aimee met on my old website. She knows her. And yes! I would love for Aimee to connect with me on this thread! I hardly see or talk to her. She's a busy student! Tell her to go check out my blogs too, please....



lofo -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/5/2005 5:12:59 PM)

Trishy,
I will pray for Sarah. Funny, I just replied to your post in my thread asking if you had a prayer request. Could I ask you for a prayer too? My mother needs some Christian women friends. She just needs some women to keep her accountable. Thanks!

I just love Hawaiian fresh pineapple. The storebought ones just are not as tasty. Could I pick up a few while I am here?

May others see Christ in you today,
Lori



Mrs.Above_All -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/5/2005 6:18:16 PM)

Yes, Lori, here's some juice pineapples for you! Prayer done too. Praying that the Lord bring forth some strong Christian women to help encourage your mother to stay focused on the Lord.

Boy I'm hungry. It's time for lunch! After that sausage this morning, I'm dying for something like soup!



pruned -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/5/2005 11:01:42 PM)

Hi Trishy!

Oh my! I just popped in and it looks like we're cooking - but not a thing I want to eat! Well, that's the trouble, I guess - you're eating raw fish! RAW?? Just the thought of it makes my tummy squeamish. Even if the critter is dead and it's nicely sliced so all you can see is a slice of meat, not recognizable parts - it's still RAW!

I have an aversion to raw meat. Can you tell??? :) BTW - I don't eat sausage, either.

Now - about those fresh fruits...I'll take a least one of each...I'll take that with a beautiful ocean entree and sunshine on the side with some of that green/white iced tea you brewed earlier.

((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((PRUNED)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Hi! You made it! I'm so happy you came. I hope you come by regularly. Awe c'mon! Raw fish is really not that bad. I guess because when you were born and raised in Hawaii, it's pretty much the norm here. You got to try it as a Poke. Poke? What's that you wonder?
Cube raw fish like tuna, add soy sauce, green onions, seseme seed oil, something acidic like lemon juice and dig in! There are many varieties of poke but I like that one a lot. Randy, back me up on this one will ya? Well, I tried [;)]

LOL. That longista sausage was just the pits. I like other sausages but that one was strange!

Anyhoo, how have you been pruned?



pruned -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/6/2005 8:40:22 AM)

OK - I'll make you a deal. IF I'm ever in Hawaii, I'll do as Hawaiiian's do and eat your raw fish.

I'm up and ready for coffee. What's for breakfast in Hawaiia?

Please pray for me today - I'm taking my correspondence course test today. It's open book, but last time my technology didn't work very well.

Have a good day - when the sun comes up over there! :)



cherish405 -> RE: AboveAll's Island Paradise (5/6/2005 10:49:58 AM)

Hi everybody.

Trishy, I'm starting to feel a bit better. I'm certainly better than I was this time last week. Just about ended myself in hospital. Not this week though.

Sounds like I can't eat a lot of the Hawaiian cuisine. Fish and seafood don't go well with me. Like I said, I'm allergic to the stuff. I know of some friends who I know would love the soy and mango sauce though. I have tried banana bread that's been cooked wrapped up in leaves under the ground though. Yum! I haven't had it in years.

Nope, can't say I've ever eaten roo or emu. Some restaurants do have that on their menus, but I'm not very adventurous. I hear they taste very gamey, which doesn't appeal to me. They tend to be too strongly flavoured for me. Other than small amounts of pork and chicken, my body can't tolerate meats. I think my body would quite happily be vegetarian if I let it, but I'd miss some of the tastes.

Have you all got plans for the weekend?

Mornin pruned. [sm=funny.gif] Cool! Let's see, I got some freshly brewed Kona Coffee here. For breakfast, how about some sweet bread french toast with cinnamon and brown sugar. I've also got some lilikoi (passion fruit) syrup here on the side and a slice of pineapple. Shees, I'm getting pretty hungry now! . Dig in!

Father I pray for your wisdom upon pruned, that she will do well on her test. Thank you for guiding her, for giving her this great opportunity! In Jesus name, AMEN.

Let us know how it goes!

Trishy

((((((((((((((((((((((Trish))))))))))))))))))))))

Praise God! Looks like the meds are working better this time. That's so great Trish! Father, thank you so much!

Well Trish, I actually love to eat vegetarian dishes sometimes. Are you a tofu fan? It's one of those foods that just soaks in whatever you cook it with. It's like a sponge. Gee, this is becoming a pretty delicious thread huh? [:)] I don't even want to get you hooked on those food blogs out there. Anyhoo, I don't like gamey meats either.

Let see, I plan to go to this meeting for a product called Juice for Life. Basically what it is is vegetable and fruit supplements. It's good for people who hate their fruits and veggies or who don't eat enough in their diet. It's straight veggies and fruits all packed into a capsule form or a chewable form. My friend invited me so I thought I would at least try. I don't know if it's for me yet. She also is encouraging me to sell it. Other than that, the only plans I have is to start moving things into my new studio. My parents just built one in the back of their house and I will be moving in and renting the place. I'm so lazy though! I wish I could snap my fingers and everything would just be in there. Oh well. Last, but not least, we continue on the pulpit at church on the Doctrine of sin. This Sunday is on unforgiveness. It will be a good one.

Whew! So... how about everyone else?

Trishy
