Aloha from the w i d e s t state in the United States when measured from east to west.
Rise and shine, pal ‘o mine. It’s 5:15AM out here right now, not long before dawn, but even in the dark the jungle surrounding my in-law’s condo is filled with deafening birdsong from more species than I can count. I recognize the sound of roosters and doves, but I’m not sure about the rest of them.
Yesterday we spent the day catching up with family and walked around Ala Moana Shopping Center’s 300 stores. It’s pretty much your typical open-air mall experience but on a gigantic scale.
Mom is getting better every day. She’s lost a lot of weight from the chemo and gets tired quickly, but that’s what frequent breaks on mall benches are for.
I hope you had fun at the virtual potluck, but I apologize for El Hub’s behavior and the incident with the tree swing. He had one too many cups of sangria. ![]()
But that was then and this is now. There’s no sense crying over spilled punch.
Are you ready for today’s installment of 10 Days of Giveaways?
The prize

One lucky lady will win the following items from Sonia Kashuk (a $43 value):
- 6-Piece Travel Brush Set With Case ($20)
- Powder Brush ($12)
- Mineral Brush Up on Color in Shimmering Rose ($11)
How to enter
Entering is easier than ordering froo-froo drinks at a beach bar.
All you have to do is leave a comment about anything you like — the name of your favorite mixed drink, what shoes you’re wearing today or what your plans are tonight.
I’ll pick the winner at random from among the people who enter by 11:59PM PST tonight.
Boa sorte!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. Like my mother-in-law, Sonia Kashuk has faced breast cancer. You can read about Sonia’s story here.

Valerie´s last blog post..By Lauren Luke
Hey Karen! Glad to hear you’re enjoying your time in Hawaii; I think it was about this time last year I started reading your blog and you were in Hawaii vacationing.
All your pictures put me right back there, as an 18 year old high school grad, seeing my sweetie for the first time in a year. 
Can’t wait for this year’s round of pictures…
Spring has hit and I love the smell of the blooming lilacs!
i had so much fun going fishing/swimming/boating this past weekend. I didn’t catch anything but some sun burn and the current. If i did have my life jacket on i would have drown, no kidding especially because i can’t swim.
ying´s last blog post..My virginity and then some more.
