Big Kahuna Bash 5 - Part 5

Saturday, July 29, 2023

We stayed until about 5:30 and got to catch a little bit of Paulie on the Lanai's set. He's a solo act who sings and plays the ukulele. He had lots of stories about the Hawaiian music scene years ago back on the islands. We would have loved to stay for the Intoxicats but family obligations called. Thankfully we got to see the Intoxicats a couple years ago.

Not a bad day for a cigar...

...despite the heat.

While doing some rum tasting I listened to Hawaiian songs Apple Music selected for me. Shown above is Plantation Rum. Music selections included the following:

Silver Hour

Wednesday, March 7, 2018

I had a lovely and relaxing evening with Dale tonight. Work was, as always, exhausting but particularly so today. We had stuff that needed to get done but we ending up socializing on the couch. I made my newly favorite Hula Hula cocktail and we listened to newly downloaded Duke Kamoku and His Islanders album.

During dinner we watched some episodes of the most recent season of Grace and Frankie starring Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin.

Sippin' Safari

Saturday, March 3, 2018

As if getting my Shag tiki pendant yesterday weren't enough, today Sippin' Safari by Jeff "Beachbum" Berry was delivered. Yay! 

I globbed on to one recipe pretty quickly while previewing the book because it looked so easy even I could do it. The Hula Hula Cocktail is one part gin, one part orange curacoa, and one part orange juice shaken on ice and strained. No 1/4 ounces of 4 different kinds of freshly squeezed fruit juices. No three different kinds of rum. No drink mixers with shaved ice and agitator cubes. I'm too impatient for all of that. I mean I love a well made craft tiki cocktail it's just that I'd rather have someone else make the hardcore stuff for me. 

Music tonight included a couple of mixes I downloaded from iTunes (see above and below).
