Cinnabon in a Can

I found these at Costco last week and just had to try them. Granted, it's not quite the same as Cinnabon, but it's really the sauce that makes the dish. Close enough for a Saturday morning when they're still closed.

Happy Retirement, Folks

Today, 6 of my coworkers are retiring. While 2009 has been a year of challenges, I hope their 2010 will be joyous, peaceful, and happy as they enjoy their well-earned retirement.

How's that sign they had posted in the office yesterday?

Aloha Kalikimaka 2009

  • Dec. 25th, 2009 at 2:08 PM

After my Grinch blog post, I thought I'd better share something more befitting the spirit of the holidays.

So here, for your viewing enjoyment, are photos of two special Christmas trees. These are courtesy of Hawaiian Airlines. The top tree is from their main Premier Club lounge and the other is from their new lounge, occupying the space formerly used as Aloha Airlines' Suite 737.

Aloha Kalikimaka!

My Favorite Christmas Ornament This Yeart

  • Dec. 22nd, 2009 at 6:14 PM
capsun

Yep, it's the Grinch.

Now don't take that to mean I don't like Christmas. I just don't like setting up and breaking down the Christmas tree and lights.

And besides, isn't that grin just a bit endearing?

Good Luck, Mike

We celebrated yet another departure at the office. This time it was for our student assistant, Mike. After a 2-year stint with us, he's moving on to a job that's more in-line with his career goals.

We wish him all the best, but we'll miss his calming and helpful demeanor.

Did you see the food we fed him on his last day?

Holiday Kisses

I've seen and bought the normal red, green, and silver Kisses Hershey's puts out during the holidays. But this was the first time I've ever seen Cherry Cordial Kisses. So of course I bought a bag. They're quite good.

How can you not get in the holiday spirit when you see something like this? This is the cake my wife bought for her school's faculty Christmas party.

At the 2009 State of OHA

There's something to be said about the feeling one gets being in a cathedral as opposed to a regular church. This is at St. Andrew's Cathedral.

It's starting to look Christmassy. First, a shot of the Fasi building's Christmas tree in lights. Then, a shot of my office building's tree.

Yep, that's what I ate for dinner. It's one of the best parts of coming home - and a long-standing tradition of mine. You can read my full review: http://capsun.org/2008/12/23/those-famous-managos-pork-chops/

Is this Really Good Eats?

  • Nov. 20th, 2009 at 9:28 AM
capsun

OK, I like macadamia nuts and I even like Spam. But putting the two together? Really? That doesn't even sound appealing. What do you think? Has anyone tried this yet? Maybe it's a case of Green Eggs and Ham - and willtadte good after all.

My New Car - in my dreams

I'm not really a big fan of sports cars, but this Maserati just might change my mind.

Want one for yourself? Just have the $134,000 ready to pay at the register.

Want to just see one? This one is at Kahala Mall, near the Apple Store.

Official Portrait of the First Family

  • Oct. 25th, 2009 at 12:28 PM
capsun

Photo from: http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/Family-Portait

With all the news and attention on furloughs, I missed this. So, I'll use it to start a leisurely Sunday, typically a family day. And what better way than to see the White House's official portrait of the First Family: President Barack Obama, Sasha Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, and Malia Obama.

Probably the most interesting part to me is that if you try to get the full size version of the photo, it links to Flickr. It's nice to see that the Obama White House is keeping up with technology.

This is my lunch at the combined Mactoberfest/Geek Day at Leeward Community College http://ow.ly/wnLv. As delicious as it is, the best part is that it only cost $7.50, including a drink. They're from Makino Chaya. Yum!
