So Wat Are You Thinking About?
By Braddah Lance
Da sights, da sounds, da smells..... da memories.
Truly, our memories - good and bad - are always triggered by something our senses pick up. We're then either transported back to a place/time wea our spirits were high and nothing in da world could bring you down.
While you're "visiting" for a bit, now you have dis goofy smile plastered on your face, a dazed twinkle in your eye and even though you may have been "out" for just a few seconds, your reflection back on your memory seems like you've been there for hours.
Now you're refreshed.... until someone smacks you back down to reality.
Wassap Wit Dat!
So now, in da spirit of da holidays let's play a word association game. I'll start off with a holiday word and da next word(s) should be da first thought/memory/idea dat comes to your mind wen you hea/see dat word.
If someone posts before you got to post, no worries - just keep going.
I know dis game can probably last forevah (das da point
) but you nevah know wen you may be sent back to your happy place even if it may be for a few seconds.
If you got a li'l mo'olelo fo' share too..... no scade 'em, go get 'em.




Wassup Wit Dat!

yup....right now I take anything....we went to Caldwell, Idaho two weeks ago for a funeral...5 hour drive...instead of staying for the traditional "haole" after funeral...soup, bread and salad we took off for Kanak Attack in Boise....and Bradda Michael Mohica....hooked it up...his Ono Hawaiian food make it worth the drive. He even had poke and boy was it soooooo.....gooooooddddddddd!!!!! So yeah I can drive, but you will not find sashimi or poke here in Ogden, if so...it's $15-$20 for just a small tray of 7 pieces...yeah right! And buying just a slab of Ahi Tuna frozen is an arm and leg hea...I just miss being able to just buy it in the grocery store like at Foodland...it's not no 5 hour drive.!!! We will go back in January to celebrate my oldest daughters sweet 16...BL..you believe she that old already.
