Mr. Pikko was kind enough to cut up 2 hours of news for me to get this clip of my A Shirt for Sawyer bento shown on KITV News This Morning last week Thursday. This week my Aunty C will be handing off printouts of both bentos to get to the cast via some complicated [...]

Eggy Lunch (239)

July 9, 2008 Vegetarian

I went to eat lunch at Paesano in Manoa Marketplace yesterday, which was a nice surprise for me as I hadn’t really given that place more than a couple of glances in the past. The outside doesn’t look very impressive but the inside was very upscale and not what I was expecting at all. It [...]
