Aloha everyones,
Any of you know the secret recipe for Hana Bars??
If not, I'll strike out on my own in the kitchen. Or wait til we get back home in the islands.

Are you talking about those awful desserty things that CJ has on a huge platter after dinner? 
You know, that CJ likes a hearty beer like Heineken or such, try to ply him with that...
Oh, I'm glad I don't have that recipe, I would be over 200 lbs! And I'm only 5 feet tall. Pua'a!
Eh Bwop, howzit? How's retirement?

e Julie, aloha mai!
Das da buggah I'm talkin' about! Is it really only CJ that controls the world's supply of Hana Bars?? In a way, I'm glad. It could mean a senseless ruin for countless waistlines if the recipe got out.
"Retirement" is just a fancy way of saying "unemployed". I stay way too busy. Hardest ting now is trying to sell one house so's we can get settled in Hawai'i. Every week our realtor tells us "Drop another $100,000!". It wouldn't be such a pilikia if they knew about housing price decline in Hawai'i.
Going to see George tonight. Miss you guys big kine. |

hi bwop,
i try to avoid those hana bars because they're too darn good. but, there's a reason they've won the "best of lahaina" award... when i have had one, they remind me a lot of a riff on nanaimo bars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanaimo_bar). perhaps it's the tooth-cracking sweetness, but check them out and see if you agree.
i just read your send-off articles. we met this june at george's camp at the opening night dinner, but i didn't realize who you were. i lived in palo alto when working on my phd, and had heard of your preschool... you are going to be missed...
aloha,
keith

Aloha mai e Keith,
Nanaimo bars look too ono! Maybe countries shouldn't have "sister cities" as much as "sister sinful sweets". (What would Antacrtica offer-- shave ice?). Why I started this thread in the middle of a month long cleansing diet beats me. |

| I remember years ago when Nanaimo bars crossed the border. They were ubiquitous as latte stands here on the wet side of the mountains. Taken in MODERATION, they imparted a euphoria punctuated by a crash in sugar later. 'Liscious, though. |

I had my first nanaimo bar in - ta-daa! - nanaimo! they're easy to make. i think if you add some shredded coconut and some macadamia nuts, you'll be getting close to a hana bar, but it's been awhile since i had a hana bar.
we'll be back on maui in early september, and so we'll do some field research...
aloha,
keith
