Guest Post: Candy Cane Whipped Cream

Top your holiday desserts with this bit of sweet enchantment: Candy Cane Whipped Cream. There’s nothing like homemade whipped cream. Seriously. The billowing clouds of cream go with just about everything. Serve it sweetened as a topping or as a filling for pies and cakes.

J.O.Y. Reviews: Fresh Cafe

When you hear the word fresh, the sight of brightly colored vegetables comes to mind, doesn't it?  No one ever thinks of the word fresh and then visualizes a can of food.  At Fresh Cafe in Kaka'ako, the food is always freshly made with fresh ingredients, never stale, never old, never cold from sitting around waiting to be served.  It's located smack dab in...

J.O.Y. Reviews: Island Brew Coffeehouse

I love coffee, anyone who follows me on Instagram knows my love for coffee and espresso runs deep, deep I tell ya!!  I honestly must say, without coffee in the morning, I would be a literal walking zombie unable to complete my work and function normally.  It's natural considering I don't get nearly enough sleep which is something I'm working on, but I digress....

Anyhow, Alaka'i woke up...

The Heart of What I Juice...

I lasted all the way until day 34 of my juice fast before I gave in and went back to food.  I did, however, adopt a vegetarian diet consisting mostly of vegetables, fruits and allowing for lean chicken and fish.  It works for me, I have more energy than I've had in years.  The downside is that I am limited when I eat...

Morning Cup O' Joe...

Well as you know, I love coffee... like love it.  I actually have needed it lately because I stay up way too late catching up on paperwork for the day job or blogging work.  I wake up groggy and tired and lately have been indulging in some very strong cups o' Joe... sometimes a cup o' Johan (Gevalia commercial reference)... but this post is...
