Edible Book Contest (Week 16: April 14-20)

The UH library has been participating in the Hawaii Foodbank food drive that the entire system has been helping coordinate every year. I was asked to be the library's coordinator (it always gets shoved onto the shoulders of the new staff with the excuse that it will look good on tenure). One of the events that was already planned was the third annual Edible Book Contest. I was asked to be a judge so I got to rate the entries, even though my rating didn't include taste. I had to donate a can of food or give some money in order to eat the entries, so my votes only counted on looks. But they were pretty cool looking (and tasted great, too)!

Makapuu Hike (Week 15: April 7-13)

We went on a hike at Makapuu that leads to a beach. We have never done this trail before, but we've seen it down below several times from the Makapuu lighthouse hike.

Engagement Anniversay (Week 13: March 24-30)

March 29th was our 6 year engagement anniversary! Dainan proposed to me at Waimanalo Beach so since we had Good Friday holiday we decided to go out there. As you can see from the cloudy sky it wasn't warm beach weather but we decided to stay and take some pictures. I am so glad I said "YES" 6 years ago.
