BEING HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS MEANS RELAXING IN LUSH GREEN LANDSCAPES INSTEAD OF SNOW-COVERED MOUNTAINS, TINY SWIMSUITS AND FLIP FLOPS (OR "SLIPPERS," AS LOCALS SAY) INSTEAD OF HEAVY WINTER JACKETS AND THICK BOOTS AND OF COURSE, BEING SURROUNDED BY FAMILY AND FRIENDS. THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE OF THE HOLIDAYS CAN CAUSE A BIT OF CHAOS, BUT I NEVER FORGET THAT THESE ARE SOME OF THE MOST VALUABLE MOMENTS SPENT WITH THE ONE'S I LOVE. CHRISTMAS MORNING WAS SPENT CONVERSING OVER WARM CUPS OF COFFEE AND LOW CHRISTMAS TUNES WHILE UNWRAPPING GIFTS. A HEARTY SPREAD OF SAVORY SHAKSHOUKA, A STACK OF PANCAKES AND FRESH FRUIT MADE THE PERFECT BRUNCH FOR A DECADENT CHRISTMAS FEAST. LATER GATHERINGS WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS ALLOWED EVERYONE TO CATCH UP, ENGAGE IN LIVELY STORYTELLING AND RELISH IN CHEERFUL HOLIDAY SPIRIT. ANOTHER HAWAIIAN CHRISTMAS VACATION WELL SPENT! MELE KALIKIMAKA AND HAU'OLI MAKAHIKI HOU.
