Been helping my mom's church with some tsukemono making this week as well as more cooking for their upcoming bon dance this weekend.

Just wanted you guys to take a deep breath and enjoy the sunset...hope your week is going well.

Will they be selling cookbooks at the event ? Do they still do that ?

They'll be selling their cookbook, "Wisteria Delights", Dd. As well as plate lunch, bento, and baked goods too :) Hope you check them out--Pearl City Hongwanji.

Take care.

Kat, how have you been? Sorry I've been MIA lately or since maybe my vacation?! I've been busy (offline) and hardly catch up with blog visiting and even my own blog. =P I hope you are having good summer. Obon festival is coming? How nice! I need to learn tsukemono one day. It's so nice you are spending lots of time with your mom! btw, beautiful sunset...love the colors.

How I miss those Bon dances on Maui! We attended one in Hokkaido a week ago, but they only do two dances. In Hawaii they use dances from all over Japan plus new ones. Good fun!

MY weekend... not good, both in-laws are sick and one was sent to the emergency last night, so looks like the mr. will be staying back while I go on vay-cay, so much going on with house guests.. well actually they make it all better, both, at the same time are suffering from dementia, so weird how they are interconnected.

I've never been to Obon celebrations before, but my friends want to check it out, so I might go, will be in Hawaii for five days though..yippie.

sorry to hear about your in-laws, and that the mr. has to stay behind...hope you enjoy your time in Hawaii!

Take care.
