UFC 121 - BROCK BECOMES CAIN'S PERSONAL PINATA!!!

A DAMN GOOD DAY FOR ME AS WAS ABLE TO WATCH UFC 121 WITH KA'IWA & HIS OHANA WITH FREINDS.  ONOLICIOUS FOODS, FUN AND LAUGHTER, AND MOST IMPORTATNTLY...  BROCK LESNER JUST GOT OWNED BY CAIL VELASQUEZ.

IN AN EALIER INTERVIEW WITH BROCK LESNER, BROCK MADE COMMENT SAYING THAT AFTER HE WINS THE FIGHT, HE WAS GONNA GO HOME AND HAVE A COORS LIGHT AND EAT A BURRITO.

WELL IF YOU ASK ME, BROCK CAN EAT ALL THE BURRITOS HE WANTS BECAUSE HE GOT HIS ASS KICKED LIKE A PINATA GETTING BASHED WAITING FOR THE GOODIES TO COME OUT, INSTEAD PINATA BROCK GUSHED OUT A LOT BLOOD INSTEAD!!!

CONGRATS TO CAIN VELASQUEZ ON HIS FIGHT AND CROWNED AS THE NEW UFC HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP.

MY FIRST "MONKEY-GORILLA-KING KONG" BREAD!!!



WITHIN THE LAST WEEK OR SO, I BEGAN TO FEEL LIKE DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT WITH MY FREE TIME SINCE "BALLROOM DANCE CLASS" IS ON A 2 WEEK INTERMISSION BREAK AND WONT START UNTIL SOMETIMES IN EARLY NOVEMBER.

HMMMM...  I COULD'VE WENT AND GOT CRAZY AT SEVERAL PARTIES THAT I'VE BEEN INVITED TO, OR MAYBE GO ROUND UP COUPLE KOREAN FRIENDS OF MINES AND GO SING "KARAOKE" AND DRINK "SOJU" AND EAT "KAL-BI & KIM CHEE".  BUT INSTEAD, I CHOSE TO HAVE A FRIEND (WHO WISHES TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS), SHOW ME SOME POINTERS ON BAKING DESSERTS DISHES!!!  YUPZ!!!  I DECIDED TO LEARN HOW TO BAKE SOME SIMPLE YET "SWEET & ONOLICIOUS" DESSERTS.

AND MY FIRST LESSON IS ALREADY A SUCCESS WITH THE FAMOUS, "PAULA DEAN'S GORILLA BREAD!!!"

THIS DISH CAME OUT JUST PERFECT!!!  JUST ENJOY THE VIDEO AND BE PREPARED AS YOU MAY NEVER KNOW WHAT I MAY BRING TO THE PARTY.  COULD IT BE MY FAMOUS "SPAM MUSUBI???" OR MAYBE MY MYSTERY DESSERT DISH.

RESTRUCTURED THE ARTIC PORCH AT MY HOME!!!



ALOHA EVERYONE!!!

THIS PAST WEEKEND HAS BEEN ANOTHER BUSY ONE FOR ME AND MY STEP-DAD, JIMMY PETE AND GOOD FRIEND, ROBERT.  WE ALL WORKED ON MY OLD ROTTING ARTIC PORCH THAT WAS DAMAGED BY WATER FROM A LEAKY ROOF DURING THE RAINY DAYS IN THE LAST 2 YEARS!!!

WE CHANGED THE 2 X 6'S AND THE 3/4 INCH PLYBOARDS.  AFTER SEVERAL HOURS, IT FINALLY GOT DONE AND I FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT. 

BEFORE THEN, IT WAS NEARLY SCARY FOR ANYONE TO STEP IN MY ARTIC BECAUSE IT WAS READY TO FALL IN.

BUT NOW IT IS SAFE AND GOOD TO GO.

AGAIN MUCH MAHALO TO JIMMY AND ROBERT.

KAHEALANI... DO YOU REMEMBER THIS CLASSROOM???



AFTER MY BALLROOM DANCE CLASS ENDED FOR THE EVEINING, I DECIDED TO VIDEO TAPE THIS SEGMENT OF KAHEALANI'S OLD KINDERGARDEN CLASS WHERE MR. YODER TAUGHT.  THIS PLACE BROUGHT MANY FUN MEMORIES FOR ME WHEN I USE TO PICK UP KAHEALANI AFTER SCHOOL IN THE GYM.

GOOD OLE MEMORIES - FLAIRS OF THE PAST!!!

ALOHA EVERYONE!!!
  
EVERY NOW AND THEN I WILL OCCASSIONALLY UPLOAD AN OLD BUT CLASSIC VIDEO OF SOMETHING FROM MY PAST FOR "MEMORIES AND LAUGHTERS". I FEEL THAT IT ALWAYS BRINGS GOOD HEALTH TO PEOPLE WHEN WE BRING UP OLD BUT GOOD FORGOTTENED MEMORIES.

ANOTHER COUPLE OLD VIDEO FOOTAGES OF ME PRACTICING FLAIR BARTENDING SEVERAL YEARS AGO.  AT ONE TIME IN MY CRAZY LIFE...  YES I WAS BARTENDER OR I LIKE TO CALL MYSELF A "MIXOLOGIST" WHICH SOUNDED MORE GEEKY, LOL!!!  I USE TO DO PRIVATE PARTIES AND MADE GOOD MONEY BUT AS KAHEALANI GOT OLDER I DECIDED TO RETIRE THE ON-CALL JOB AND PROMISED TO ONLY DO IT ON VERY RARE AND SPECIAL OCCASSIONS.

STILL TO THIS DAY, I GET CALLS EVERY NOW AND THEN BUT I TURNED DOWN MANY OFFERS AS I HAVE OTHER THINGS I LIKE DOING, LIKE BALLROOM DANCING!!!
