Cacao = Chocolate?

The Mouse bought a jar of locally harvested honey with cacao nibs.

Jar

The Mouse tried the honey on a toasted frozen waffle.

Waffle, Devonshire Cream, Honey with Cacao Nibs

The Mouse mistakenly thought the cacao nibs would be chocolate-ty. The nibs were kinda crunchy, and in The Mouse’s opinion, not in a pleasant way. Also, the nibs were a little too bitter in taste, again, The Mouse’s opinion. Not flat out objectionable, but try once is enough. 🙂

p.s. The Mouse also picked up a jar of honey with rum, hopefully it is better, will let you know.

Stay safe and well.

Random

Jus’ random pics, cleaning out the phone. Thankfully, Hurricane Douglas veered off at the last minute.

Honey

The Cat took a client to dinner the other night, this was his “omiyage” to The Cat. Honey is produced by bees raised by the university for study and research.

Another Bowl of Noodles

Somen noodles, beet greens, fried egg. Soup noodles. One of The Cat’s favorite foods.

Dessert

The Cat brought home from the client dinner. The Mouse ate for breakfast yesterday (waiting out the hurricane).

Stay safe and well.

Farmers Market Finds

As mentioned in the previous post, I was at the Windward Mall Farmers Market yesterday (http://www.yelp.com/biz/windward-farmers-market-kaneohe-2). The products I picked up (in between hawking). 🙂

Granola and Scone

Sweet and salty mac nut (macadamia nuts) granola from Gorilla Granola and Maui Gold pineapple and coconut scone from Mama ‘Nita Scones.

Kona Coffee and Honey

100 pure estate Kona coffee from Delish and rainbow blossom honey from Rainbow bees (I wonder if the bees are different colors, heh heh).

I’ve gotten to know these vendors over the last couple of months, good people.

We’ll be eating good for the next couple of days. 🙂

Enjoy.
