The Big Island Eats: Shave Ice

One of the coolest things to eat is shave ice - it's like really light snow that has been packed tightly (like you would a snowball) drizzled with a sweet-flavored syrup. You can even top it with sweetened condensed milk too. (I recommend this.) It is also one of the coolest snacks to photograph - so bulbous and colorful. Here is our friend in her little shop on the main drag in downtown Hilo. 

P.S. How cool would it be to just wear your orange bikini to work?!

The Big Island: Mystery Fruit

I'm pretty fortunate to have been exposed to lots of different types of foods during my lifetime, but I'm stumped and so were my travel companions on the above. Though I was surrounded by a chef, a lifelong cook, and several foodies, this fruit is still a mystery...Is it mamoncillo or longan, possibly? N. described it as an "inside out grape" and it has a dark inedible pit inside. Not too sweet and very fleshy. Anyone?

Going Nuts on The Big Island

I love to photograph images that make up a chronological series. Like, here's step A, then B, and so on. Climbing the tree was not my idea, but it inspired this little series on where macadamia nuts really come from. I'd like to point out that the tree climbing is optional, as you can always just shake the branches from the ground. Be sure to cover your head (and camera!) if you go the shaking route.

Have a good heavy rock to smash the pods to get to the meat.  

Be careful not to smash your toes.

Perfect snack. The wild pigs like 'em too.
