We had an incredible time, we ate ono kalua pig and had a late potluck lunch with the members of the club.

We were definitely were the “malihini” (newcomer or visitor), but everyone was very warm and welcomed our family immediately.

We want to send out a giant mahalo to the club, and hope that you will have us back next year.

Here are some of the pictures from the setting up the Imu (underground ground oven) on Friday night.

Here is a link to our Bread Maker at Amazon. It has turned out to the best maker I have ever owned. It is not a joke like some of the ones that end up at yard sales and thrift stores.

This bread just falls right out of the mold with a couple of shakes and it looks exactly like the picture above.
