ONO -- OH YES!!!

"ONO" is delicious in Hawaiian, and lately we have been abundantly blessed with some wonderful treats.  We are lucky to be on "the A list" of a couple of local fisherman who email when they have some fish to share -- which means we are getting it a wholesale. 

Couple days ago, we got the word, "FRESH AHI" so we signed up for four pounds.  AHI is the local name for Yellow Fin Tuna -- a beautiful fish.  Of course we had some for dinner that night -- seared with an crust of roasted seeds and crushed black pepper (pink in the middle of course. ONO!!   There is enough in the freezer for four more beautiful meals!


We are also harvesting VAST quantities of Lilikoi (passion fruit) off the big vine in our mini-orchard. 

Today we picked a whole garbage can full, and after processing it, had two quarts to freeze and use.  Lots of people make amazing desserts that are too sweet for us, so we use it mostly in juices and tea.  The purple jar in the photo is another experiment making fermented veggies.
