Happy Hawaiian Holidays!

Holiday time on the Kona Coast!

So lucky we live in Hawaii! Water temperature is warm year round, as the Sun gently soothes the soul. Mauna Kea just got a snow storm, which cools the night temperatures at our South Kona Fruit Stand down to a brisk 62 degrees. Perfect sleeping weather with a down comforter! 🙂

The “Bumpy Kaffir Lime”

 

 

 

 

Winter time is citrus season on the Big Island, Hawaii.  This “bumpy skinned” kaffir lime is mostly used for zest. When I ask people to scratch and smell it, they are taken aback by it’s sweet, but powerful aroma. There has been a vodka made with this unique smelling, and tasting lime. Citrus peels are said to be good at fighting skin cancer.
