From last year...
It’s been 3 years since my mom has passed.
It’s been 2 years since we sold her house.
I miss my mom.
I miss the house that I grew up in.
I miss her famous shrimp pineapple that she would make every Christmas and serve in the same yellow Tupperware container.
Mom's Shrimp Pineapple
While I love Christmas, it does stir up memories of mom. Good and happy memories. Memories of family dinners and parties with good food and laughs.
Brunch at Willows
Endo Reunion at Natsunoya's
Dinner at Kabuki's
I can see her standing in the kitchen cooking the egg and tuna for her sushi. I can smell the vinegar in the rice. I can see her waving to us in the yard with the dogs as we drive away after our Sunday dinner.
I will treasure those memories forever!
Growing up we had the same silver artificial Christmas tree with a four color wheel spinning under it. Year after year mom would put up the tree. I got tired of it. Now, I miss it. I miss the tree because it reminds me of mom.
Kinda looked like this - Pic stolen from the internet
We also had a big, old stereo which must’ve been state of the art once upon a time. I was glad to see it go after I got my new modern component stereo. Now I miss that old stereo. When we were kids, we would play Christmas songs on that old stereo while my sister and I would line up our presents to see who got the most presents. I never won but it was fun to try. Mom would always let us open 1 present on Christmas Eve.
Our stereo looked almost exactly like this
Record albums went in the space above the dials.
I love Christmas for the gift giving and being the season for sharing. Christmas memories make it more special.
Thanks for letting me share some of my memories. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and keep your memories alive!
No surf for me - Strong gusty West winds, decided to stay home at make breakfast for my girls.
Aiiiiyahhhh! Board leaking! Bummahs!!!
I been noticing the glass lifting recently and then saw water in my van where the board rests.
Time to rest and dry this guy out. Take care buddy, we'll get you fixed soon.

Sad news.
Our Ala Moana Park surf brother Sid A. passed away last month.
I heard about Sid's passing last month but I'm never sure if I should post about it not knowing how the family feels.
Since some time has past and services are set, I want to share the details for Sid's funeral service that his family has planned.
Where: Hosoi Mortuary
