👋 Aloha from DC,
Friday took me somewhere you definitely wouldn't have expected me to turn up on my own: the PB Dye Golf Club in Maryland. ⛳
My childhood friend Krislyn asked if I was available to help out at the Capstone Classic, a fundraiser for CitySwing Foundation and its youth programs. Another Maui classmate of ours was there too, and I somehow even came home with kūlolo, which I haven't had in ages!
Apparently that put me in a Hawaii food mood, because the next day I used up some tofu with a pack of poke mix. I love these little packets because they come with dried ogo, Hawaiian salt, and chili pepper, and I usually keep a few on hand for cooking or omiyage when I travel.
It was one of those funny reminders that even when you’re far from home, your worlds have a way of overlapping.
✨ Until next time,
