Tomorrow between 6-9PM, North Shore Chamber of Commerce is hosting Haleiwa Art Walk. Art galleries, shops, and restaurants in the area will be open late (Most of them closing at 9PM). If you are lucky, you may be able to eat free pupus (appetizers) at some of the galleries. There also will be live entertainment incl. hula and fire dancing.
The event is free and it is so much fun, especially if you are an art and/or craft lover. For more information, visit North Shore Chamber of Commerce website.

commentsKakiage-Don (Deep Fried Shrimp and Vegetables w/ Rice)
This was our last night's dinner. Since it is deep-fried, I would not call it healthy, but it is only about 534 kcal and it is relatively cheap to make.
Serves 3-4 people

Total Time: 30 mins
Ingredients;
1 Regular Onions OR 1 Bundle Scallions
6 oz. Medium Shrimp, peeled, de-veined, tails removed & chopped

5. Scoop 1/8 of the mixture w/ a big spoon & gently slide it into the pan. Flip it over when it looks crisp (about 1 to 2 mins.). Take it out after about 1 to 2 mins.

Green Living Expo at Neal Blaisdell Center
My husband and I often attend events held at the exhibition hall of Neal Blaisdell Center in Honolulu. Because they are fun and most of the time FREE.
In the past, we have been to Antique Collectors' Show, Made in Hawaii Show (w/ nominal admission fee) and many other events. We especially like Made in Hawaii show because the vendors often give out free samples and valuable coupons. Last time, we were even able to participate in a live cooking show by a local chef.
Today and tomorrow, they are having Green Living Expo. I have never been to this Expo, but it would be an interesting event for those trying to live green. According to their website, there would be more than 100 exhibits, incl. green building & remodelding, heath & beauty, organic & natural products, eco-car, eco-fashion show.
For more information, visit Green Living Expo's website.
