Back at Makaha with the Terror Twins

Things have been looking up this week. The weather is better and that always puts me in a good mood. Yesterday I woke up and the sun was out and it was nice and windy. Perfect laundry hanging weather. Even the horses next door seemed to be in good spirits, they were running all around, whinnying and just having a ball.

Seriously stoked on this laundry scene here. It has been raining off and on for close to a month here which is why the mountains are so green. Intermittent rain sucks for getting stuff dry, however, so I am extra happy about the weather.

View from my backyard. Horses are chillin' at the moment.

I called the 1-800 number and talked to a lady at the IRS who told me that she "could" look up my case but that she wouldn't get anything on the screen that wasn't already in the letter that they sent. What?! I asked about twelve different ways if there was any way to find out where I am in the process and/or why this is happening and she was less than helpful to say the least. It's gonna be a long wait for the refund, so I have been doing the bread thing, as well as doubling up on my online efforts with the creation of some orgonite listings on ebay. I just got paid by Amazon so I was able to order a new phone. I'm going 2015 with it and getting an I Phone 6 Plus. I am excited to have a phone again. It's sketchy being out on the road without a way to communicate if anything goes wrong on my car. I have also been unable to pick up any out of the house work since I have no way to keep in contact with the kids.

Since the weather has been nice and there are waves all along the coast, the kids and I have returned to the beach twice this week. We are still easily selling almost all of the bread in about a half an hour and it is not even summer yet (busy tourist season). I have been really thinking about this and watching the Shave ice man out there everyday with CROWDS around him, and I am starting to consider buying YET another 10x10 tent and just setting up at the beach for the summer. Maklaha is super busy and people know that so there are actually a number of food vendors there on really busy weekends.

I am not a really a food vendor tho, this bread thing is just something I usually do over the summer when there are mangoes (mango bread-possibly the easiest sale there is to make). It has made me quite a bit of money over the last few years, but I have also gained a pretty gnarly allergy, so I do not enjoy it as much as before. (lol) Anyway, I have been thinking for a while about taking my orgonite out there and making a bunch of the small ones to sell. As they are only $25, they would be perfect for young tourist girls who are out with their parents. It would also be another way to get the word out about my products.

There is another beach that I will introduce you folks to at some point, called Yokohamas. It is at the absolute end of the road on this side and there is NO ONE selling ANYTHING out there so I am seriously considering stealing the shave ice dudes idea and taking it down there. I have made decent money there on a number of occasions, but it is EXTRA hot down there, so a tent is a must. People camp out there for weeks on end, and it is a must-see for those who are brave enough to come this far, so there is no shortage of people. They are a captive audience, so yeah, the wheels have been turning.

Since the weather has been so much better and I got such a good response from the last set, I will post a few more pics of Makaha from this week. I think I will do a full write-up of our world-famous beach here soon. There is so much culture and tradition here that I am excited to share with you folks!

New lifeguard stands. The old ones were bright orange.

As you can see there were tons of people out. This was tuesday. The weekends are MUCH busier.

I climbed these same trees as a child.

Future businesswoman. She says, "my product is bread!"

Obligatory sunset shot. This was a good one.

Even though I missed the "green flash" it was still a beautiful sunset.

Aloha From Hawaii! Love, The Terror Twins.

So cute, right?! I <3 these two.
