How else do you welcome the New Year of 2010 without these activities?
Glow Putt Golf in Windward Mall. No President Obama sighting having just missed him and the family watching Avatar at the Mall’s Regal theaters.
And nothing brings out the classiness of a shopping mall like a temporary, indoor Fireworks booth.
The New Year wouldn’t be [...]
Frosty the Snowman made out of coconut shavings and gingerbread house frosting.
The making of smores in pictures.
Couldn’t finish the hamburger steak plate with kim chee fried rice from Big City Diner.
Although dessert did follow…
Who knew the Amish made awesome popcorn kernels for popping? Check out this Lady Finger variety that has hulless popcorn so kids won’t choke on the hulls.
Amish popcorn is sure to be a gift to talk about!
Who can resist smokin’ hot little smokies and steaming hot chocolate?
Yummy!
Refreshing and light were my first thoughts biting into a California Crab wrap from Wraps and Rolls Hawaii.
But first, full disclosure that this wrap is regularly priced at $2.90, but I received it free as a gift.
Filled with imitation crab, rice noodles, crispy lettuce, avocado, and cucumber, the crab wrap was the right size with [...]

Check out today’s home page of Metromix Honolulu.
La Isla Burrito is featured with reviews of several of their dishes. How does Metromix like the food?
In this economy, you can’t beat the combination of tasty plates, good portions and good prices. And if in doubt, just go for the huevos rancheros.
Sounds about right if you ask [...]
So I caved in and opened my International Delight White Chocolate Mocha coffee creamer early. Touted as a coffee house inspiration, I was sadly left uninspired. I couldn’t taste a thing in my coffee. Maybe this creamer is geared towards sophisticated palettes that can detect subtle nuances whereas my tastes tend towards bold and simple.
Like [...]
International Delight is still competing in the coffee creamer battles with Coffeemate, releasing three new flavors, White Chocolate Mocha, Caramel Macchiato, and Vanilla Latte. These new “coffee house inspirations” come in newly designed, stylish silver and black bottles.
I have to say that International Delight probably has the best packaging designs and names for their creamer [...]

If getting a caffeine jolt during your morning shower isn’t enough, how about adding in some delicious fat in the form of bacon soap? Okay, okay, this is only bacon scented soap, but who knew bacon was so versatile?
Bacon is the ultimate flavor right? It’s even good enough to make into a cookie! And serve them for dinner as Pulp reader Jessica did this past weekend.
Described as “pretty good! Sweet and savory. And they’re gluten-free.” Seems like something you have to try at least once.
A stop at Price Busters brings these gems. Yes, the Kailua location reopened across the street from its original location.
Snickers Fudge (that tastes about the same as regular Snickers)
Jumbo remote control. This was seriously large.
Pill box that was just as large as the remote control. Fits in your pocket?! I don’t think so.
Coconut M&Ms are [...]
With Halloween right around the corner, you can have a killer party serving up Tru Blood beverages. These replica drinks from the HBO vampire series release the end of the month and are flavored with blood oranges, a Top Chef staple.
Just be ready to pay an arm and a leg for these drinks. It’s $16 [...]
Where do you get your frozen yogurt from? Luckily, Oahu will have 23 froyo locations jammed on to this island. Here’s a map showing 23 locations of Orange Tree (includes upcoming locations), Red Mango, Menchies, Yami, Yogurtland, Yogurt Mama, and TCBY.

Who will remain standing once the Froyo Wars [...]
How many frozen yogurt chains are there in Hawaii now? You know they all can’t make it here on this froyo saturated island. I can’t wait for the wars to begin and see who’s left standing.
The contenders:
Yogurtland – across from UH in that location that keeps changing vendors, Pearl City, and Hawaii Kai
Orange Tree – [...]
Sad, this package of 100 Calorie Right Bites has a single cookie in it.
It’s unopened and feeling the contents of the package, there is indeed one cookie inside this 100-calorie snack. I’ve been ripped off!
