Life in Hawaii through the perspective of the plate lunch. The Plate Lunch as served by Honolulu Mark is a mixed plate metaphor for the way people, their stories and their food, come together on one plate to make Hawaii paradise. Honolulu Mark has returned home to his Hawaii roots but eats, shoots and leaves extend to my second home, Seattle.

I Must Admit, It's a Good Cuppa Coffee
I'm no fan of Starbucks but, I must admit, the new Pike Place Roast is a good cup of brewed coffee; a straight, no-chaser, strong yet smooth, black coffee good.
People either love or hate that Starbuck's taste most often described as "burnt" or order a polymorphic concoction of milk and syrup to hide it. But look at the original logo hanging above the first Starbucks in the Pike Place Market; it says coffee, so shouldn't they be selling a good cup of coffee?
A really bad haiku on a good cup of coffee:
Coffee, a good cup,
coursing caffeine through my veins;
awake morning, noon, night!
