Oh Wow!!!

I am speechless… which is a pretty difficult thing to do foa one Portagee. LOL.

Alexis over at Tales From The Back Acher, a wonderful Oregon blog, wen award me dis:

She writes, “Mokihana’s Garden is making the list this time because she’s just a kick in the pants to read (if you don’t mind hearing yourself reading like a Hawaiian speaks) and she likes chickens and God too, but not necessarily in that order.

I nevah had anything lidis befoa!! Wow! Mahalo nui, Alexis. I feel so…honored. I just write because I gotta. No can help. Da posts seem to decide if dey like be in pidgin or really good English. Honest. It’s outa my control! It means a lot to me that people would stop by for a visit to see what’s going on in the life of dis lolo [crazy] wahine.

Per the rules that are posted somewhere in cyberspace, I am passing on the award to my “kick in the pants” friend, Linda, over at Linda’s Log at Hawaiistories. She has me rolling in the aisles at times. It’s not just that she’s queen of da pidgin… it’s also that she puts a smile on my face even in the tough times.

Da award also stay going to goes to Napua ova hea.

Da third one goes to Jenster ova hea.

Dese two wahine always have good stuffs foa wala‘au about.
