We got home tonight, along with several other folks. The same plane we rode out on left K Bay this morning and 6 1/2 hours later were were at Ft. Worth. Tonight it will be good to be in our bed.   Samuel K.

I believe it is okinawan sweet potato? I like the green tea, and Sam eats either Kona Coffee or coconut mac nut!!! Hope to see you all again in a terminal somewhere... Aloha for now!

It was great to finally get to come to the BFB event and meet everyone, even though we only got to attend one get-together. Phyllis, I think what you had was sweet potato. I saw some of the purple sweet potatoes at the Safeway. Sam and Pat...Sorry we did not get to visit with y'all more. Sounds like you have some great dining recommendations. We finally made it to Dave's. The green tea ice cream was great and so was the coconut macadamia. Our grandson was fascinated with the color of the green tea ice cream! He wanted to go back the next day and try the "purple" ice cream! Not sure what that was? Was it the purple sweet potato, also?   Samuel K.

Did you eat this at Gyotaku Japanese restraunt? It is one of my favorites and so is the green tea ice cream!!!Enjoy!!!

We meet Bertied & Gregg for lunch and I had some purple pudding that they said was tapoica, but what the heck made it purple?   James Sereyko Advanced Member Username: Jimak Post Number: 236 Registered: 12-2008 Posted on Sunday, January 31, 2010 - 05:52 am:    It was really nice meeting you Sam and Pat, sorry you could not be there tonight.
