WOW WOW WOW!! This is so overwhelming. Tea, books, a cookbook, beautiful handmade bookmarks, chocolate covered macadamia nuts, soap, pineapple chapstick, sticky notes and tabs, magnet and some yummy Hawaiian mixes. The card was so nice. Yes, everything arrived safe and sound. So very thoughtful of you to do all of this, thank you. Off to make some yummy tea and look at recipes💕

LeahBergen Wow!! This is magnificent! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 7y
LeahBergen What kind of tea is that? 7y
DebinHawaii Yay! I'm glad you got it safely & are enjoying it @mjdowens ! 🌺❤️Thanks for #livingaloha with me! 😀 7y
DebinHawaii @LeahBergen I think I put mango peach & poha berry in there. (I'm getting forgetful though!)😜 7y
mjdowens Yes. That is exactly what they are. Never heard of poha berry so that is what I am drinking now. So tasty. 7y

I ❤️ love getting up early to sit by the Christmas 🎄 tree and read. This is Paradise is amazing. I found it originally looking for books 📚 set in Hawaii. It was on a Goodreads list. Then I saw it again when @DebinHawaii had her #livingaloha giveaway. I happened to have it checked out from the library. Started it and can‘t put it down. We are thinking of taking our family vacation in February to Hawaii.

DebinHawaii I am glad you are enjoying the book! 🌺❤️ 7y

Feeling lucky this morning as I was given an e-book #ARC for this 7th book in the Bakeshop Mystery cozy series--due out in January. It doesn't have a pic of the cover on the e-book so I pasted one in.😆The titles and covers of this series are always so fun--not to mention that they make me hungry for baked goods.🍪🥐🍰But I'll 'settle' for avocado toast.😋Names are loaded & about to find out the lucky winner of my #livingaloha giveaway, Back soon!

Ms_T Well done! 7y
batsy Your pasting skills are on point 😁 I'm always sad when the ebook ARC doesn't have the cover #CoversAreFun 7y
DebinHawaii @Ms_T 😀 @batsy Me too! Especially the fun covers but I guess I shouldn't complain--it was free. 😆 7y

✨This is my #livingaloha post for @DebinHawaii #payitforward giveaway.
✨This is the man who raised me (my grandpa) and myself. Unfortunately, I lost him in 2014, but he is my definition of #livingaloha as he was the kindest and most compassionate man I've ever met. It is in his honor and a couple others that I lead the life I do. 💜
✨ Congratulations to Debin! 🎉👏📚

BarbaraTheBibliophage Hey, my friend, you‘ve got the tags spelled wrong. It‘s #livingaloha...so I‘m tagging just to be sure @DebinHawaii sees this sweet post. ❤️ 7y

This is my YOU-friend, Plum (YOU is a mindfulness/micro-action app with people just as kind as Littens), on the left. She drove an hour to come and help me organize our books and DVDs which the movers had put on the shelves willy-nilly (backwards m, upside-down and totally out of order -arrgh!)!! She was one of the first people to come to visit and her generosity of spirit is truly a #livingaloha!

A generous #giveaway for amazing milestones by

mjdowens An amazing and true friend💕 7y
TrishB That‘s lovely ❤️ 7y
Ms_T She‘s a keeper! ❤️ 7y
DebinHawaii Great pick and Plum is definitely a great example of kindness, care and living aloha. 🌺❤️Mahalo for joining in! 7y

The wonderful @DebinHawaii is hosting a giveaway for hitting two major Litsy milestones. Congratulations, Deb!

This is part of my #livingaloha - family, friends, books, Litsy.

LibrarianRyan You have my taste in wall color. I miss those walls. 😁 7y
julesG @LibrarianRyan Thank you. I love green. 😁 After I had painted one accent wall, I decided to use what was left of the paint to repaint this large wooden board that I hang pictures onto (picture top left). My daughter has a midnight blue accent wall in her room. 7y
LibrarianRyan @julesG in my purple house the living room was that shade of green. My new living room is also a shade of green but the lights make it look yellow. 7y
julesG @LibrarianRyan Sounds like you need a darker shade of green, next time. 7y
DebinHawaii Great pictures--family and friends and books you love are all part of living aloha. 🌺❤️Mahalo for joining in! 7y
