From the beach in my front yard again.

Today on the way home from work I stopped by the pizza place that's on the way and got a "South Seas" pizza (basically hawaiian with some more stuff on it), and when I got home a plunked down on the beach and had my south seas pizza, while watching the South Seas!

My lifetime living in Hawaii and my first (and poor) guess was breadfruit tree, but I'm at least proud of myself that I immediately realized my mistake and correctly identified it as the lauhala tree. haha You can make a hat! :D

Here's a video showing someone making one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U18JcG-RGU8n (not a tutorial, though)

Apparently HGTV made a tutorial?? haha http://www.hgtv.com/handmade/how-to-make-a-lauhala-hat/index.html

But there are a bunch of things online about lauhala weaving, it's what the Hawaiians used to make a ton of stuff out of, like mats (which are still used today!) and baskets, etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauhala

sure as hell isn't Southern California, is it? And what an adorable tree!!! I also especially like the very lean-y one in the background. Can't help but envy you eating a South Seas pizza while viewing the South Seas, seriously cool.

Haha I hadn't noticed that one in the background. It looks like its photo-bombing!
