re. Kava Kava

Billy the Crud and I bought a huge bag of the Kava from a Samoan at the Pacific Islander Festival after sharing a few bowls with him. Kate got interested in it after watching us slug it back, and when we didn't keel over or start barking like dogs (it just numbs your mouth and puts you in a strange dream/cognitive state, man I really had weird dreams that night!) she looked like she wanted some. Come to think of it, I think she's the one who later donated her stocking to use as the sieve to strain the Kava liquid through!

Kate was great at really being interested in the true native experience, if you would have asked her to go live on a remote South Sea Island for a year, she probably would have done it and worked to make the place like the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse in no time flat, coconut mugs gleaming in the sun, all in a row.

Gonna miss that lady.
