Did you ask him why his musubi mold is a different shape from the musubi sound holes in his ukuleles?

no, but I wondered that too when I saw the picture in the email. I will ask him next time I speak with him and report back in this space.

Just ordered a 3XL "Spam Loves Maui" T-shirt to wear as a nightie. I find that 3XL T-shirts make good nightwear.

Stopped to grab some lunch after physical therapy, and this was the only place in the mall with a line.

A traditional Japanese onigiri or omusubi is formed by hand into a triangular shape similar to the KoAloha sound hole.

The Spam musubi is shaped to the slice of Spam, so you need a Spam shaped mold.

That is true, but now practically everyone who is not familiar with a traditional onigiri is now really confused about why the Koaloha "musubi" sound hole does not look like the spam musubi mold that he also invented.

I like to use an empty spam can for my musubi mold.

I could never quite master the skill to pull this off! Now we don't mess around and just use the Sumo 9 mold.

No skills required, use it like a cookie cutter.

A new musubi place opened in our town a couple of months ago. The most expensive thing on the menu? - wild salmon? - no. Crab? - not. Tuna? - unh, unh. It's the SPAM.

Walmart carries vegetarian spam. Maybe by next August I'll get it all together and make me some Spam Musubi.

is that for 2?

I love anything Spam! But my fav is the old pan fried with bright yellow mustard. One of life’s wonders!

Yeah, probably so. Their banner on the opposite side of the kiosk explains they offer everything in three sizes, so what I pointed out is likely not apples to apples. Just thought it was amusing.

I haven't tried the place out yet but will start with the spam when I do. Goes along with my New Year's resolution to eat more Cheetos.
