    From the National Today site:
    When I lived on Oahu, we lived off Kamehameha highway (it wraps around almost the whole island). Dumb white girl here pronounced it as "Kah-me-kah-me-hah" For a bit before getting the hang of it: "Kuh-may-a-may-a" in case you wondered.

    [​IMG]

    Channel your inner Pacific Islander and throw a luau complete with leis, Lays, getting laid, and pigs on the spit you dug yourself while drinking a pina colada:

    ½ fresh pineapple, peeled, cut into 1½-inch pieces
    6 ounces sweetened cream of coconut (preferably Coco López)
    2 ounces unsweetened coconut milk
    8 ounces white rum
    2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    2 ounces dark rum (optional)
    Maraschino cherries and lime wedges (for serving)

    Preparation

    Step 1
    Place pineapple pieces in a resealable plastic bag, laying them flat. Freeze until solid, at least 3 hours.

    Step 2
    Shake cream of coconut and coconut milk in their cans before measuring. Purée pineapple, cream of coconut, coconut milk, white rum, lime juice, and 3 cups ice (about 15 oz.) in a blender until smooth. Transfer blender cup to freezer and freeze until mixture is thickened (it should be the consistency of a milkshake), 25–35 minutes.

    Step 3
    Blend again until mixture is the perfect slushy frozen drink consistency. Divide among glasses. Top off each with ½ oz. dark rum, if using, and garnish each with a cherry and lime wedge.

    Do Ahead: Pineapple can be chopped 3 months ahead. Keep frozen.

    I think a liquor store run is in order, because that sounds delish.

    Happy Friday, idiots! Enjoy this early taste of summer. It's gonna be a hot one.

    I have the worst luck with blended drinks. Either there are huge chunks of ice or it's blended so fine, it melts almost immediately.

    The blender makes a huge difference, what kind do you use?

    I bought a 1000 watt Ninja that was on sale for $65 I think. I don't use it daily but it makes the occasional smoothie or blended alchy drink really well. From reviews it looks like the Vitamix is really only better if you use it daily due to blade wear and quality.

    And here I thought this was going to be a DragonBall Z thread. My disappointment level is now over 9000.

    I've had my Vitamix about 10 years now and it's seriously the best kitchen gadget I own. Well worth the money in my opinion.

    My brother gave me one of those big Blendtecs he scored online. I used it mostly for making the base gravy for indian food. I ended up getting an immersion blender that works much easier and doesnt take up huge real estate on the counter. I only dabbled in bullet proof coffee and smoothies a little bit. With keto these bright colored blended drinks are kind of out the window. I have been making mojitos with bourbon rather than rum lately and they have been great.

    We took the kid to a Ninja gym yesterday. I did better at it than the expectations I had for myself. For a 40 year old that's walking around about 50 pounds heavier than he should be, I'm pretty ninja. I made it up the tallest warped wall with ease, but I don't think it is as tall as the one on the show. This is the type of training I could get addicted to.

    Yeah, something like that.

    I actually have awesome hair. I grow it out and donate it for wigs for cancer patients. Donated about seven times, I think.

    well that kills the joke. Good for you man!

    my hair is so damn thick that it causes a major overheating issue for me in the summer, which in Texas is like 9 months out of the year. I have to just take clippers to it at either a #1.5 or 2. And the issue has only gotten worse now that I’ve become extremely, extremely heat-sensitive post-covid. Like anything over 85° just fucking sucks now.

    good thing my wife doesn’t give a shit about scars because my head looks like the backside of the moon

    I'm rocking the covid haircut and need to get rid of some to save myself from the neck pain and headaches. What's the minimum they take for donated hair?

    I lopped off all my hair for a very short cut in highschool and the lady told me it wasn't long enough to donate which I think looking back was bullshit. I think she didn't know how to donate it. It was like 8" of hair. I cried after that haircut.

    My hair is very thick too - not as in I have alot of it, but as in each individual hair is thick as hell. When we did that experiment in high school where you looked at your hair under the microscope mine looked like fucking cables. My friends still talk about how I can dive into a pool and when I come up for air my (freshly washed and totally not greasy) hair is actually dry, like a duck shedding water.
