#HMBMomsIRL Treat Yourself Luncheon at Anna Miller's Restaurant

Anna Miller's Restaurant was extremely gracious in hosting our #HMBMomsIRL Treat Yourself Luncheon last month.

We were treated to a yummy meal, and of course, PIE!

Chicken Pot Pie

Fried Rice Loco Moco

Fried Rice Omelette

California Benedict

Kalbi Ribs

Chicken & Waffles

Ground Steak

Anna Miller's is known for their breakfasts, but they also serve a lot of local and comfort food faves, like pot pies and kalbi!  I love breakfast, so I had a special of the day, the Fried Rice Omelette.  It was enormous!

Blueberry Cheesecake Pie

Peanut Butter & Chocolate Pie

Strawberry Cheesecake Pie

The Strawberry Cheesecake Pie was amazing!  If you love cheesecake, get this pie!  And you must get it with ice cream!

Thank you to Anna Miller's Restaurant, Nadia and Nat, the moms who attended (and donated to the Hawaii Food Bank), and all of our amazing sponsors who donated prizes and favors!

Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery

A visit to Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery means having to face difficult choices.

Do you treat yourself to malasadas, ice cream, cake bombs, or bread pudding?

Whether you have a favorite (mine is the aforementioned bread pudding - made with malasadas!), or you want to try something new (we love how Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery often introduces new flavors and new items, such as the Malamode and Mochi Bubble Waffle Cone), you will be sure to find something to satisfy your sweet tooth at Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery!

On a recent visit, I picked up two popular flavors of Cake Bombs - Cereal and Lemon!

We have been covering Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery since they opened three years ago, and it's always a treat to return!
