Waiting

Carpet patterns in a waiting room in Waimea, Hawaii

Happily, I don’t spend a lot of time in waiting rooms, but when I do, I tend to look around rather than at my phone. These carpet tiles at my optometrist caught my eye. They might have been designed to warm me up for my upcoming exam!

The idea of The Numbers Game is to enter a number into the search bar of your computer and then post a selection of the photos that turn up. This week’s number is 232. Captions are on the photos. You can see more responses here.

Huli chicken

Huli chicken at GJ's in Waimea in Hawaii

Huli chicken is an Hawaiian dish, first created in 1955 by Ernest Morgado of Pacific Poultry. The chicken is marinated in a sweet and savory sauce, then grilled on a rotating spit. Huli is the Hawaiian word for turn, hence the name.

These photos were taken at GJ’s Huli Chicken, which operates in Waimea on the weekends. It’s easy to tell when they’re open because the smoke drifts across the road and the aroma is unmistakable!
