Ceramics by Dora

From Dora’s page: “My artworks are my way of storytelling. With each piece, I endeavor to weave the spellbinding tales of nature that surround me. I try to capture and enfold the hidden narratives of the wild, the stories that the chirping birds and rustling leaves whisper in my ears. Each tiny detail from the wilderness, every texture, every hue, is an opportunity for me to give voice to the silent narratives of the overgrown forest, to channel my love for nature into the tangible form of ceramics”.

Ruff Seas Logo.jpg

Dawn from Ruff Seas Treats has been creating drool-worthy, tail-wagging delicious treats for three years that your canine family members will beg for your attention! The treats are handcrafted from all-natural human-grade ingredients! Why are the Seas Ruff? We’re glad you asked… When math teacher, Dawn, quit her job, sold her house and took off for the Caribbean aboard her Tayana 42, Windbird, she packed her sense of adventure - but forgot to bring enough treats for her loveable boat dog, Piper! Dawn quickly discovered that dog treats are a rare commodity in the islands. No matter, she started experimenting with baking her own treats on board Windbird’s impressive 3’ by 3’ galley! Over time, she developed a number of recipes that utilize locally sourced ingredients to create fresh, healthy biscuits that a wide variety of dogs couldn’t get enough of (to say nothing to their humans!). With five delicious sweet and savory flavors, even the pickiest of eaters and diet-restricted pups will find something to chew into: -Banana Beet Biscuits -Ginger Snap Biscuits -Tuna Turmeric Biscuits -CheddaBacon Biscuits -Nutty ‘Naner Biscuits The Ruff Seas dream was born in the Caribbean, but it wasn’t until the beloved Windbird was sold and Dawn moved back to the Pacific Northwest that she knew the time was right to share her biscuits (all Piper approved of course) with the world. Bring your pooch with and stop by her booth to have your pup try Ruff Seas Treats. New Product! Dawn makes adorable glass treat jars to help your pup's favorite Ruff Seas Treats stay fresh on your counter.

Da Q.PNG

Da Q Shack comes about as a third iteration of my family's love for BBQ. It is truly a marvel how the low and slow method of cooking and smoking meats provides such tenderness in every bite.

Having a BBQ trailer and restaurant on the Big Island of Hawaii for over 5 years has taught us not only about BBQ but also the love and compassion that locals share for one another. This is what we try and replicate in the love that we put into our BBQ.  This leads us to say that our "Texas Style" BBQ is "Made with Aloha!"

So, if your looking for good BBQ that you can also share with friends and family, just sick back and chill and leave the smokin to us!
