Aloha Friday Picks: Visit Baby Goats, Make Chex Mix or Join a Virtual Home Show
Get outside or stay in with these three weekend ideas.
Aloha Friday Picks is a weekly news blog that will run every Friday and features three things we recommend you do, try or experience over the weekend. Send us tips at media@hawaiimagazine.com.
The one good thing to come out of the COVID-19 pandemic? A lot of events are now virtual; meaning we can attend workshops, take classes or even join a virtual home show without leaving home. Here are three things we’re doing this weekend.

Whip up this popular Hawaiʻi snack, a more savory take on the usual sweet Chex Mix. This recipe calls for soy sauce (or shoyu, as we call it in the Islands) and furikake, a dry Japanese seasoning consisting of seaweed. Get the recipe here.
