I even had to put in on pinterest. I love that New Year's tradition, would love to have access to fingered citrons on Maui!

We had a ukulele growing up and I could always tune it but never play it. <br /><br /><br /><br />No, I have a twitter account but can't remember the password. However, I can share my information on the fingered citron is you want to contact me at wordstock16@yahoo.com. It is traditional that at the New Year, you break off fingers and give them to people who you want to have good luck.Ann Hindsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815568705079269126.post-5814170250820615332013-04-26T19:08:12.223-10:002013-04-26T19:08:12.223-10:00Santa Cruz Mountains, the coastal range south of S...Santa Cruz Mountains, the coastal range south of San Francisco and almost due west of San Jose.Lillian Csernicanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815568705079269126.post-68809465035757130462013-04-25T15:23:30.318-10:002013-04-25T15:23:30.318-10:00Yes, Jake's ukulele cd is inspiring, although ...Yes, Jake's ukulele cd is inspiring, although I would find it intimidating but then that's why I don't play ukulele. There's a wonderful ukulele festival every year on Maui at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center (MACC), free and open to the public for one day. Lots of kids and families.mauijungalownoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815568705079269126.post-3009709753999207532013-04-25T15:21:57.333-10:002013-04-25T15:21:57.333-10:00Amazing!
