Fish speared, then grilled over Open Fire in Banana leaves for Mom. Maui, Hawai’i

[@snarzary1338]

Awww... Mommy had tears in her eyes... So beautiful.

[@libbyannsannicolas6297]

I have to agree with you about doing such a sweet thing for your Mom. It's how I feel about my Mom. I always want my family to feel loved when I cook for them💕

[@damondoyle7824]

Even though we have watched the newer videos, it's so nice to see a genuine, kind-hearted daughter honor her parents.

[@dejanlukic889]

Kimi you're an awesome mom!!!!! this world needs people like you

[@zuhairzainal]

an overgrown orchard is the best kind as it nourishes the soil and any fish cooked wrapped in banana leaf deserves a double thumbs up!

[@richarda.valdes1197]

Beautiful natural woman, mom , daughter and wife. More beauty in her little finger than any model. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@melodypatau3539]

Love your videos, this one made me cry. Your mom, your baby, your husband, you...what a precious package you all make.

[@julieanderson5184]

Momma eating your fish while feeding Buddy made me cry. My mom passed 9mo after my daughter was born. So blessed.

[@maluhialovedog]

Kimi, you are a great daughter! Prayers of strength and Aloha to your Mama and your whole Ohana!

[@SteadyBark96720]

Hands down, the Best cooking show on the internet 👍🏾🤙🏾

[@Lambsear565]

Yes it is 😋😄

[@BzBushy]

I tried not to cry when you were holding Buddy and explaining to your mama how you caught the fish for her and how you prepared it. I wasn’t ready. So I ended up tearing up. I recently lost my Mameh and seeing you with yours is a blessing. I love that you honor her. I love your transparency. A perfect moment captured with OHANA. It is the circle of life.🙏🏾 ⭕️

[@kimiwerner]

Thank you so much 🙏🏽❤️

[@urbanlady1.]

I am really touched how much you care for your family and especially making your Mom so happy making that delicious fish with your home made macadamia pesto covered with sweet potato greens wrapped and backed over a open fire yum ! Thanks for making this video and you have a great channel ! Thanks to Justin your husband behind the seen filming and editing ! I wish your Mom well !

[@elapheysal]

Thanks for being a part of this community and your feedback is amazing.

[@supertrouper2550]

The last scene with you feeding your mom and Buddy..so totally moving. Thank you for sharing such a special moment.

[@jhogan8606]

The moment with your mom was such a sweet, and tender moment. I couldn't help but cry. So sweet. ❤

[@ntr-cptr7709]

I'm tickled when you went through the hedges! 🤣 You are without a doubt, youthful at heart. I love you channel and look forward to every new episode. Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@kimiwerner]

Humor and curiosity keep us young

[@GODMAMASHOUSE]

Why are my eyes wet? I love this video so very much. Loved the moment Mom saw the big fish and especially when she used her chopsticks to grab that piece that was hanging on when you held up the fish! SO SWEET! HEY BUDDY!!!! MAD LOVE!

[@eyeballs306]

Your videos move me to the core. I’m from the Bay Area and I can see it now so many women criticizing you for how you rises Buddy saying he’s being “endangered” but u know what? He’s going to grow up to be so healthy, not allergic to everything and anything, loving and respecting the the land and sea.. but also just a man filled with love and flowing out to others. There is something SO RIGHT when I watch your videos.. in contrast to everything that’s happening in this world. Mahalo ke akua. ❤️ 🤙🏽

[@thereisa]

I also live in the Bay Area, but there are a lot of Bay Area hippies just like her and raising their babies in similar fashion, especially the climbing, camping, and mushroom hunting community. Not everyone is a mean suburb mom :)

[@jodyandmichelle1]

I'm not crying, you're crying.

[@ckimoto]

You are so awesome. This video really warms my heart. ❤️❤️❤️. Love your videos!

[@garrickclau]

[@cammienguyen345]

U’re such a carefree... loving person. Bless you, your beautiful soul and lovely family.

[@andreewoodson]

Your mom is beautiful, Kimi! I'm glad she was feeling up to visiting with you and your family. And watching your mom feed buddy and you feed your mom was precious. Thank you for sharing your life with us.

[@misndaainaleighton2947]

I'm so sorry about your mom, it's tough watching our parents age. Easy to see why you are so pretty. Thank you for sharing this precious moment.

[@vt2730]

I just love how natural you are and how you are so in tune with your environment. I especially love how you care for and honor your mom....the spirit of Ohana.

[@katierichardson6146]

This is the best! And I love the reward of the end result after gathering, working (prepping) and getting it together so naturally

Hi Kelly love your videos. Love you. Even your man blue Gabe makes awesome videos.

[@havewheelslovesailing]

Your mum is such a darling, I think she got up because she knew the effort you put into that fish for her. In New Zealand we call sweet potatoes, Kumara, white ones that are blue inside we call Hawaiian blues.
