Who’s Hu Ke Lau?
My dad has a special juice glass that he has used since he was a child. It’s a six-ounce juice glass with a faded tropical scene and the words “Hu Ke Lau” written across the front. I don’t know where he got it but he cherishes that glass. My dad is a rough guy who is constantly covered in sawdust, and as a result, the last person who comes to mind when the topic of antique glassware is mentioned.
Nevertheless, Hu Ke Lau is basically a part of our family. If it sounds odd to you that I am referring to an inanimate object as a part of our family, think about how much stranger it is for me.
Today, I used Hu Ke Lau for my blueberry smoothie recipe. Welcome to Hollywood, Hu Ke Lau.
