Spinach and Squash Casserole

Description

Actor, comedian, improv specialist Kimee Balmilero is with us this week. Kimee has a great spirit and positive energy about her and it's been great to see her grow her craft on TV. She stared in Hawaii 5-0 and now Magnum PI she has been busy. And in this business, if you are getting gigs you are unemployed. I am happy to see her small stage improv showroom is opening back up again which took an abrupt sabbatical due to covid. This multi-talented local girl also is cooking this week with us in the Cooking Hawaiian Style Kitchen making her squash casserole.
