Egg-zact directions for Laie

The Makia Malo Storytelling Festival occurs 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday at the La'ie Hukilau near the Cackle Fresh Egg Outlet, which is at 55-730 Kamehameha Highway.

Enjoy food, games, massage, an herbal garden tour and Laie Hawaiian historical tour, plus lots of stories.

Donations accepted. Call 293-5533.

While you're there, make note of the egg store. It's important if you want to participate in the Tibetan Schedule, a series of events built around the visit of some Tibetan monks. Events run July 27-Aug. 8; headquarters is a house at 55-740 Kamehameha Highway. Take Cackle Fresh Road (right after the store), go left after the road forks, about 1/4 mile down. The house is about 100 yards on the left.

Information: 293-5533, or Melissa at 524-9588.

In any event, the Cackle Fresh Egg Outlet not only has a lotta fresh eggs, it's got Traci, who cheerfully provided directions to all of the above. She's definitely sunny side up!

HIFF hosts 'Serenade'

"Love Serenade," a surreal Australian comedy that won the Best First Film award at last year's Cannes International Film Festival, makes its Hawaii debut at the Hawaii Theatre at 7 p.m. on July 22.

"Love Serenade" croons the dilemma of two 20-something sisters who have set ideas about love, but can't seem to fulfill them in rural Australia. When a thrice divorced, disco-playing, mid-40s radio disc jockey moves in next door, the sisters become enveloped by his fishy attractions.

General admission tickets are $6; $4 for members of the Hawaii International Film Society. To order call 528-0506.
