One of the many, many things that I enjoy about this back-to-school experience is finally trying sorting out public transport around Seattle. I actually really enjoy taking the bus – I like the views, the early morning at the bus stop, the view out the bus window (even in the pouring rain)… and I LOVE […]

Seattle-ites (buzz buzz)
Occasionally I go through phases where I think I need to give up coffee. Usually when I start thinking that, I wind up drinking MORE. I don’t drink a lot – I mostly stop at one morning cup though a couple times a week (or more) I might have gone to get a latte in […]

Guess who got accepted to The University of Washington and is starting this Fall????!!
Seattle Livin’
I am always hesitant to post pics like these because our gorgeous Seattle weather is such a well-kept secret. But there you go – it doesn’t actually rain that much and we have plenty of glorious, sunny days. West Seattle is quite possibly my favorite area of Seattle. There are two parts – there’s […]
Konnichiwa, Seattle!
Husband and I like to occasionally take an afternoon to romp around downtown Seattle – we really enjoy this city and our “favorite neighborhood” is constantly changing as we discover new things. Most recently, we (re)discovered Pioneer Square – particularly a couple of shops down there that I love. So when he said we were […]
food, glorious food
We went over to Vashon Island yesterday, and found ourselves at Sea Breeze Farm‘s La Boucherie. Oh, how the angels wept. Hands down, one of the most incredible meals we’ve ever had.
my new year
TODAY begins my new year celebration, so to speak. Today is my birthday and I’ll happily tell you that I’m 35. THIRTY FIVE! Wow. When I was in my 20s, I truly couldn’t wait to be 30. My 20s sucked. Granted, that “living in Europe” thing was pretty great, but overall, I was happy to […]
a thousand or two words
I haven’t posted any pictures in ages, though I’ve been taking thousands. And I still have to post about my incredible Michelin Star restaurant/Spain experience… Sigh. And there was Thanksgiving – we picked up our pastured turkey at the farm (it had just been killed and processed super early that morning). Of course, the gizzards […]
gobble gobble
I think I miss my blog. I just realized it’s been going for about 10 years now – though I’ve removed or drafted most of the older posts. I regret that I DELETED some because sometimes it does me well to remember things. I miss talking about all the stuff I used to and it’s […]
interim
I still have lots to post from our Spain/Holland trip, and pictures… but in the meantime (while I finish uploading and editing photos) – FARMERS MARKETS! SEATTLE! UTOPIA! I thought, because I hadn’t frozen/canned/preserved enough vegetables this summer, that I was doomed to two season of shopping at Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s. And honestly? […]
