After my trip to Analog Coffee I sort of wandered around the neighborhood before deciding I’d trek to the market. I was needing a few things for the halloween soiree so I popped to the market DownUnder, which is the lower labyrinth of Pike Place Market. The lower levels of the market were actually constructed […]

Happy election night, everyone! I hope you’ve voted, and if not—you have until 8pm hits! Local elections are super important, as important as federal elections because they directly impact you and your local community. We submitted our ballots to the ballot drop box and await the count to begin! Seattle is voting on a bevy […]

The other Friday I decided I was needing to get out of the house so I went to a new-to-me place, b-side foods and Analog Coffee. I ordered the egg sandwich with ham added and an iced americano with oat milk. The weather was really quite rainy this day and when I got there thankfully […]

After years of being closed, Capitol Hill Seattle’s Tango has been resurrected as Bar Tango, including its famous El Diablo dessert! Kevin and I had been to the original Tango a handful of times—it’s near us, was near my old workplace and was a cute place for new lovebirds, at the time, we’re now old […]

The stuffed pork was from the butcher, pre stuffed with… stuffing. Haha. For this 1lbish stuffed tenderloin I cooked it at 375F for about 20-25mins […]

My grandma has never been to the opera before, so of course we had to take her! For this outing we went to see The Pirates of Penzance, in its Seattle Opera debut. Originally this show is from 1879 in New York City and it’s a comic opera—which was a first for me! I really […]

Happy halloween! For years we’ve hosted various soirées, but never a fully themed halloween party. This year we decided to do just that. Around 17 attended. Most photos in this are by me, but some are from Justan, Pablo and Kevin. Thanks for getting wide shots, which I totally neglected to do! Here is the […]

The day was beautiful and enhanced by getting to take family out to brunch! After a dreary couple of days we were treated to an absolutely glorious autumn day full of sunshine. We made our way downtown to Pike Place Market for lunch at Maximilien—a French restaurant that sits overlooking Elliott Bay. I never ever […]
