Weekend Round-Up: 4/29-5/1

Weekend Round-Up: 4/29-5/1...

In case you missed it, someone’s getting married today. And luckily we all don’t have to fly over to England, buy an expensive gift or have small talk with royalty. We can watch the parade happen in our pjs, eating crumpets and drinking tea all on Youtube for free! Now if only we can attend all weddings like that. Here’s your weekend round-up gang: -Okay, it’s not necessarily cheap but I’ve...
Twofer Thursday: Sign up for freebies!

Twofer Thursday: Sign up for freebies!...

This is gonna be short and sweet because I have a lot going on this week (did that rhyme? ugh, I hate when that happens). Anyway, here we go: Photo courtesy of dicktay2000 -Sew Up Seattle is such a great program for all ages, genders and levels of sewers. I’ve gone a few times and made many cute, albeit it beginner, pieces. They have their own sewing machines and enough fabric to build a city, but you’re welcome...
Mighty-O Donuts: Free of animals, “flavors” and so much more

Mighty-O Donuts: Free of animals, “flavors&#...

Mighy-O Donuts isn’t like your average doughnut establishment, which may be full of flavor but god only knows what else it could be full of. Instead, this vegan donutery maintains the yummy taste, but lost all the mystery ingredients. Using only certified organic ingredients, every Mighty-O Donut contains NO: -chemical preservatives -hydrogenated oils (meaning no trans fat) -colorings or artificial flavorings -animal...

Happy Feet: Stylus Salon Happy Hour Pedicure Givea...

In Seattle, most of us aren’t going to be rocking sandals year-round (and if you are that weird person who wears Tevas in December, please stop). Maybe that’s why I’ve had such a hard time tracking down a good, affordable mani-pedi in the city- it seems like most are either uber-fancy, with the price tag to match, or affordable, but kind of sketchy (at least to my germ-phobic self). Thankfully, I recently...
Art Talk: The Sorrento Hotel Chats About Nick Cave, Dance, and Costumes

Art Talk: The Sorrento Hotel Chats About Nick Cave...

I love today’s event for a multitude of reasons: first, it has to do with the Nick Cave exhibit currently on display at the Seattle Art Museum, which I’ve seen and am pretty in love with. (Costumes, dancing and crazy music? Of course I love it.) Second, it takes place at one of my favorite places in the city to go escape, the Fireside Room at the Sorrento Hotel. Whether you go for the costume talk, the quiet...
Weekend Round-Up: 4/22-4/24

Weekend Round-Up: 4/22-4/24...

The good news: the weather widget on my phone claims that it may hit 66 degrees on Saturday. The bad news: it’s rainy and cold again by Monday.  Don’t waste your chance to pretend it’s spring, and do something awesome this weekend, like this: The World Rhythm Festival brings over 100 performers to Seattle Center this weekend, and admission is FREE! Go ask for more good weather in the middle of a drum...
5 Courses, $10, Lots of Love: Humble Feast Dinners

5 Courses, $10, Lots of Love: Humble Feast Dinners...

While I constantly sing the praises of a great deal on food, that doesn’t mean that I get excited over all cheap eats- unless I’m on a road trip in dire circumstances, there’s nothing on Taco Bell’s menu that will lure me in (even these mutant Dorito taco shell monstrosities). I will happily spend money on food made or raised with love. When these loves come together and I find a great deal on good...
Free tacos at Whole Foods: Cinco de Mayo just came a little early

Free tacos at Whole Foods: Cinco de Mayo just came...

If you haven’t gone to Marination Mobile do yourself a favor, wait a little too long in line and get yourself some yummy eats. I’ve had a few things off the menu and everything is quite delicious. The mastermind behind the food truck is none other than Drew Airone, who now is the chef at Whole Foods Market in Roosevelt Square. Photo courtesy of Whole Foods Market Airone, who has been working in the Seattle...
In case you needed a cheap wedding dress, let’s talk: A review

In case you needed a cheap wedding dress, let̵...

When I got engaged, I had to come to terms that EVERYTHING would cost us $$$. But I did have some kind of control. Especially in the wedding dress department. And after doing a good ol’ fashion hunt for the dress, I thought I’d give you guys a list of places to hit. Photo courtesy of bouncyboutique -Nordstroms: I know, I know – it’s a big, bad mall type store in the midst of a lot of cool, local...
