Cheap & Chic: The Goodwill Designer Accessory...

Today we are thrilled to share this post from one of our favorite local fashion bloggers, Tina Witherspoon of Glam.Spoon. Not only does Tina run a freaking amazing blog about freaking amazing fashion, with a focus on the affordable (no wonder we dig it), she also designs her own original line of sustainable and recycled clothes and accessories. (And I kind of want them all.) Today she’s here to tell you about the best...

Greenlake Adventure Run: An oldie but goodie

Greenlake Adventure Run: An oldie but goodie...

So some of you may go to the SAM this Thursday, but if you don’t like the massive First Thursday crowd then do something that could equally enrich your life. Go on the Greenlake Adventure Run! Photo courtesy of Greenlake Adventure Run and RoadRunner Sports Now, you might remember that we actually posted about this last year. So the fact that we’re posting about it again must mean something. And it does. Because for the...

Magic Mushrooms: Pioneer Square Sprouts a Mushroom...

I know it’s still chilly outside (hopefully you took advantage of the incredible snow at Steven’s Pass this weekend with some skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing or tubing), but spring is definitely in the air. There is actual blue in the sky, I just agreed to pass out flyers for Seattle Tilth’s Edible Plant Sale and the city is making plans to plant a public orchard. Spring is coming. And if you want to check...

Weekend Round-Up: 2/24-2/26...

It’s the weekend, yo! I don’t know how a short week could feel so long, but hot diggity, I barely survived. No worries though, because the universe is rewarding me with a weekend so full of awesomeness that it’s practically bursting at the seams. Free beer, facials, movie are all on the agenda, and that’s just the beginning. Stop working, start playing and share this post with your friends so you can...

Drink Local: Washington Beer Open House

Drink Local: Washington Beer Open House...

I’m a big proponent of specializing. There are some things I do well (like scouring the internet for free and cheap stuff to do in Seattle), and things I don’t do well (that list is really long but includes, amongst other things, solving complicated math equations and any sport that involves a keen sense of balance). So I embrace what I’m good at and start a blog to put my obsession to good use. The Pacific...

Okay kids, let’s keep this short. It’s Wednesday, you’re busy, and you can’t deal with another night of leftover enchilada casserole. (Don’t ask.)

Umpqua: Did not pay for this advertisement

Umpqua: Did not pay for this advertisement...

When a funny looking bank started popping up around Seattle, I took notice. Especially after I decided to ditch the evil corporation that shall remain nameless (but it rhymes with ank of shamerica). I have no idea where Umpqua stands on bail outs or lay offs, but I do like their easy breezy look and feel. Everything about them is inviting, like they understand each particular neighborhood and they represent each one in a...

Knock knock. (Who’s there?) To. (To who?) To WHOM. Happy Tuesday, y’all! Who doesn’t love to start their day with a cheesy knock knock joke? And bonus: now you have an icebreaker for your 2pm meeting. You are WELCOME. Just be sure you say the punchline in a smug voice, okay?

Weekend Round-Up: February 17-19

Weekend Round-Up: February 17-19...

It’s gonna be another rain-filled weekend, gang. You can either do what I did during last week’s rain-filled weekend, and sit your ass on the couch until it’s Sunday. Or you can do what I’m going to do this weekend, which is stuff – fun stuff. Like hike in the rain! Go to the spa! Do taxes! If none of that sounds as appealing to you as it does to me, here are a few other suggestions: -Damien Jurado will be wooing...

Othello Night Market: Celebrate the Year of the Dragon

Othello Night Market: Celebrate the Year of the Dr...

Sometimes I feel like I’ve already done everything there is to do in Seattle. I mean, there are only so many combinations of flannel, salmon, microbrews, hikes through temperate rainforest and trips to Pike Place Market that one can experience before you feel the fatigue. But then I take a quick peak at a map and am reminded that if I just hop on the Light Rail, there is a whole other universe south of Columbia City...
