Valentines Day Seattle Underworld Tour: Be Still My Heart

Valentines Day Seattle Underworld Tour: Be Still M...

February brings us many gifts: a break from my neurotic New Year’s Resolutions (cleanse? what cleanse?), a 3-day weekend for a holiday that nobody actively celebrates (Presidents’ Day, right?) and sunsets being delayed until at least 4:45pm. (That’s big for me.) But it also means Valentines Day, which, for me at least, can be very hit-or-miss. Don’t get me wrong- I love love. It’s awesome and my...

Weekend Round-Up: January 27-29...

Are you guys so excited about the weekend? It’s going to be awesome. The snow is gone, the sun is supposed to shine all day Saturday, and there are so many fun things happening in Seattle. If you want to be just like me, you can celebrate my birthday by dressing as Wonder Woman! If you would prefer to do your own, non-costumed thing, I’ve still got you covered. Rock on with your weekend, Seattle. -Last week we...

Short and Sweet: The Coolest Thing You’ll Do...

I’m not gonna go on and on about my hair or anything. Instead, I’m gonna give it to you fast. Go to Sorrento Hotel this Wednesday. The place that gives you such great FREE  events like Night School Silent Readings and Fellini Film Fridays (even though their site says Wednesdays, just trust me that it happens on Fridays. Oh, silly websites) is now giving you something else for free to enjoy. Head over to their...
Weekend Round-Up: January 20-22

Weekend Round-Up: January 20-22...

Holy Snosanity 2012, Seattle. Are y’all surviving? More importantly, are you enjoying the crap out of this weather? My days have been filled with sledding, ice walks, frolicking snow dog, building Snow Trogdor, and more cups of coffee than you can shake a snowman at. This Texas girl is in love with our city all the time, but especially when everything is covered in frozen, sparkling, snowy white. If snow were a...
Handmade Valentine Swap

Handmade Valentine Swap...

Image courtesy of The Stationery Place     Do y’all remember what Valentine’s Day was like when we were kids? Nobody put pressure on us to make fancy dinner reservations. We didn’t have to buy extravagant gifts. Cheesy diamond commercials were never directed at us (I’m looking at you, Kay Jewelers). We didn’t even have to worry about forgetting the day itself because how would we ever...

GIVEAWAY: Win 2 Tickets to New Year Libations Cock...

Cheers to hoping that you’re finished with the crazy cleanse you committed to after that wicked New Year’s Eve hangover. A new year shouldn’t mean swearing off booze altogether- instead, you should be swear off bad booze and focus on being a little more selective in your imbibing. Well, Google Places and Seattleite Magazine are here to help you swear off buying vodka that comes in a plastic bottle forever...

Give it a Try: $2 classes all around Seattle

Give it a Try: $2 classes all around Seattle...

I went swimming the other day and was reminded how much I love it. Sure, there’s a crap ton of people right at your heel and you only have an hour to go, go, go and I’m almost always disoriented when I first get there – but besides all that, it truly is great (especially with this waterproof mp3 player). My favorite pool is now Greenlake’s Evans because of the hot hot hot sauna and the easy parking in the winter. But...
Spring Has Arrived!

Spring Has Arrived!...

Okay, not really. It’s raining, gray, and freaking freezing outside. Spring is actually still months away. BUT! Starting this Friday, you can pretend it’s Spring by heading to the Erickson Theater Off Broadway for Balagan Theater’s production of Spring Awakening. Image courtesy of Balagan Theater Okay, maybe that was a stretch. But it’s still a damn fine musical. Set in 1890 Germany, Spring Awakening...

Weekend Round-Up: NYE Edition...

Congratulations, y’all. You made it through the holiday season. The presents have been given, the meals have been made, the dishes are done, and you can finally collapse on the floor, unbutton the top button of your jeans, and veg out. But WAIT! Don’t fall asleep for too long, guys. Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve! You have places to go! Champagne to drink! Strangers to make out with at midnight! Take a disco nap...
