Jenesequa Style Magazine: Launch party, what what...

Okay, I am the wrong one to be writing about style and launch parties, so bear with me here. What I do know is that Jenesequa (a chic-y little magazine pronounced ‘je ne sais quoi’) will be hosting a big party tonight at 7pm, down at Belltown’s Makers for their launch of the rag doing the 21st century thing, and making their big girl debut on the iPhone and iPhone. You simply must (yep, must) dress in...

Pecado Bueno Serves $3 Margaritas All Day, Every D...

In my past life as a Californian, there was nothing better on a hot day than a pool, some friends, and an ice-cold margarita in my hand. Well, in Seattle, we don’t get many oppressively hot days, but that doesn’t mean that my love for a margarita (on the rocks, of course) has decreased. But now I do have to look a little harder to find a good one. (Also, now I wear sweaters while I drink them. Que sera.) Or at...

Tis the season for Norwegians: Get a taste with a ...

Who doesn’t love the Norwegians that reside in Ballard? Their parade in May is the only crowded event in Seattle I can actually enjoy without feeling like I have to buy bottled water for $20 or move with a herd of cows (plus, I have my own parking spot). But to kick the season off right, the good people of Norway are starting some great festivities this weekend. Photo courtesy of Thorskegga. The Norwegian Cultural Heritage...

Celebrate Washington Wine Month: Local, Delicious,...

Today we’re very proud to share a guest post about one of our favorite topics (wine) from one of our favorite local wine experts, Annie Hong. Annie is the GM at Black Pearl Seattle and a true advocate for and aficionado of Washington wine. Since March is Washington Wine month, I enlisted her to lend her expertise and share some tips on how Yay-Today readers can get to know more about the amazing local wine that we are...

Giveaway: Pre-funk or After-party at The 5-Point C...

Now that the weather is finally feeling less wintery (I may be a bit optimistic, but hopeful nonetheless) it means people start climbing out of their holes and back into the daylight. Restaurants and bars start to dust off their outdoor seating and everyone stops taking their Vitamin D. It’s glorious! Yommmmm, The 5-Point Cafe makes me hungry for chicken fried steak. Well, it’s time to gather your friends, grab...

8 oz Burger Bar: Burgers for Every Budget...

I write for a blog about freebies and cheapies, but this girl definitely has caviar dreams, especially when it comes to food and shoes. (And cosmetics. And adorable sundresses. You get the picture.) Luckily, I’m married to a man who keeps me grounded, at least in some respects. Where as I have a major weakness for fancified food, my husband thinks that the five food groups are burgers, chicken wings, sausage/hot dogs,...

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...

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...

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...

Wednesday is Winesday...

Congratulations! You made it to the middle of the week. You are returning email, meeting deadlines, and not playing with your phone during meetings, just like a real grownup. As a reward for your bravery and perseverance Seattle bestows unto you the gift of delicious wine on the cheap. (And also doughnuts because doughnuts.) All you have to do is make it to tomorrow and verily shall wine fortify your soul, though not your...
