1. Summer has finally come to Seattle - only 2 months behind the rest of the country! We've had a week of 75 and sunny and more of the same is forecast for next week. No humidity and a light breeze = summer heaven. Break out the sangria!
2. We'll be right in the thick of the midwest summer on our Chicago trip coming up in two weeks. I'm expecting lots of sticky humidity, but since we were just in Orlando, I'm ready for it. I can't wait to eat, shop, see the sights and hang out with Random Esquire. We're all doing a segway tour of the city which should be fun. Hopefully no one will end up like this: Segway fail.
3. Chris and I braved the crowds and hung out at the Bite of Seattle for a few hours today. Among the food we sampled: Indonesian Javanese chicken, beef kabobs, barbeque hot links, fried macaroni & cheese, root beer floats, lemonade, and piroshky. We also sampled a few wines while cooling our feet in a fountain and listening to jazz music. After the bite, I stocked up on bubble bars from Lush and got a new pair of shoes at the Nordstrom sale (my 4th pair of shoes in a week, but who's counting, right?). Pretty much the perfect day.

Don't feel bad - I bought 3 pairs of shoes when I was with you last weekend, and then at the Nordstrom sale I bought FOUR more pairs of shoes. (Among a whole boatload of other stuff... heh).
Sounds like a great day! How was the Bite of Seattle? I was thinking of checking it out tomorrow.
Avitania - The bite was fun but crazy packed. Took a long time just getting there on the monorail! Should be a nice day for it, though.
I think I'm going to run up to Bel Square and check out some end of season sales. If you are up for more shopping, let me know! :)
I think Fried Mac N Cheese is proof that you can deep fry anything and it's even bettah.
Had to LOL at Chris' comment.
The Bite always comes around and I say I'm going to go...but somehow never do.
One of these days I'll have to actually get off my butt and do it.
