Nectar in Fremont = Pet Friendly

I love going to restaurants/coffee shops during the summer where I can sit down and eat with some friends and bring my puppy doggy Kokanee along. I'm gone all day long at work, so I feel bad when I go out with friends after work and leave her in my apt the whole day and night.

One of my best friends Jaime and I decided to go to Nectar in Fremont tonight to get some beers and dinner. We had a great time chatting and hanging out. We actually ran into my friend Brittany and got to hang with her for a little bit. Everyone loves Kokanee, they always come up to her and say she's so cute. I think it's because she's so original looking and small. What do you think?

What is a Murphy?

I was reading the Seattle Metro Blog and I came across this article: 'So What's a Murphy'

Have you been to Kidd Valley? Do you know of the garlic fries at the Mariner's Stadium? If that is a yes, then you know what Kidd Valley is. Apparently they call their regular fries murphies. That is such a random name, since their chili fries and garlic fries have normal names. Does anyone know the meaning behind this?

Auburn Drive In Theater

Today during our Holiday walkthrough/rehearsal at work we started chatting about what each of us where going to do this weekend. One girl said she was going to the drive in theater in Auburn. I had no clue that there were drive in theaters in WA still. I use to go to the drive in theater in Yakima a lot when I was a kid and it was always a lot of fun.

If you ask me I think the drive in theater is a great deal. You usually get two to three movies for like $15 dollars per car.

Check out The Valley Drive In, in Auburn. It's only $7 dollars per person and they have some great movies playing.

Asymmetrical Dress

What do you think of this dress? I like everything but the color, but it might surprise me if I try it on. The jersey/nylon fabric would give it a comfy fit that you could were anywhere day or night. The asymmetrical fit is suppose to give it a flattering look, but you can't really tell because the model is so thin. How much would you pay for this?

The Little Gym of Bellevue

I took the last two months off of teaching gymnastics and I missed it so much. I'm subbing for the next three weeks and then I'll have a few classes one day a week in the fall/winter to teach. It's so great to be back. Just to see the kids laugh is enough to make me happy. The best feeling in the world is when a kid is excited to see you and says they have missed you.

I love The Little Gym of Belleuve!

IsaBelt; a great invention

Isabelt is a clear belt that won't create bulk near your stomach when wearing a long shirt or sweater. It almost looks like a clear bra strap. I have a short torso (ok I'm short all over) that most of my shirts are longer than they should be and there is a huge mountain of a belt under my shirt.

H&M Moving to U-Village

For the past few months, I've heard rumors of H&M moving to Seattle. There was some talk about it coming to the expansion of Northgate, but it's actually coming to U-village in Spring 2008. I almost feel like it doesn't fit in well with all the high end shops there, but people from every class seem to like this store.

Family Reunion this Weekend

This weekend my whole family from my Dad's side are in town and getting together for my Uncle's birthday Sunday. The last time I saw my aunts, uncles and cousins from S. Carolina was April 2006. Our family is pretty small, my grandma and grandpa only had 3 boys, one my Dad. Wes gets to meet the rest of my family.. haha I hope he's ready ;)

I can't wait to see my twin nieces, it's been about 2 months now. That's a long time for me. Don't you think they are just so cute???

Goldies in Wallingford

Tonight my friend Jaime and I went to Goldies on 45th on Wallingford for dinner and drinks. They have great deals on Mariner's nights ($6 dollars pitchers), quite a few pool tables, karaoke and darts. A great local bar and hang out for anyone who lives in the wallingford area.
