Another great weekend...


Saturday was the Seattle Food Truck food fest (very impromptu) or as Craig pointed out - the hipster mobile food fest (lots of skinny pants, witty t-shirts, and army hats) Twas supposed to be an absolutely glorious event, and it almost measured up. The food was good, but the organization wasn't. To their credit, there didn't seem to be an official organizer, and it was their first year. I got a Dante dog (ketchup, mustard, onions and cream cheese!) and a pulled pork sandwich. What I did not get was the burrito that Jaime had waited in line so patiently to order - the lines were ATROCIOUS and it was around 3:30 by the time we decided we weren't going to see our Mexican food. We'd been waiting about half an hour, and they were up to number 106 (we were 126) from 99. Unfortunately we had other engagements to get ready for (but you already knew that, I mean, it's US! Of course we have other stuff to do Saturday!)

We headed home and prepped for dinner with my coworkers Deke and Miranda down at their house in Puyallup. Nothing beats a Saturday night, great friends, a good steak, and a glass of red wine. That the Huskies pulled off an AMAZING come from behind victory was even better (go Dawgs!) Thanks to Deke and Miranda for hosting us!

(Kendal, what do you think of your new sister?)

Sunday we enjoyed breakfast at the 'rents house with our new niece Natalie (and the rest of the fam). I get an awesome breakfast, Jaime gets to hold a baby - everyone wins! Sunday afternoon we had a wonderful visit with Courtney and Dan at Beveridge Place Pub, where we shared great conversation and I got a fresh hopped IPA. Fall is the best season for hop lovers!


And so begins another week...

my friends waited about an hour more to get our food (so that makes it 430) and then another 30+ minutes for their order. F- on prep time for the taco van.
