In the past month I also had the privilege of visiting Seattle! One of my college roommates lives there now and of course, the other 2 college roommates had to come as well! We try to all get together at least a couple times a year. It is always a joy to have all 3 of them at the same time! This was my first time to the Northwest & I had a wonderful experience! Despite the rainy, cold weather, we had a blast....

Cheeeese please |
Seattle is a town of hipsters & I have to admit, I kinda loved it. The laid back atmosphere, the carefree spirits, the appreciation of sustainability (in all aspects of the word) and the landscape of joining mountain ranges with ocean views. I mean, what would you be in a hurry for??! So, we tried to see all that we could while still maintaining that Seattle spirit.

And, of course, we went to the market! Ahhh, the market! What I would give to live in place where there was a market like this in my town. Fresh fish, fresh fruit, fresh veggies, fresh pasta, fresh flowers.... fresh, fresh, fresh! It was so fun to shop there for dinner and I even had some fish sent back to the restaurant! They shipped it all the way back to Indiana to the eager chefs awaiting their arrival to create a tasty special for our restaurant menu. They created 2 different specials and they both sold out within days. Rockstars!
