smoking aside...
I like it - I covet that trench and the yellow shoes are fun and unique. And she manages to have her hair up and glasses without looking like Sarah Palin.

so complicated
Seattle has the most complicated parking system of all time! At this point every street is going to have a different rule. It's getting to be like the tax code. Remember parking meters?

I love it too!
That would be a really great addition to the neighborhood. So many people walk anyway, and now they have to sprint across traffic. And that area could really use a few more trees and bushes.

what about food?
Let's talk about food waste. Does anyone sort food scraps? Where do you keep it? What about fruit flies???

smart but not mini
I've noticed several instances of people having a lot of trouble parallel parking mini coopers. Now, I'm no parking genius, but it's a MINI cooper...are they particularly hard to park for some reason? Or do you buy a mini cooper because you have a hard time parking?

Reasons MadronaMoms is better than Craigslist for used stuff
1. you won't have to drive to Kent
2. your baby backpack or whatever is probably in good shape
3. powerful community incentive to be a good actor, because you'll probably see the other person at kindergarden orientation

In 1994
I was in my senior year of high school in tiny town in Alaska. At the time I frequented Sal's Klondike Diner. Which is sort of like Linda's, in that they both have fries and are named after women...

RE: mother
She went to high school on mercer island, so she must have known people. Not the same thing as family, though.

2088 calories for Dominos Bacon Cheeseburger Feast medium pizza
But that's only if you eat the whole thing. Some things are going to be a surprise. An apple juice has more calories than a tall latte according to Starbucks. 190 vs. 150, in case you were dying to know. An americano only has 10 calories, but that's only if you can stand to drink it black. Yuck.

old tree
Does anyone know what happened with the old tree? Is it healed?

forget the tan
Blayne needs some food! Clearly not enough thanksgiving feasting. C'mon over, we have leftover mashed potatoes and scary-looking solidified gravy.

5 years hard time
I vote that he is sentenced to 5 years of community service - painting over grafitti. Then he can tag it again at night. It'll be a beautiful cycle.

I love recorders too!
I was a star on the recorder in 4th grade. My musical skills have gone way downhill since then. Do they still teach kids to play the recorder in elementary school?

volunteer park cafe angles tables
when volunteer park cafe turned their tables to the diagonal from square with the room that seemed a little too micro. But I found it notable.

why is it ok if it is city property?
I don't think it matters whether it is city property or private property - it's still not legal to take something that isn't yours. You can't cut down a tree in a city park or in the parking strip for that matter - cutting flowers is just a matter of scale. And what if someone picked all the flowers in Volunteer Park? That's public space too. It really irks me that people think they can pick flowers that are obviously planted and cared for.

no spots!
Check out the pool rules - someone at the city has a sense of humor.

No "Bare Buns"
No spots - people with communicable diseases are not allowed in the pool.
No fidos

cake walk
I love a cake walk! They are the best thing about a church event - as long as you don't get stuck with the boring brownies.
