...yup, Seattle. This is somewhat of an annual trip for us. A fun way to start off the holiday season and Ron {my runner husband} loves to run the Seattle 1/2 Marathon.
We started the trip with a visit to the American Girl Place where each of the girls took a look the beautiful dolls. Let me just say, that both now know what they will ask for from Santa ;). And no, we did not make a purchase but still both girls said "this was the best day ever". Now that is what the parental units really wanted to hear :), oh yes a hotel with a nice pool and fantastic view sweetened the deal ...
One of the great things about travelling to Seattle is that we really do not have to worry about food choices for the girls. A Whole Foods is in walking distance from the hotel, and vegan options, soy milk, etc. are available in most restaurants. We even had vegan pancakes....- The girls rode the carrousel, we explored the city, and Ron had a fantastic run. Take a look....
Oh, and yes I did make dinner last night. Let me just call this Cheater's Quick Pasta Dinner. A jar of Newman's Own Sockaroni Sauce {enhanced with some Paremsiano Rind}, a box of Farfalle Barialla Pasta, and a sprinkling of fresh parsley. Voila - perfect cheater's dinner plus leftovers for the lunchbox. Hooray...does it not look fancy ;)
