Food highlights from the last week: On Friday ten of us went to Shanghai Garden in the International District here in Seattle. We got a table with a lazy susan so that was exciting. The food was tasty and the server had an odd talent for predicting your order before you told him. How did he do it? They are known for their "hand shaved noodles." Picture a humungous green noodle like you see in the window of gyro places, and then they just shave it down. Good with shrimp and sauce. I got the crispy bean curd in szechuan sauce. Following the romp in the ID, we headed to West Seattle (through Mariner's traffic) for bowling (now smoke-free). It was here that B involuntarily purged her meal. This could have been for many reasons, but it makes me wonder, should I go back to Shanghai Garden?

Saturday I made my blueberry scones with 4 superfoods. Yum.
Sunday we went to Linda's for breakfast and sat outside on the back deck. It was perfectly sunny and nice. I got my standard - a cowboy taco, no meat, with tomoatoes. If you haven't tried Linda's cowboy tacos, get your ass down there.

This morning I went to Macrina Bakery to see the cute barista. Oh yeah, and get a morning glory muffin and an americano. Unfortunately he wasn't there. Rats. I need to figure out his schedule. I still love their morning glory muffins. And they have the best deal for an americano in town: $1.83 with tax.
