Great, Perkins! Let me get my family stuff squared away and we can see about times and places. (I have a great uncle who lives in San Francisco, and he's informed me that we will be dining together at some point. Gotta love those old school patriarchs. @_@)

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

How much do I love you people that I watched Rachel Ray's Vacation because it was set in Seattle.
Queen Anne District- Breakfast at 5 Spot; Easy Street Records for music lovers;
Downtown - Pike Place district; Matt's in the Market (located above the Market, across from the fish tossing);
Madison Park - Vegetarians- Cafe Flora; Southwestern- Cactus (good margaritas); good shopping; Japanese Garden; Aboretum.
Capitol Hill - Dinette, French inspired (1/2 price wine on Wed); Lark - cheeses, charcuterie, local artisans, sustainable foods
Txori- tapas
Ballard- Blackbird (men's closthing); Volterra- italian
I definitely want to plan a trip to Pike's Place Market, maybe Saturday morning.

I'm not sure I love you people enough to watch Rachel Ray. I have spent one day in Seattle and saw the market and the fish throwing, but I'd love to go again.

The Margaritas at Cactus are merely ok.
I can attest.
Best ones in town used to be at Pesos. I think some of the newer places have even better ones.
Tapas at Ocho in Ballard. Mmmmmmmmm.

I have no respect for any food program that goes to Ballard and doesn't mention Cupcake Royale, Sam's Sushi and Zak's Burger Joint. Oh, and Pete's Smokin' BBQ.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Is the place that originated the maple-bacon donut in Seattle? Or is that Portland?

I suspect that is Voodoo Donut who're in Portland. Seattle can lay claim to Bacon Salt, tho'.
