"sounds like dinner number two to me. did we not feed you enough chili dogs?"





Kristin and Elof moved into a loverly new loft. It is very nice and comes with rooftop access. Rooftop access includes such highlights as: a magic, gas-burning fire pit filled with brown glass beer bottle shards, various owl decoys, free (probably) basil and thyme herbs, one seagull (not scared by the owl decoys) that poops in the corner, three BBQ grills for which to make chili dogs and a view of the entire Puget Sound. You must bring your own novelty-sized bottle of wine. Thanks for sharing your chili, dog.

The KEXP BBQ was free this year with the headliner Dinosaur Jr. I had never heard of them, but they played a nice cover of The Cure's Just like Heaven. Lily said, "this is the only song of theirs I know." Samesies, but only because it's not Dino Jr., it's The Cure.

After the show we went to Tavolata and enjoyed a boatload of pasta dinner and accompaniments. Everything we had was delicious, salumi platter, yellow beet salad with gorgonzola, oxtail pasta, clam pasta, lamb pasta and squid pasta with prawns and anchovies, my most favorite of all was the squid pasta. if you count the salami, during that meal we consumed seven different animals. way to go everybody.
