Today has been a fun day so far. We started out by taking the #8 bus to get our usual bagels at Noah's. We brought an asiago and two super onion bagels back to the apartment to eat for breakfast. After that, we went downtown to go to Pike Place Market. The weather has been nice here the last few days with highs in the upper 40s and even the 50s today, which is much better than most of the rest of the country. It was nice walking around the market with such great weather. We got some wild blackberry honey from the Snoqualmie Valley honey farm stand that we've gotten honey from before. We also went to World Market where Troy found some red tea he'd been wanting recently and we also got some balsamic vinegar since some recipes we've wanted to try call for it.
After that we went to Gap so I could look for more winter clothes. I was surprised at how much winter stuff was on clearance and really cheap. I got 4 long sleeved shirts for $28 total! I should do all my shopping at Old Navy and Gap from now on. Then we walked all the way through Belltown and Lower Queen Anne in an attempt to eat at Tup Tim Thai that we'd been wanting to go to for a while. Unfortunately we found out that it's only open from 5-11 Saturday, so we went to a Greek place called the Athina Grill instead. Troy had been wanting a gyro for a while. We both got one and it was really filling and good. I got a salad with mine and Troy got fries with his.
We hung out in Counterbalance park for a few minutes waiting for the bus, which we took home. What a great day to be outside in Seattle! Pike Place Market is definitely one of my favorite places to go to.
We moved to Seattle in February 2008 and shared blog posts and photos during our first few years in Seattle.
