B-Town Adventure

Today B was having a "hunger of the heart" so we ventured up to Burien for some pub food at Elliot Bay Brewing Company. EBBC is always a great place for filling voids, emotional or otherwise, and I would highly recommend fish tacos and a pint of Razn'Stout (raspberry framboise mixed with their house brewed stout) to anyone.

Because B has been ordered by his trainer at the gym to eat more dead things, B had a grilled Rueben with the works. I had a mushroom swiss burger sub veggie patty that was a whole lot like eating fried casserole on a bun, mushy and pointless. Mental note: remember to stick to the fish tacos.

After lunch we headed over to Safeway to pick up snacks for the Bird Killer. We had been there a few weeks back with him, and he went over the moon when he realized that Safeway carries his childhood favorite treat - a Mexican cookie that resembles a cracker with four ice cream scoops and sprinkles on top.

When BK returns to the office tomorrow, I'm hoping he won't report us to HR on harrassment charges. Although our gift is sincere, you can never know how he will respond.

Food: 3/5 (minus 2 for fried casserole)
Atmosphere: 4/5 (automatic deduction for being in Burien)
Good times: 5/5

I don't want to mess up my hair

After two major disappointments today at Taco del Mar, including no Taco Queen and an inoperable credit card machine (are you kidding me, that's like running out of tacos) we ended up at Chipotle. As you know, I love Chipotle and feel that every lunch there is “burrito-ful and fajita-ful”; however, our special lunch guest Power Womon came close to a nervous breakdown due to ordering pressure. No PW, when you order a burrito, you get one burrito, not three –multiples only work with tacos or at Claim Jumpers. As always, there were several fashion disasters including jeans so tight on a Chipotle patron that it made scuba outfits look baggy. After lunch (and yogurt) we traveled to Party City (I thought the store was going green or was closed by not having the lights on, but apparently they have ultra-tinted store front windows) to purchase baby shower décor for a colleague. R swears she’s never been to a baby shower before, however she has a “sixth sense” that led her right to the baby
