Last night’s dinner at Skillet was so freaking good. Their current Friday special is a BBQ Spare Rib Dinner, served with Whiskey Baked Beans, Cole Slaw, and Jalapeño Goat Cheese Cornbread. The spare ribs were cooked perfectly and fell right off the bone, and the BBQ sauce was the perfect blend of tangy and sweet.
Since we had to catch a movie, we ran out of time to try their desserts or Adult Milkshakes, which was a shame. Guess we’re going to have to go back sometime very soon.
Today was actually a sunny day, with mildly warm temperatures. I’m shocked. This whole week is supposed to be sunny, actually, with more mildly warm temperatures. We may finally be entering a full-fledged Spring week.
And, so you know, all of us in the Pacific Northwest will be reacting like this.
Seriously, traffic is worse the first full week of sunny weather up in our soggy corner of the United States than it is in the snow, hail or rain.
What Sarah said.
We had a wonderful day outside. I finally got the forest growing around Helm’s Deep mowed. Then, we headed east to Wallace Falls State Park for a nice, leisurely day hike with the girls. We did almost 3 miles total, which, with a 3-year-old, a 2-year-old, a newborn, a just-under-3-weeks post-partum Stacie, and a very out-of-shape almost-40 Ralph, was pretty stinking good.
Hope all of you had a great weekend as well.

Oh Seattle. Sigh. (Taken with instagram)
Hard to find reasons why you’d want to live anywhere else than the PNW.
I haven’t been able to find any.
Amen.

It’s almost always very busy in the newsroom, and almost always very loud.
Most of us are doing two or three or four things at the same time, while listening to police and fire scanners, with dozens of TVs on, people talking over and around and through each other.
But every so often during the newscast, the newsroom goes quiet. It’s because of a story that makes us all stop, all watch, all listen, and all remember we are all citizens of the world and we all have a story to tell.
Today…
Indeed.
