Fun Fun Fun!

Whew - it's been a week of recovery after last weekend. A week ago today, several friends descended upon us here in Seattle for a fantastic weekend of shopping, knitting, eating, and general merry-making.

We started with dinner at Bamboo Garden,a yumtastic Buddist-style veg Chinese restaurant, then moved onto some pool at a nearby bar. We later made it to "my" bar, but not until after a mile-long walk that nearly got me lynched!
Saturday found us knitting, knitting, knitting -
first at a picnic in the park (freezing!) then at Zoka, a local coffee shop. After a strenuous day of knitting, we fancied up, and headed down to the Pink Door, for an evening of excellent food, drink, company, and naughtybadfun.

(Ok, the busboy didn't REALLY get deflowered...)

The night wound up with more excellent drink & company (followed by girly slumber-party style chatting with my inestimably fabulous guest Sarah until the wee hours!).

On Sunday, we headed to the Market for a bit of shopping before most of the girls headed down to Sarah's homestead for a real slumber party. So much fun - but I had to miss out, due to work on Monday.
Everyone but Sarah returned on Monday evening, and Tuesday we rounded out the get-together with dinner at Cutter's, a seafood place near the market, followed by "Fame!" starring our own dear Rebecca.
What fun!

Aside from the flurry of activity, it was just really fantastic to see all of the girls. To see Jen and Carolyn again (they were both at Kansas), Ali, who I haven't seen in 2 years, seeing Sarah is always fun, and getting together with my neighbors here in Seattle that I NEVER get to see - Danica, Rebecca and Jenn... It was just a great weekend.

Listen here, Miss Thang-you are lucky enough to have other DHers in your city! I demand that you spend time with them because I am a jealous and petty girl who has NO DHers anyfreakingwhere NEAR me. Thank you :) Amber
