The Seattle Times story on Sunday about icanhascheezburger.com
is the first I've heard of the Seattle-based Web site that reportedly
"achieved cult status" by posting cat photos with brain-bending
captions in a sort of baby-talk/text-message language known as
lolspeak, or, according to a fascinating Lolcat entry on Wikipedia, "Kitty Pidgin."

Little Kids, Big City
This weekend my nieces, ages 6 and almost 8, came to spend the night.
We had some time to kill before Gub's dad could join us for a trip to
the zoo, so I scanned the West Seattle Blog for ideas of what to do in our neighborhood, which led me to Max and Quinn's Atomic Boys Shop-O-Rama (4311 S.W. Admiral Way), a retro candy and toy shop in the Admiral District.

Little Kids, Big City
This weekend, Gub and her pal went to Seattle Center's Whirligig festival, the madhouse of bouncy rides and wandering entertainers. Having never brought her to a carnival of any kind, I wasn't sure she would like it, but it took only a few minutes of seeing the other kids at play for her to catch on: this was going to be awesome.

We're a food-conscious group here in Seattle. We raise chickens in our
backyards so that we have access to fresh eggs and mash up carrots to
make our own baby food. So it makes sense that we would be just as
mindful of the food that we feed to our furry friends
