Gentle Snark
A band named for a law enforcement agency shouldn't make me want to go out and break the law. Tokyo Police Club does. Whenever "Cheer It Down" or "Box" comes up in iTunes I am filled the urge to commit immature trangressions against people and property, but here's the thing: I don't want to actually hurt anyone doing it. I just want some Bellevue dude to find his mailbox covered in pancake batter and shake his fist at my getaway Zipcar, screaming "You wild kid, yuh!"

Sometime in the spring, when most area ski lifts roll to a halt, I
imagine dogs across town heave a communal sigh of relief. The season of
their people heading to the mountains without them is finally over.
Now, when the backcountry beckons, dogs -- trail dogs, that is -- can
answer the call. Ahhhh-ooooh.

Daily Find
Last year when Danielle Luartes, owner of Tweed in
Greenwood, moved her shop to a larger location, she also added some
plus-size lines to her inventory. It was a brilliant move, since many
collections sold in local boutiques are designed for smaller bodies,
and even the extra-larges are anything but large.
