Minding the Store
In times of stress, I employ one of two strategies. The first is to take my beleaguered body to a spa for a little pampering. The second is to spend time with my girlfriends. So when spa parties came into fashion and married the two, I was thrilled to attend the wedding.

If there's one thing Seattleites are good at, it's supporting their communities. Perhaps it's because our city is comprised of such distinct neighborhoods, and each one seems to offer almost everything its residents need. Or perhaps it's because we believe in giving back to the neighborhoods that make us feel at home. Whatever it is, more than ever, Seattleites are championing the businesses on their blocks.
