There are 43 restaurants, 16 on-ground vendors and a half-dozen street vendors on the grounds of Seattle Center this weekend. I think I ate most of it. I figure I've got about ten, maybe twenty minutes tops before food coma gets the better of me, so I'll give you the quick skinny. Figuratively speaking, of course.

A few days ago, I learned that treat shop Chocolate Box near Pike Place Market is celebrating its one-year anniversary this month. That's great news, and I offer my heartfelt congratulations, but what really has me jumping for joy is the shop's benediction of the Oh-My-Gawdo, a sublime concoction for which I would happily suffer eternal brain freeze.

Nothing doing tonight? Go check out the Sounds of Summer Concert Series at University Village. We've gone several times in the past few years and had a funktacular time. One note: bring a hat, sunglasses and possibly earplugs. The shows can get hot, bright and very noisy. In a fun way, of course.
