My latest blog post...
Quoted: In part five of this series , we make our way over the bridge and into Ballard ... a neighborhood so hip, so historical, and so out there on its own (that's a good thing), it's easy for newcomers to forget it's part of Seattle.

My latest blog post... It's kinda making wish I was going to be in Seattle just a little longer!
Quoted: Ah, your first holiday in Seattle. Sure, it might be more of a grey Christmas than a white one (er, except for last year ), but there are plenty of events around town to make you feel like you're in a winter wonderland …

Yeah, I loved The Dark Crystal, Willie Wonka, Return to Oz and The Fox and The Hound and I'm sure Coraline will be a fast favorite. Turns out that my parents didn't shelter us as much as they thought they should ...
2 FaversViewed: 14 TimesQuoted: Where would we be without children’s movies? They provide us college students with blissful hours of nostalgia-fueled discussions about which Disney princess was hottest or which McDonalds tie-in toy we most enjoyed. Something often forgotten by people our age is the service they provide to parents; plop your kids in front of their favorite movie and that should shut them up for an hour and a half. But what about those movies that go too far—that advertise themselves as family-friendly romps or a short time of silence for weary parents but end up causing crippling emotional damage through their inappropriate themes and horrific visuals?
