Yesterday I woke up when Anna came back from work.  We went on a walk (I was basically in my pj's) with our tea.  We walked into Mighty O's and got a sample of donut.  It was delicious.  The donuts are vegan so I suppose they are healthier than regular lard fat donuts.

When we got back we made breakfast. This included french toast made from our delicious raison pecan bread. Oh so delicious. We also ate some banana, blueberries, and blackberries. It was quite the breakfast.

Anna had the afternoon off because of the holiday.  So in celebration of that, after breakfast, we sat around for a long time, talking about art and the wish to have nothing else to do. 

 Actually she had a deadline for some online art contest.  The stress to get that done woke us up.

Finally some time around 3 maybe 4 we actually left the house for good and walked down to the bus stop to head to Goodwill.  We thought maybe we would find something fun to make crafts with, but nah.  Anna did buy a camera for 4 dollars though.  

From the Goodwill we walked to Ballard.  By then we were pretty hungry and really wanted some of that good ol'Patty Pan Grill.  Sadly, it was closed.  What were we going to do???

Well, first we had to pick up Anna's books at Epilogue Books, but really, we needed to figure out where to eat.  After some walking around we decided to check out the Oaxacan restaurant.  We also looked at a Thai place, but for some reason we picked Oaxacan food. It looked delicious: fresh salsa, mole, spices, crunchy greens, beans, orange slices, and chicken.   So we ordered tamales and shrimp empanadas. 

It was good, but sadly quite exotic on our mild stomachs.  The only things we have been eating lately are things like bread, fruit, veggies, chocolate, and....tea? All the spices made us a little uneasy, as well as the fact that we have not eaten meat in a long time.  Also, that mole negro was very very rich.  It has such a distinct taste, which you cannot have too much of.  

Anyways, after that intense Oaxacan meal we went back to Wallingford and took a nice long walk around Greenlake.  It was beautiful.  

And after a long day of celebration of not working and eating rich food I am excited for todays adventure to Discovery Park.

Happy Saturday!

P.S.  I don't have any pictures up because they are all on my film camera now. and..

(Anna, I hope you can handle all the food this summer when you are in Oaxaca)

 Oh and here she is being the expert.
