Further Northwest

A funny thing happened yesterday morning….J.

Here’s a quick check-in from our trip even further Northwest…..We’re now in Victoria for our dear friend’s wedding, … Continue reading »

Soy Latte, Kaladi Brothers, Capitol Hill Turning 30 has been ridiculously wonderful with a little more ridiculous thrown in. J.

31 Hours and Three Lattes: A Seattle Photo Essay

Last month, team VVC took a quick trip to Seattle.  It basically went like this: Soy lattes were sipped. Pickle chips were consumed. Vegan treats were sought out. Locations were visited. It was business as usual. One of my first stops: a mug of house Caffé Vita & the vegan chocolate cupcake at Cupcake Royale What clearly, … Continue reading »
