Happy weekend, chickens! Some fun things happening around the city, despite the dismal weather. So wrap up and head out into it. You only live once!
And with that, here is a much-overdue issue of Splurge vs. Steal!
Sick of the weather and ready to just leave it all behind? WHY DON'T YOU?
Take some advice from Seattle Met in their 52 Weekends Away article.
Or simply use their ideas as guidelines and fly by the seat of your pants, much like Brett and I did for New Year's (blog post to come soon!).
Nothing creates a bond like sharing a twin bed in a Motel 6 along the highway - TRUST US.
Just a few destinations that are perfect for a spontaneous weekend away: Portland, OR; Leavenworth (if you ski!); Victoria BC; Canon Beach; Snoqualmie Falls.
Who doesn't love culture? And ghosts? Why not combine the two for the ultimate spooky (and cheap!) Date Night?
Kuroneko: Part samurai flick/part ghost story, the haunting 1968 film explores themes of love, death, and memory.
What else? Why not stay in-theme and dine at one of the cheap sushi trains in the neighborhood? You've got choices: both Genki and Sushi Land are found on Lower Queen Anne; they'll get you full for not a lot of dough!
