It's Sunday night, officially almost Monday morning, out here on the West coast and I'm moving along in my urban flow. Most people have turned in. The city is quiet and the rain has set in.  The streets are mirrors to the city lights that now shimmer and paint the streets outside. I'm sitting at a local pub trying to get inspired by the energy of the music and "lives happening" around me, plugged into wifi and trying to find some words and images to share on my Monday blog. Nothing is coming to me. NOTHING... I stop for a minute and take in the scene around me.  A dark downtown Seattle looms outside the windows. Area businesses are mostly closed. The ever-present construction work is on a brief hiatus until tomorrow morning when the construction sites become like bee hives again. Right now, the only remnants in view are the orange traffic cones lining the streets and sidewalks. They are the new icon of the changes happening in this city. They have become the omnipresent accessory that adorns the city like jewels.

A Superhuman Breakfast referral brought me to my next adventure... In eating... For many of you, the combination of me + food + adventure wouldn't be a big surprise. But, if you don't know me, let me say this: I LOVE FOOD Not just "any" food. I like GOOD food. Talented chef-prepared, palate-pleasing, art on a plate food. I'll try almost anything (ALMOST...don't ask me to eat a pickle...It won't happen...childhood pickle trauma lives on). Foie Gras? I'm in. Marrow? I'm IN! Duck? MORE PLEASE!! Geoduck and Gooseneck barnacles? Yep, where's the fork and the napkins? 7 course dinner? No problem. 14 course dinner? I've done them in the US and Europe. I eat food. I take pictures of food. I LOVE FOOD The more color, complex flavor, and interesting texture play the better in my world of "what's cooking?"
