We headed out from dinner at Local360 and went straight to Nordstrom Rack where we proceeded to try on every pair of awful shoe possible.I actually secretly kind of wanted to buy every single pair of the colorful shoes I tried on, but I’m going to blame that on my Mom who was egging me on and also dancing up a storm in the store.  But somehow, I really thought my wardrobe needed an injection of color.  And that’s how I ended up with a neon-blue fringed leather jacket.  But this wasn’t the end.  This was just the end of Saturday night.  Sunday morning, we were up early-ish to hit the market one last time and eat our weight in salmon jerky.  Before we got to Pike’s Place though, I was determined to eat a damn crumpet if it was the last thing I did in Seattle.Despite the long wait, despite the confusion at the counter, despite the fact that I expected a crumpet to be a cross between a biscuit and a scone and it’s really more like a pancakey-English muffin, the crumpets were freaking delicious.  Pesto egg and English cheese?  The best.  Crumpet smothered in butter and homemade blackberry jam?  Yes.

Mom and I are back in San Francisco at my parents’ house and about to eat dinner with the family.  Michael is heading over right now and I’m about to surprise him with my new blue jacket.  Beautiful weekend.  Happy birthday Mumsies!!!
