If you have been following my blog, you will know that we did a quick trip up to
Seattle back in February. So I thought I would share my Instagram journey to give you an idea of what we got up to whilst we were there.
One thing Seattle has to offer is great restaurants and seafood. And as you can probably tell, we did a lot of eating out... 'shock-horror'! The weather was just like it is back home: grey, wet and miserable. I was pleased though, because it meant that I could finally wear my handmade Garter Gaitor cowl and we could warm up with some traditional New England clam chowder! Yummers !!! We also visited the famous Pike Place Market, the Space Needle and the original Starbucks (previously known as: Seattle Coffee Co.). We also found an amazing crumpet shop which is run by a little old English lady. Sadly, I didn't get to meet her, it was just closing as we walked by it. But PC ran out the next morning whilst I was getting ready and picked us up a plain crumpet, a cheese and tomato crumpet and a salmon and cucumber crumpet. And as a treat he also got me a Crumpet Shop mug: what an absolute cutie he is!!! I'm more of a traditional salted butter gal when it comes to crumpets, so I personally preferred the plain ones. But I have to say that they were probably the best I've ever tasted, and, dare I say it, possibly beat Warbuton's crumpets!
