Default Day trip to Pike Place.

Just got home from a trip to Pike Place Market in Seattle. I live about 35 miles away. My dh will not take me, because he has been there, why would he need to go again. So I drove myself. He also says I stop in front of him and cut him off very times when we walk places. There is a lovely quilt shop with a great owner. Most of the marketplace construction is finished with great new additional bathrooms and elevators.
It was a nice day. I had a crumpet and jam and a gyro. I brought home mini doughnuts, cookies, bagels, spices, pasta and a grab bag of fabric and a new quilt pattern. The places I usually eat at were very busy, chiwder house and the pirshoky shop. I collected some pressed pennies for a little friend too. As always on the way home, I tell myself, "I should do this more often". There was construction at the waterfront, so driving was a little different but there were no problems or scary moments.
