Jonathan and I spent a relaxed afternoon together and sometime after lunch we had a craving for....ice cream. We were driving in the Freemont area when we saw a woman on the corner of the road eating two lovely scoops out of a fantastic looking waffle cone. My eyes quickly scanned the corner and we found what looked like a hole in the wall ice cream shop. We stopped, parked around the corner and walked in. It was a treasure for sure! Molly Moon's Homemade Ice Cream is quite trendy. All of the materials they use are organic and all of the trash is compostable, but more importantly to me specifically are the waffle cones they make fresh and the yummy flavorfull ice cream. It was so good, we may just go out of our way to find that corner again. It comes highly recommended! Take a look at the link, the location and the flavors.
I opened my email today and found a request from another user to use one of my photos on flickr. An intern at NowPublic.com is doing an article on the health implications of coffee. While something like that has never happened to me and I was flattered at her admiration of the photo I took in the grass yesterday at the William's BBQ, I turned down her request to use my photo with the Starbucks logo and offered another photo without a logo instead. I was a little worried that I could be held responsible for contributing to an article that might have negative implications on a large corporation such as Starbucks. In the mean time, my head has swelled just a bit.
I'm thinkin...perhaps I should try a different career path...Photography perhaps?
Today, Jonathan's mom and dad came out to meet us in Seattle to spend a day together. We spent most of the day at the Seattle Center for the "Taste of Seattle". We had a great day walking around in the sunshine, eating some great food, and just being together.
Now while Jonathan and I always have a randomly fun time with the Ibsen's, yesterday was especially fun. After church we all had lunch at the Green Lake Bar and Grill and then headed to her sister and brother in law's house in Stanwood to build an over 20 foot slip and slide to play on. After all the water fun, we washed the grass off and dipped in the warmish hot tub For dinner, we all had pizza at her mom's beautiful farmhouse and toasted marshmellows back down at her sister's before heading home. We had a great time meeting Luke and Janell's family as well. We love the Ibsens!
