Mum's visit to Seattle:

Matt teaches Mum how to make Sushi!
Wow!
I can't make Sushi, in fact I am watching from the bar doing my crossword puzzle.
(my latest wish-i-had-never-started hobby)
asking Mum for help as she navigates sushmi with Matt.
Good times.

How do you follow up a home made sushi feast? Fabulous sidewalk french fare. pastiche, baguette, brie and ummmmm coffee....!!!! long lunches with family are my favorite

We took Mum to our favorite park where we watched the boats go by and admired how alike our hands are.

And finally, as I was called in to work Mum and Matt absconded to a Sounders game!
