Liberian lunch

Seattle, Washington

Today Frank and I set out on a bike ride to a new favorite taco bus across from Rainier Beach H.S. Alas, when we arrived, it was closed. Fortunately, Google provided us with a new option in its "food near me" search, and we dined on West African fare at Truuf Food: jollof and fried plaintains. The food was good, and the cook/waiter friendly. Give it a try!

Tomato palapalooza

Seattle, Washington

Yes, it's been a long, hot, dry summer in Seattle. Not good for us true Seattleites, BUT great for my tomatoes. Lots of lovely red fruit, but also some very strangely shaped ones!
