We had a busy Saturday!
We first unleashed the Christmas closet and decorated the entire house, minus the tree which we will get next weekend!
Then it was off to Edmonds. Every year, Brian and I try to get up there at least once during the holiday season.
It's a cute little town, situated on the Puget Sound with an independent bookstore, a cheese monger, pubs, coffee shops and a wine store. It's the perfect place to wander and explore, especially around Christmas.
One of our first stops is always the Edmonds Bookshop. This year they are celebrating their 40th year!
No trip to Edmonds would be complete without a stop in to see the local cheesemonger. The Resident Cheesemonger's Table moved locations recently. The shop is bigger, serves hot/cold sandwiches, soups, etc. and is also closer to the wine shop (directly across the street from the old Tully's location).
We had a small cup of yummy smokey tomato bisque, just perfect to warm our bellies on a cold, wet day.
After window shopping, picking up some chocolate at Nama's Candy Store, it was time for a wine tasting at Arista Wine Cellars. Saturday's tastings were from Nine Hats Wines in Walla Walla, WA.
What a fun day!
Visit Edmonds...you will love it!
On our way home, I finally caught a glimpse of the Space Needle all decked out in holiday lights!
But the best lights of all are on our own home. It looks like a little Christmas Cottage!
Enjoy!
