Well, my bank has failed, and everyone’s talking and blogging and twittering about economics and politics, two topics I’m terribly passionate (read: opinionated) about. In an effort to not get run out of town, I’m going to stick to this as my commentary for now, and try very hard to keep my mouth shut otherwise:

Why keep my mouth shut? My opinions aren’t going to change yours, and this time of year, some (thankfully, some, not all) people start hating people who don’t think like them. I like my friends, and would like them to continue liking me. I know I’m not going to change your vote, so how about we just agree to disagree and go back to talking about Star Wars and web startups like we used to? I guess I’m just also a little exhausted from political mud-slinging drama, and fairly bummed (dare I say depressed? *Ba-dum-ching!*) about the bailout. Can’t we just be friends?
This is rather silly but interesting in the “let’s take a snapshot of your life right now” kind of way. I’ve been enjoying others’ posts, so I guess it is only fair to do my own. So, here’s a moment in the life of Cassie, at work:
Instructions:
Take a picture of yourself right now.
Don’t change your clothes, don’t fix your hair – just take a picture.
Post that picture with NO editing.
Post these instructions with the picture.
This is either my most pointless or awesome post ever (depending on who you are).
So, I was considering today the awesomeness of sandwiches available in Seattle, especially near my office on Capitol Hill, and decided to share with you my top picks (in no particular order).
- The Romozzager from The Honey Hole: Roma tomatoes, mozzarella slices, a dash of balsamic vinegar, romaine lettuce, mayonnaise, salt and pepper on a fresh French roll ($4.05)
- The B.E.T. from Crave: Bacon, escarole, yellow tomatoes, and delicious goat cheese ($7.50)
- Chicken Salad Sandwich from Mia’s Off Broadway Cafe: So good. The perfect chicken salad, with raisins, and balsamic vinegar ($6.25)
- Lemongrass Steak from The Baguette Box: grilled organic ‘strawberry mountain’ lemongrass steak with carrots and some rutabaga-like veggie called jicama that I love ($7.50)
What are your favourite sandwiches in Seattle (or elsewhere)?
