Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry.

A Visit to Cupcake Royale in West Seattle

This weekend is Memorial Day weekend. Our weekend so far has been filled with trips to the beach and the park and yes, there was even cupcakes!

I chose my favorite flavor-a Salted Caramel, and I also got a Chocolate and Cheese cupcake, and for my three year old twins, two baby cakes. They are mini cupcakes with white cake and chocolate frosting. The perfect thing to get all over their faces and hands before hitting the beach. But as I say, let them eat cake! Or, have your cake and eat it, too! You get the idea. Cupcakes are fun and whimsical, but mostly, they're delicious.
