Seattle Weekend - Sunset over Elliot Bay

The best remedy for a miserable cold? Stepping outside for fresh air.

This weekend was awful -- stuffy nose, congestion, and forcing medicine down my throat. On top of that, Saturday was rainy like usual. I felt like curling under the blanket all day.

A sudden sun break, however, appeared at dusk. It motivated me to step outside for fresh air.



One very pleasant thing about neighborhoods in Seattle is that wherever you live, you have a gorgeous view in your back yard. From the Olympics to the West to the Cascades on the East side, Seattle is surrounded by 360 degrees of natural beauty. 


On Saturday evening, my family and I watched a beautiful sunset over Elliot Bay. The view was unmistakably a calm and lovely experience. No matter how bad of a day I had, one look over the burning horizon, life turned into heaven.

Speaking of heaven, doesn't this brownie sundae look heavenly? Every bite packed chocolate gooeyness.

I enjoyed my brownie sundae with a frothy latte.

 

At the end of the night, I did curl up under the blanket, and watched one of the best Ryan Gosling movies yet.

Have you seen Drive, by the way? Pretty interesting plot. A definite recommend. 

 

My Seattle weekend was pretty chill and relaxed, as you can tell.

How was your weekend?
