Wednesday, we met up with Kristin and Michael Noblin in Seattle. For all you CCA types, Kristin (formerly Mulhern) was a member of the CCA English department 5 years ago. The last time we saw Mike and Kristin was three summers ago at their wedding in Portland, OR. We honored Susannah’s request for a trip to the original Starbucks on Pike street. Once there, of course, we had to go to the Pike street market and watch the fish mongers throw the huge pacific salmon across the counter. I managed to get my finger caught in a crawfish claw, and the monkfish “puppet” scared the girls. They had a hard time dragging me away from rows and rows of the fresh cut flowers- peonies in every color! The local marionberry jam and homemade pumpkin butter just seemed to jump off the shelves and into my shopping bag. Afterwards, Mike and Kristin took us around the corner to a unique Pan African restaurant. The piri piri salmon and the company were equally good!
