Days, even weeks go by and there's not much news. Snooze-nooz, maybe. And then it begins to pile up.
- Blaine Wetzel, up on Lummi Island, is named one of the nation's best "unknown" chefs.
- Diane Lavonne (of Diane's Market Kitchen) starts up free cooking classes in the Market.
- Angela Stowell (that's her on the left with her husband, Ethan, and in-laws) gets named to the Seattle Business Journal's prestigious "40 Under 40" list.
- Sommelier Yashar Shayan starts up a promising online wine shop.
- Amazon headquarters gets picketed by self-appointed "animal rights activists" because the website dares to sell foie gras. It's enough to drive you to drink.
- Fortunately, Canon's cocktail list was named World's Best Drink Selection by the national Tales of the Cocktail conference in New Orleans.
- And Nordstrom at Bellevue Square will unveil a new cocktail bar this week.
There! Are we done? For now, anyway.
