Read MoreMy parents made the trip to Seattle to accompany me wedding dress shopping last week. I went a little overboard and scheduled six appointments at boutiques in the greater Seattle area. I guess I was scared I would have another situation like dress shopping for senior prom where I visited a zillion stores and found nothing(happy ending: I ended up falling in love with and ordering a dress Mom forced me to try on that I had seen in magazines and hated on the model).

As is usual in Seattle, the weather couldn't figure out whether it wanted to be dreary and rainy or let a little sunshine through.

Read MoreJeff and I attended a cooking class at The Pantry at Delancey two Mondays ago to learn how to make Asian pork buns.

Lucky for me, it wasn't like that at all.
