Idea for dinner: go to WILD GINGER!

I went there with my boyfriend and it was awesome, so much so that he missed his flight!

Gaucho....

I love country music, and have gone to many-a concert alone because none of my friends will join me.

Punki/BellAA...I should be free for a quick lunch bite that day. Just let me know when and where.

Ohhh YES! The bar is awesome as well... MASSIVE Mango daquaris. The Mojito wasn't up to scratch though but the bartender is the best guy. I know this thanks to LDSANT and MissyD who IMHO are the best FT Tourguides around.

Being ordinary working folks, we are busy all afternoon, but would love to hook up for maybe an early dinner (like 6 ish) Thursday evening. Anybody else interested?

If nobody else can spring free for the afternoon, BelleissimAA, I will be more than happy to pick you up at the airport at noon, grab a quick bite of lunch if you would like, drop you off downtown so you can wander around enjoying our lovely city ...
</font>
Still not sure of the time of your visit, BellissimAA but....

Being an ordinary unemployed stay-at-home dad (quite nicely married though), I'd offer a small bar-b-que on our deck which overlooks the Puget Sound, Punki/MissyD/Liz/whoever, if you guys want to cruise over here instead of going to some stuffy restaurant.

We're in West Seattle which is conveniently between the airport and downtown, and I could easily shuttle BellissimAA downtown so you could go back to be with the other ordinary working folk, Punki.

I have the nanny from 11-4pm so the kids will be under control during that time. And I'm a great cook. (though I may have a dentist appointment until 11am) I will have to check with my personal assistant to see what I am doing that morning.

Just thought I'd throw out something different. All SEA FT'ers would be welcome too!

Alright, gregseattle-
I'll take your nanny from 8 am -10:30 am M-F. I could use someone to get my morning children's (er dog's) needs taken care of.

Dinner/bbq sounds great. Can't do shopping or anything else, but I could bring a nice fruit tart(e). My arm could also be twisted to go somewhere like wild ginger, it shouldn't be too bad on a thursday.

lala...

Dinner won't work at my crib, I don't think. Wild Ginger would be much beter for dinner than our house... and the sun is so scorching in late afternoon here it is almost too hot to be on the deck.

I can only offer a lunchtime/midday thing...but hey bring the dog over too!

If this doesn't work I will most likely throw up a mini SEA FT 'do' here sometime, as it looks like I will be missing the big event in August, unfortunately to go to a wedding that I have no interest in attending.

Sounds way awesome to me. Can Hunki come? Should we let Chopped Liver Boy come?

Punki you got his attention!!

OK, Chexfan, you bring chopped liver boy. Of course, Punki you can bring Hunki, MissyD you can bring any yumyums you can create, and lala can bring the dog. ldsant??

I meant more like the barbeque will be small, the crowd can be large.

I guess we need to know when Punki's amazing shuttle service will be arriving from SEA-TAC.

More once we hear from the initiator of this whole madness......
