December 2017 Artist - Julia Rouse

How do you explain your artistic style? What mediums/ tools do you work with?

I am a collage artist, using magazine photos almost exclusively. Because anyone can do it, no matter their art skills, I consider collage “the people’s art.” Had I not found and used these images, they would likely have been recycled or thrown away; beauty and meaning are resurrected from trash.

Pelican Brewing Bad Santa Cascadian Dark Ale

Beyond its base characteristics, one of Bad Santa’s strongest virtues (pause for chuckle) is its drinkability. Sixty-five IBUs is respectable but not tongue-numbing, so a reveler is allowed to enjoy the character of the beer’s hops—consisting of multiple hop species but specifically Fuggle, a traditional hop originating in England—and dark malts without losing their sense of taste altogether.

Comfort Baking Co.

As their names suggest, lemon lavender shortbread is a classic-style shortbread dough with lavender flowers and lemon zest, chocolate raspberry is a deeply rich chocolate dough with chocolate chunks and dried raspberries, and Kitchen Sink is also a chocolate dough replete with hazelnuts, tart cherries, toasted coconut, oatmeal, and chocolate chips—everything but the kitchen sink!

Full Tilt Ice Cream: Seattle’s Ice Cream and Pinball Wizards

And Full Tilt doesn’t draw the line at imaginative ice cream flavors and toppings. Full Tilt carries a full complement of eclectic sodas for ice cream floats, and—wait for it—for those parlor patrons of age, Full Tilt offers Tipsy Treats, floats made with your choice of beer, cider, or wine! Full Tilt also makes milkshakes and offers cold brew coffee to add a little zip to any float or shake.

Honest Biscuits

Honest Biscuits was founded by Art Stone who was first introduced to the art of making biscuits by his grandmother. And since those lessons in the kitchen in North Carolina, Stone has brought his love of biscuits to Seattle, putting a premium on the freshest local ingredients and fresh new ideas for an old country favorite.

3 for $35

Gr es at coffee and a great deal with the 3-$35!!! Will recommend to anyone who likes a good cup of joe!!!

Bitch Blend is a little tart

In our espresso machine we found Bitch Blend was good but with a bit acidity. We are bigger fans of Roaster’s Choice, which is an exceptionally rich and balanced medium roast.

Great Ethiopian

This was a 4/5... it’s rare for me to give 5. I highly recommend this one. I brew mine with a French press and drink it black. This was a very smooth cup.
