Bright partly sunny, crisp, cool day in Mill Creek, my favorite little city outside of Seattle.

A lot of people are out enjoying a walk, including moms with babies in strollers and others with their pups on leash. It’s a nice day to see and be seen while soaking up the ambience on the steps between Central Market and Starbuck’s.

Central Market, hmm, maybe run in for some fresh sockeye salmon, and all the fixings for broccoli risotto. Wonder what they have for Prosecco? I love Central Market! We are so lucky to have it in the neighborhood. It is always fun to browse in search of great food and wine choices. If you can think of it, they probably have it. Every department has friendly staff that are helpful and eager to offer suggestions or answer questions about ingredients and preparation. Do tell.
