I know I write a lot about Pike Place Market here in Seattle, but I just can't help myself.
Do you remember the scene in "Sleepless In Seattle" where Tom Hanks is in the Market and buying groceries to make dinner for that silly woman he was dating? And what about the restaurant where he was talking about Cary Grant with his buddy Rob Reiner?
Those places are here in the Market, and every time I see them, it makes me happy. In fact, every time I watch "Sleepless In Seattle" I get happy in a teary, ridiculous, nostalgic kind of way.
So I was at Pike Place Market on Sunday with my daughter Megan, and my son David. We played tourist and went in all the shops, looked at the flowers, the food, the people, and just generally hung out and had a good time.
The picture above was on a produce truck parked in front of the Market. It was so colorful and pretty that i just had to take a picture of it. And really, when is the last time you saw a truck like this at your local supermarket? Just another reason to love my Seattle.
