Paris-Brest and Eclair au chocolat are the most famous traditional pastries in France. They are both made with Pâte à Choux. My favorite is the Paris-Brest because it is filled with praline hazelnut cream and decorated with almonds.

Olympic Sculpture Park
Chose a beautiful, sunny day to walk through Seattle Art Museum Olympic Sculpture Park and admire the Olympics in the distance.
I love the iconic Eagle by Alexander Calder but there are a lot more great modern pieces to admire.
Echo, the newly installed 45 feet tall sculpture by Jaume Plensa, looks peacefully out over Puget Sound, take a seat and you can do the same!
Coffee at Edgewater Hotel
It was 38ºF outside this morning. On my walk along the waterfront, I needed a cup of coffee to warm me up. I stopped at Edgewater Hotel on Pier 67.
Just off the lobby, I chose a chair overlooking the Sound. Judge by yourself.
