Pet Dish
I recently met some ferrets and their folks on Vashon Island and got a
first-hand taste of what makes these little guys and gals so popular.
Their charming, goofy, freewheeling zest for life is like two pounds of
furry Prozac.

I was prepared to be bored all the way to my prenatal gills when I visited The Fish Store in Ravenna. While I've never had an aquarium of my own, I lived with my sister and my 10-year-old nephew when he caught the fish bug. They put together a tank, which, over the years featured danios, plecostomuses and Oscars -- pretty standard freshwater fish plagued by unfortunately high mortality rates that took some of the fun out of what seemed to me an already low-thrills pursuit.

Monday: Local singer-songwriters Jean Mann, Jill Cohn
and Willow are among this town's most talented performers. Normally you'd
have to pay to see each of these mighty folksingers in separate clubs ... but
tonight, at Ballard's amazing Tractor Tavern, you can enjoy sets by all three
for the low, low price of $12. That's only four dollars per genius, a savings of
more than 80 percent of what you'd pay to see any one of these future superstars
on stage at the Paramount. Act now!

Daily Find
Don't hate me, but I remain a big fan of the leggings trend. (How else could I wear dresses throughout the winter?) So I was excited to see the comfy trend for legs modified for the upper body by Seattle designer Susan Fedore, whose arm cozies warm up T-shirts the same way leggings help winterize dresses.
