Say Cheese!

Since we love us all kinds of cheese, Scott and I headed down to Pike's Market today for the Seattle Cheese Festival. We had heard good things about it from coworkers and was warned it gets busy but we weren't prepared for the throngs of people that showed up. It was crazy crowded! They closed off the streets right around the market so cheese vendors could put up food stalls. With the "scorching" heat today (yay for 70s!), it felt a lot like walking down 3rd street Promenade in Santa Monica! Only thing was I was unprepared and was wearing jeans and no sun screen.

The cheese tastings were really fun and I think next year, we'd make a longer time out of the event by checking out the wine garden and maybe trying out some of the participating restaurants. That, and we'd go earlier in the day.
