This is what democracy tastes like.

Wanna exercise your national right to vote and get free ice cream?
In honor of today’s election, every Molly Moon’s Homemade Ice Cream shop is giving a free scoop of ice cream to customers who present their ballot stubs all day. You vote for a better future, you get free ice cream, and everybody wins.
As you slurp on your extra salty salted caramel scoop (that’s just as good in November as in the summer) or fulfill your inner PSL needs with a spoon of pumpkin clove (except way less basic), high five your fellow voters for partaking in our democracy. Have a friendly debate about politics (or not). Perhaps you prefer to debate which Molly Moon’s location is the best. Or maybe you’d rather chat up the staff about their employee record label.
Vote for your favorite representatives, vote for a better school system, vote for what you believe in, vote to stick it to the man. And if these options do not sway you, vote for ice cream.

Seattle Buildings Just Let It Bee
There’s a buzz happening throughout the region
You know the Smith Tower as Seattle’s original skyscraper. You know that the 108-year-old, 38-floor tower was once the tallest building west of the Mississippi.

Dining In, Dining Outdoors in Ballard
Ballard restaurateur Tommy Patrick helped reimagine Ballard’s outdoor dining scene at the start of the pandemic, sparking a trend that’s likely here to stay
In a past reality that seems almost like a dream, Seattle’s outdoor dining existed only in the summer months, when we were all just happy to be in actual sunshine, even if it disappeared as quickly as the tables and umbrellas. Then, during the early days of the pandemic, dining stopped. Everything stopped. From a…
