Finally, if the coming of 60+ degree weather makes you crave ice cream, enter the Wallyhood Fainting Goat Gelato contest!  Here’s all you have to do:  close your eyes, picture the neighborhood of Wallingford as a giant scoop of gelato, reach out and take a bite.  What flavor do you taste?  Post this as a comment and the winner will get 2 free pints of that flavor!  But do it today because the deadline is Monday.

And, as always, see the Wallingford Music and Nightlife Calendar for even more goings on.

Helen has lived in Wallingford for 16 years and think it’s the best neighborhood in Seattle, possibly the world. She has worn a track between her house, QFC and the library and spends a lot time poking her nose into things. She is a mother, does volunteer work and is interested in local, green and child-related issues. She has an advanced degree in English literature and thus reads a lot and enjoys the craft of writing. She also works part-time for her husband’s software company (doesn’t everyone have a software company around here?).
