Hansen’s Florist Grand Opening on January 25th

We alerted Wallyhood readers to the opening of Hansen's Florist back in December. Business is blooming and the Hansen's folks are introducing themselves to their Wallingford neighbours via an Open House on January 25th. Stop by to check out the flowers, enjoy refreshments and take home a free balloon for the kiddos! Hansen's Florist is a family-owned business that has served Seattle since 1945.

Elemental, My Dear Watson

We've lived 19 years in Wallingford, and somehow never made it to Elemental (3309 Wallingford Ave N) until this past Friday night. Sure we'd heard stories: the owner has an attitude, don't expect friendly, thinks he's too good for his customers. There are no reservations, and there's always a line, so there's no winning. Absolutely wrong. That we had to tromp down the slushy ice field that was the Burke Gilman on Friday night explains the lack of a line on our visit,…
