Nothing's free, right? Well, as it happens, some things are. We're experimenting with an advertising platform built by our paisans over in Capitol Hill, Instivate. That banner you see between the first and second post on the Wallyhood home page and the other one you see at the bottom of the sidebar are both powered by their InstiAds platform. One of the cool features of this platform is that it automatically allocates 10% of the "inventory" (page views) for free ads,…

Break-in at Quizno’s?

I stopped by Quizno's for a little diet pepsi and saw some wood paneling (where there should have been glass) on their front and side doors. The sandwich artist on shift said that the store had been broken into last Monday night/early Tuesday morning - cash and food were missing. I didn't get much more information than that, so let us know if you've heard anything else. Hopefully, the sammies will be safe going forward.

Free Lecture on Parenting Teens

While I've still got a few more years (thank goodness!) before my little ones reach their teen years, I'm somewhat daunted by the prospect of--what my mother often described as-- living with aliens under my roof.  As a teen, I had to agree, only I thought I was the normal one and she was the alien.  Knowing what I've put poor mom through during that time, I'd say I've got my work cut out for me! It's true that not all…

More Yard Art

We were peddling up Wallingford Ave the other day, dragging our tow of delicious Essential Bakery dumpster-diver bread when we noticed this beauty towering over the sidewalk. The beauty we're referring to is the the piece of art, not the artist, Marvin Oliver, standing next to it (who's not bad-looking, mind you, but not as stunning as his work). The piece is suggestive of an oil drill, perhaps, pulling power and myth from the earth. The images on the side, we…

Bluebird Sandwich

Let's say the economy is in the dumps. Let's say further that the real estate market has led the charge into said dumps. Now let's say that your job depends on real estate and development because you're, say, an architect. Suddenly, there's not so much architecting going on. What do you do? Well, if you're our friend and Wallingford resident Nicole Winn, you start making really, really good sandwiches. As a Senior Associate at Weber Thompson, one of Seattle's top architectural…
