Darwin sent in these photos taken at 8 pm tonight by 44th and Wallingford (outside of Julia's) of a flipped SUV: Hard to see exactly what happened, but he says "I could only see the one vehicle involved. SPD, SFD and towing were already on the scene." Hope everyone's OK. That's awful close to a playground.

(Wallyhood welcomes our newest writer, Helen Kim, reporting on last week's Wallingford Community Kitchen. Slideshow photos by Matt Mason.) Imagine being a member of a big extended family. Big. Really big. Grandparents, aunts, uncles, teenagers, even an adorable little baby. All cooking a big meal together. Now, imagine the residents of Wallingford as the members of that family in the kitchen of the Good Shepherd’s Senior Center. This was the scene at the Community Kitchen I attended on Friday night.

Education and entertainment in one kid friendly package. If you missed it you have a whole year to think about how excited you are to experience it next time it comes around. Here's a slideshow of the evening to whet you appetite.
We read on Fremont Universe that the loads-o-fun Lifelong AIDS Alliance’s Gay Bingo is moving from the cavernous and echoey South Lake Union Naval Reserve building to Fremont Studios (155 N. 35th St).
