A few more Bham favorites

Can you tell we are eating our way through this city?! This is an old picture of a few of our favorite food items from Bellingham. We brought these with us when we went to stay with family in Seattle over the holidays. When we moved to Bellingham were very excited to find these locally made English muffins from Avenue Bread. Freshly made English muffins are just so much better than the usual ones you find the grocery store. These toast up just perfectly! And I love that they are so easy to find at the grocery stores around us too. I think it says a lot about a store/community when it's easy to find local products (especially bread). Of course we also had to bring down some local beer (Kulshan Brewing) and coffee (Hammerhead Coffee Roasters)!! I loved the description on the coffee....thought it would be perfect to take home to the grandparents!


Aslan Brewing & WWU

We had a friend from Seattle drive up to Bellingham for a visit today. One of the first places we thought to go for lunch was Aslan Brewing. We basically look for any excuse to have one of their bowls (we love the Hawaiin bowl with shredded pork). So delicious!!!!! I also had their seasonal Mosaic IPA and really enjoyed it.


After lunch we drove over to the Western Washington University campus and enjoyed the beautiful view of Bellingham Bay!

Lettered Streets Coffeehouse

A couple weekends ago we stopped by Lettered Streets Coffeehouse and enjoyed a lovely mocha and a raspberry scone. It's located just a few blocks north of Downtown Bellingham in a cute old building. It definitely has a neighborhood coffee shop feel to it and the littles enjoyed the neat artwork on the walls. Would definitely stop by again if we're in the area!

Now we're in Bellingham


Yes it's true....since I lasted posted on this blog way back in 2012 we've moved to Bellingham! (Not to mention we also had another child since then!) Our family of four made the move north from Seattle to Bellingham this past fall and couldn't be happier. Everything we could ever want or need to do is basically 5-10 minutes away. (All the grandparents are a little farther away from us....but now they too can come visit and explore Bellingham with us!)
