Episode 005: It's crazy to think that this week is the two year anniversary since I was let go from my last job. It was a weird day, it didn't feel like the other last days of work I had in the past. It was exciting because I knew the following week was going to be the start of a new focus, dedicating my full time to Find Me in Seattle. I go to this annual Ugly Sweater Party and I remember the day I got let go, I went to this same party, and now that I am going again this year, it's fun to reflect on that moment. 

This week I am starting two new segments: Meal of the Week, and Featured Business of the Week and here they are:

Meal of the Week: Shredded Chicken Congee from Congeez in Uwajimaya in the International District. Congee is an Asian Rice Porridge  that is complimented by a meat and topped with spices. Congeez comes with a lot of ginger which is great for sick and/or rainy days.

Featured Business of the Week: Low Rider Baking Company - Emily started Low Rider as a cookie popup, which she started to take to farmer's markets. She then grew into a space in Georgetown and then to a physical retail location in the Central District. She was actually one of the first brands to ever work with Find Me in Seattle when she reached out and asked if I would promote her company in exchange for a box of cookies. I ended up taking the box around the city on the 62 bus line and took pictures with the cookies at Green Lake, The Fremont Troll and Downtown Seattle. My pro tip, make sure to get a birthday cake cookie and the Oreo cookie. However, she has these new stuffed cookies that are amazing. 

If you don't have plans on Saturday April 14th, make sure you check out the Green Lake Pathway of Lights!
