When: June 26 // Weather: hot // Real life: James Taylor concert
It’s a good thing I don’t have any qualms about becoming my parents, because a couple weeks ago I put on some comfy pants and drove my hybrid car to a Bonnie Raitt / James Taylor concert. Now, how long before I get to retire? Because I’m already really good at being 60-something, complete with joint pain and constant complaints about the “youths.”

On my trip to Seattle, I went to this random boutique on Bainbridge Island and saw a ridiculous banana print dress. I mean, who would buy something like that? Yeeaaahhhh… Someone who apparently has a thing for fruit prints lately (I was actually wearing a strawberry shirt when I bought this banana dress). Also someone who had plans to attend a friend’s surprise birthday brunch a few days later, and that friend just happens to love bananas.
Plus, the woman at the shop (Magnolias) was super cool and gave us a great recommendation for wine tasting and lunch down the street, both of which we did and both of which were A+. And the brand that makes this dress is based in Seattle, so basically I was just supporting the local economy. So I went in with zero reasons to buy a banana print, but it didn’t take long to come up with about eight. Oh yeah – potassium – that’s nine.
