Sarah & The Stranger Suggest the Same Stuff (sort of)
July 5, 2012
From: Sarah Studer To: editor@thestranger.com, artdirector@thestranger.com Subject: Sarah + The Stranger Suggest the Same Stuff (sort of) Pardon the Microsoft Paint mashup (and the alliteration), but isn’t this bizarre? Imagine my surprise when I picked up a copy of The Stranger off the floor at Oddfellows only to see my doppelganger on the cover, in […]
32 things to do this summer with Sarah
July 2, 2012
So, it’s finally summer in Seattle. Well, almost. As usual, the clouds have remained through June but the sun promises to shine come July 5th (two days after our big party – so annoying), but I don’t mind the wait. The rest of the country has been melting under heat waves and we’ve remained nice […]
photobooth props!
June 22, 2012
Thanks to a very generous donation of photobooth supplies from the wedding of Melogna & Jason, my collection of props has basically quadrupled, which is pretty awesome because I took inventory of it all this afternoon and was able to categorize and photograph it. I’m willing to rent it out (or parts of it) if […]
elizmases past and present
December 15, 2011
I was kind of surprised that searching “Elizmas” on my blog yields very few results given that it’s the second best holiday of the year. Elizmas is Elizabeth’s birthday and since she loves Christmas so much, we’ve made it into a perfect mash-up. We use Elizmas to take advantage of all of the holiday activities […]
baseballoween
November 1, 2011
I learned an important lesson this Halloween. After years (YEARS!) of INSISTING that I make my own costume and wrapping myself in flimsy paper and packing tape and running the risk of my costume falling apart mid-way through the night (which it always did), I discovered that Halloween is WAY more fun if you’re comfortable. […]
service girls, july 2011
August 17, 2011
Oh man – I started this post over a MONTH ago and am just getting around to posting it now. I kept blaming the loss of my camera battery charger, but then I realized that the photos from this event were actually on my phone, so really there’s no excuse. So anyway, a few weeks […]
dreaming of the “dîner en blanc”
July 6, 2011
I read about the Dîner en Blanc a few months ago on Oh Happy Day and immediately fell in love with the concept: “everyone” (invite only, of course) wears white, packs a picnic – complete with tables and chairs and heads to an undisclosed location for a 3 hour outdoor dinner. The best part is […]
service girls, june 2011
June 27, 2011
On Friday, my volunteer group visited OPERATION: Sack Lunch for our June service call. OPERATION: Sack Lunch is a meal and basic necessities provider serving the un-housed, no and low income, food insecure children, women, and men, who call Seattle their home. We are a grassroots project that began in 1989 with 30 lunches in the kitchen of founder, Singer / […]
the places elizabeth went / weekend recap
June 27, 2011
My most favorite philanthro-friend Elizabeth made a spur-of-the-moment decision on Thursday afternoon to come spend the weekend in Seattle, and I had exactly 46 hours to show her everything I love about the city. On Friday afternoon, we went to happy hour at re:public and then to the Seattle Public Library to see Harry and […]
kendall getting (got) married
June 20, 2011
As I mentioned in the toast, Kendall’s name was never the first to come out of anyone’s mouth when we speculated about who would be the first person to get married. We definitely laughed that she would probably be the first person to have a child, given her general hatred of them – so that […]
potential bad habit alert! (an ode to yogurtland)
June 16, 2011
I just met up with Zoey of Drunk Boys with Cigarettes for lunch. At Yogurtland. If you haven’t been to Yogurtland yet, you really ought to stop what you’re doing and head up to Capitol Hill and see what all the fuss is about. You won’t be disappointed. It’s similar to Red Mango, Crazy Cherry, Mooberry […]
the places melogna went
June 13, 2011
Melanie (aka “Melogna”) returned to Seattle with us after Vegas, rather than flying back to Boston before Kendall’s wedding. She stayed with Emily for a few days, with Kendall for a few days, and with me for a few days. It’s been a great trip and we’ve loved having her here… but at one point […]
