a night with Tacoma Girl
Feb. 10th, 2024 11:36 amI've been wanting to check out the new Base Camp 2 art space, where the long gone but prominent Bergman Luggage used to be. So I made arrangements to meet Tacoma Girl there. The trouble was, the web site gave me conflicting information: TG found a crew in there getting the place ready for their next show in March.
So we got a beer apiece at the Black Cat on 1st Ave, sat outdoors in our coats, and watched the bros and broettes walk by. But then Tacoma Girl had the idea of going to Fremont, and I said I knew just the place: Triangle Spirits.
I hadn't been there since before the pandemic. It doesn't seem to have changed much: the cocktails are still pretty great if not cheap. I had boozy egg nog that was to die for. Much chat was had as we swapped book recommendations, etc.
Oh: she's going to need a cat sitter next month because she'll be traveling with her mother, in case anybody has any recommendations.
But speaking of Fremont, I finally stopped in at the Lazy Cow Bakery on my way back from grocery shopping. They're full-on commies. Leftist orgs regularly meet there. They have a free food/comida gratis shelf. They have a Palestinian flag on one wall. Their baked goods are of course vegan, and I subjected them to an unfair test: I bought a day-old berry muffin. You know what? It was pretty good! I raise my fist in salute to the commie bakers & baristas of Lazy Cow.
