I took my kids to Dr. Lee-Engel a few times, and I was always happy with the care that we received. She used tuning forks on my kids, not needles. She was attentive, caring, professional, and above all, really understood what was going on with my kids. She used a combined Eastern and Western approach, and it worked. I'm so glad we went to her. Now we live too far away. I would recommend her and One Sky Medicine to anyone.

I was very impressed with the Chinese Medicine clinic here. The students were thoroughly trained and understood well. They were great listeners. What I was really impressed by was their teachers, who were obviously some of the best in China, now working here at Bastyr. Bastyr has a sterling reputation in this field, and it shows in this clinic. I have seen several providers here, and so have my kids. They are affordable, take insurance, and even though the visits are a tad long (student clinic), they are very thorough and calming. I very much enjoyed going here...too bad I live too far away. These people are experts at treating the whole person...and they were a lot better than the ND clinic downstairs.

My first experience with acupuncture was with Paul. He was just starting out with his own practice, and it grew so much that he got his own office. I appreciated his skill and calmness so much, since I was going through some difficult life changes when I saw him. He was younger than me, but had wisdom beyond his age. I greatly appreciate and am thankful for Paul's gentle help in my introduction to acupuncture and Chinese herbs. He was a great stepping stone for me on my journey. I don't feel that Paul's knowledge base back then included as much female treatments, so I moved on to another acupuncturist who could understand pregnancy and lactation better. Paul is a great provider for chronic pain, injuries, and emotional healing though.

Suzy Myers and Marge Mansfield own and operate the Seattle Home Midwifery Service and Childbirth Center, as well as being founders of Seattle Midwifery School many years ago. I chose them to be my midwives for my second baby and initially for my third (until I moved to Tacoma).
I recommend them to anyone for a well-supported pregnancy, highly knowledgeable birth attendant (they've been midwives for something like 30 years!), and professionals who are well-respected in doctor and birth circles all over the world. You can't buy that kind of experience anywhere.

Wow, I finally found a little kids' heaven right here in University Place. Odyssey 1. Oh yeahhhhhh, how cool is this place. My oldest son had been to a few birthday parties here with his dad and brother, so I had never been. Since school was out on St. Patty's Day and it was raining and I was feeling rich, I decided that Odyssey 1 was the place to go. What the heck, I thought, try it out. If it sucks, then I can choose to not come back.
I found a coupon for $5 in tokens. The admission price was good for all of us: $11 total. I was amazed by the largeness of the play structure and it's relative safety and cleanliness. The employees regularly patrolled it too, so that was good.
We ordered pizza, and I was fully expecting the same gourmet quality of a Chuck E. Cheese piece of cardboard. Not so. Their pizza was actually quite good and flat. I was surprised, so then I wasn't so taken aback by the $16 price for a large pepperoni. The games were fun too, although $5 in tokens does NOT go far at all.
It wasn't packed like I thought it would be with school out and rain. We had plenty of time to sit and chat with the locals and eat our pizza. I never felt rushed or overwhelmed. Even the baby liked it. So I blew $27 to entertain my kids on a rainy day, and it was so worth it.

I'm not going to be like the other cool people who have reviewed the restaurant and crapped on it. There's quite a few "hip" Seattle places that serve crappy food and crappy atmosphere that the cool people just love.
Every time I've been to the Needle restaurant (about 5 times), I've had great food, better than some other well-known Seattle restaurants. I'm not going to join the Needle bashing, because they've greatly improved their menus and the quality of the food. It's hard to cook at a higher altitude than the rest of Seattle, and they do a good job of it.
The viewing experience is outstanding, almost as good as the view from the Columbia Tower Club. Maybe their tummies were upset by the Needle taking a full rotation around Seattle every hour? Or perhaps they don't like the well-deserved notoreity and how the Space Needle has become the symbol of Seattle. Sometimes, I'm tired of the smugness of transplanted or woe-is-me Seattleites.
I'm a native Seattleite, and for what it's worth, I'd go to this place for a special occasion meal faster than I'd go to the traditional places like Ray's (even though that's awesome, it's definitely overpriced and hard to get to). The best restaurant in Seattle for food and experience is Canlis, and I doubt the "cool" people will trash their overpriced food or views.

It's ok

For a nursing tank that's cheap and readily available, this one suits the bill. Beware though, these run REALLY SMALL. I normally wear a large size in top when nursing, but in this tank I needed almost an XXL after washing it. And I wash everything on cold, low temp dry. I'm tall too, and the torso on this is just too short, defeating the purpose of the tank. I just wear the regular tank tops with built in shelf bras underneath my tshirts, and I lower the top of the tank to nurse my daughter now. I find that it covers better than a nursing tank and there's no awkward fumbling of the hook. I don't want to draw attention to myself and this nursing tank will for sure do that. This Target tank is nice in theory, but really not worth the money. Old Navy sells shelf tanks for $5 that work better!

Used to be better

I always go to Old Navy to buy my jeans, unless there's some serious sale stuff at Sam's Club. Old Navy jeans fit me well, last for a long time, and they are quite inexpensive. Only trick is that some seasons, NONE of the jeans are made for my womanly body, and some seasons that's all they have. Old Navy has gotten trendier and I'm finding less and less jeans that will fit my body or are of good quality. I will still shop here first, but it's getting hit and miss for jeans. Even their regular clothing has gotten a little cheaper in quality.....hmmmm.

Factory

This place is weird. I finally went into the Thomas Kinkade Gallery when I was at the Mall yesterday. I think his paintings are awful....mass produced flea market stuff! I saw the report on him and his empire on 60 Minutes and thought, wow, he's just exploiting a market, so good for him. Except that he sells this bad art as his own that he painted himself, which is totally false. They hire art school people to paint these, then sell them at a fantastic profit. It's just paint by numbers at a ridiculously expensive price tag, and under the cover of Christianity. How totally unChristian. The store itself in layout is ok, kinda small and packed so that they can get the most money what they're paying in rent per square foot. I have no problem that people get taken in by this "non-art" garbage, I just have a problem that this Company does it in the name of Jesus.
