With the exception of unseasoned fries and a room temperature baked potato, our food was very good.

Amanda worked with us to choose a dog based on our lifestyle and desired temperament, and she chose perfectly. Macallan is one of the sweetest dogs, a lover to all, and always up for an adventure. We had asked for a dog that has the energy to backpack and hike for days but also likes a good relaxation day - and that's him in a nutshell. We even have had WAR watch Macallan when we go on vacation - and every time, when we pick him up, he's so happy and acts like he got his own adventurous vacation, too. Highly recommend working with WAR to see if their dogs are a good fit for your household and know that you'll have a great support network.

I got updates from the moment I sent my deposit up until I was able to take my puppy home! Will absolutely go back to them when it's time

I chose Skagit River because their cattle is grass-fed and the business is certified humane. From their website: "At Skagit River Ranch, we have 3 principles we hold dear to our hearts: 1.

Certified Organic practices with no chemicals or pesticides" I appreciate their commitment and the woman who works the front counter on Saturdays (when you can come and pick up your order) is super nice. Everything I've ordered from them has been great, including the eggs. Highly recommend if you're looking to order in bulk to save money.

The benefits of grass-fed beef are enormous and worth the effort to get it. You can buy small portions or order in bulk, too. From their farm store (on Saturdays only) you can buy eggs, individual cuts of beef & pork, sausage, honey from their hives, and seasonal organic produce. I LOVE their short ribs. You can find their meat and eggs at various stores in Mount Vernon, Bellingham, Seattle, Mountlake Terrace, Federal Way, Tacoma, Kent and Enumclaw. And in 2010 at Farmers Markets in Seattle and the Eastside so I suspect selling at Seattle and Eastside Farmers Markets will continue!

We were in town for the first time, and my husband was looking up dinner places. The name of this…read moreplace excited him so much that he decided to surprise me by not telling me where we were going. He could not be more hype about an average diner called 'Big Scoop'. The area has some parking spots, but when we arrived, all the parking spaces and all the tables were taken. They were quite busy for a Wednesday evening. When we arrived, we had no idea what to do. Do we sit ourselves? Do we wait to be seated? Do we place an order at the counter and then sit? There was no signage and no greeting to inform us. So we stood there, feeling silly and out of place, for a good few minutes, before one adult staff member approached the counter to punch an order into a computer and literally said to us, 'I don't have time to talk to customers right now, sorry.' Ooooookay we'll just keep standing here. Eventually, our waitress/savior Kate greeted us, sat us at a table, and gave us menus. She was younger, upbeat, kind, and apologetic for the confusion. We looked over the menu, and a third staff member came by to take our order. I ordered the Big Scoop cheeseburger basket with fries & my husband ordered the hot ham & cheese with fries. The hot ham & cheese was your average grilled cheese with a protein. Nothing special. The burger was good, but nothing special there either. You'll notice that the other half of the menu is all. ice. cream. Just options and options of different ways to order your ice cream; the flavors are listed on the wall, not on the menu. They are happy to make any changes or customizations to your ice cream order. IMO the menu was overwhelming with no easy way to sort or compare options, so it needs an overhaul in the way it's presented. We ended up getting the #13, Sweet Superstitions, with the flavors Moose Tracks & chocolate peanut butter ice cream scoops. Again, nothing special here; the two cherries promised in the menu was just one cherry cut in half, and the peanuts were stale. The fudge wasn't hot either. For a place called Big Scoop, we got pretty small scoops of ice cream. When we checked out at the counter, Kate helped us out again. She was very encouraging and was so excited to have us in town for the tulip festival. I hope Kate gets a raise or goes far in life! Overall, a fun memory but an underwhelming experience in terms of service and flavor.
