Last weekend I headed down to Seattle with an amazing group of women, to meet up with even more amazing women (about 12 in all), for a night of fun girl bonding at my friend’s condo in downtown Seattle, complete with a spectacular rooftop garden.
The Seattle Skyline and the Big Wheel from the roof
We had dinner at Black Bottle, which was delicious, and I had a wonderful artisan cocktail called a Rootstock – and I have no idea what is in it because Black Bottle doesn’t have a current menu posted on their website. Oh well, just keep it in mind if you find yourself at Black Bottle. YUM! The food was excellent too – small bites to share. I had deep fried olives, ahi tuna, hanger steak, fire blasted broccoli, salads, calamari, and whatever else got passed around. All the dishes were awesome!
My Rootstock cocktail – delicious!
After dinner we headed back to the rooftop garden to drink sparkling wine, and yes, there *MAY* have been a bottle of Fireball passed around… We laughed and there was silly lip-syncing going on – Rent! anyone? I swear that wasn’t me – I don’t even know the soundtrack to Rent. Or Moana… And anyone who knows me knows that Karaoke is not my thing…
The weather was beautiful, although a little cool, but you can’t beat a night like that in Seattle in early June.

Sadly, my girlfriend is moving away next month, but hopefully we can still keep up a girl’s night tradition. Girls really are good for the soul…
