Since July 1, 2007 to the day, I've attended, count them: 8 weddings. That's almost a wedding a month son! Is it something in the air, or is it just that all of my friends are at that "marrying age"? Ah, it's probably a combination of both. Probably doesn't hurt ...

Our company recently completed a weight-loss competition, in which we - depending on how serious you were - stripped ourselves of the bare essentials. For some, these "essentials" included cake, pork chops, deep fried foods, or a combination of the three. For me, it was sushi!
Twenty one "out-of-thin-air" pounds and ...

We did nothing but feed our faces in the last one di'in't we? And nooo, it wasn't due to the "munchies" silly. It was simply because it was all *I* did during my westerly travels in Maui. But trust..., if you are patient enough, I'll make like Sean Kingston and ...

No, the "wowie" in the title is not what you think, Cheech. I'm actually referring to all of the exciting things you can do while exploring the beautiful island of Maui. And in true World Wide Ed fashion, let's take the logical approach and break this thang down by sections, ...

OK class, when we last left off, we ate up Seattle favorites like Piroshky, Piroshky, Le Panier, Beecher's Handmade Cheese Cafe, and Salumi's. This month, we'll be exploring Paseo's Caribbean Restaurant, Umi Sake House and Salty's on Alki, but before then, your homework assignment please.
Huh? You didn't do what? Don't ...

Ever notice that if you combine the words See and Eat, you (almost) get Seattle? Not quite sure what "tle" stands for just yet, but gimme some time and I'll figure it out. For now, let's just go with what nature, er, make that Doc Maynard has given us when ...

When you think "island style," you think Hawaii and our innate, laid back way of life. After two recent trips to the Big Island of Hawaii, I quickly discovered that we ain't got nuthin' on 'em. This here is true, island style living and I'm about to show how you ...

Pops and I have this ongoing joke/battle with each other about where the best Japanese eats are around town. Hailing directly from the heart of Tokyo, he's got this unyielding, old school, traditional Japanese palate, while I have more of an open "nu skool" hunger for innovative dining experiences. Who's ...
