Okay, it's not food-related, but I'm the boss of this blog, and I like this. The U-District UW Bookstore will have booksellers and booklovers (including Nancy Pearl) in their Holiday Advice Booth, "doling out book suggestions to all comers." Suggested donation is a just a shiny quarter, and proceeds benefit the Book Store Scholarship.(Saturday)
