the hardware store

Last weekend my friend, Safiya, and I took a ferry boat to Vashon Island. We went there to check out a restaurant, The Hardware Store. Safiya drove her car onto the ferry, which is a pretty cool thing if you've never done it before. The ferry ride was 20 minutes, it was clear, cold and very windy on the deck.   

 

The restaurant has such character. It is a beautiful building right in the middle of this quiet little town. It has a cozy feel to it, big booths, a lot of pictures and little knick knacks. It is one of those places where you wouldn't think so many different things fit together, but it works really well. 


There are cute little touches that add to the decor. (They have delicious coffee & the food is great too!)


Afterwards we went to the West Seattle Farmer's Market. It was small but it is one of the few markets that takes place year round in Seattle. Fruit, vegetables, delicious caramels and fresh fish. 


Safiya and I both bought flowers, daffodils and yellow tulips. I love farmer's markets!
