Welcome, Linda. Brave gal....we visited Seattle area last summer....WOW, haven't seen traffic like that since California days. Had a great time tho, in your wonderful city. I am in Medford, Or

Welcome, Linda. Tell us more about your cats, the kind of work you do...all that stuff friends "talk" about. Glad to "see" ya! Seattle's a nice town. DH and I visited a couple of times...liked the ferry system a lot. We had sparklingly beautiful weather and no rain when we came even though we were expecting it.

Hi Linda, welcome. I'm live in Wisconsin; have been to the West Coast, but never Seattle. I work as an office manager in a chiropractor's office; what kind of work do you do??

Hi Linda,welcome!

Glad you came out of the woodwork!

Welcome, welcome, welcome. So glad you came out of lurkdom. It's so much more fun. I'm Dottie. I live in Williamsburg, VA with my DH and 2 year old goldendoodle. You must have been lurking for a while if you know enough to bring chocolate!

Welcome Linda. so glad you decided to join in the conversation. Pull up a chair at the KT and jump right in - the more the merrier.

Welcome Linda,from the other side of the country...

Welcome Linda! Hi from Pennsylvania. My condolences on the loss of your husband.

Chocolate decadence? Come sit right here by me, haha. (I'm patting the seat beside me)

Welcome, Linda!! You live in one of my very favorite cities! And Nanny, you live in one as well, I did not know you were in Medford. I'm on the other side of the country as well, in PA. Keep an eye on that Katlan, I think she has a fork in her purse!

Welcome to the table. We visited Seattle in 2007 and have fond memories of your city. Hope this is the first of many posts.

Welcome, Linda! I'm in Pennsylvania, but I know all about Seattle because I've watched Frasier and Grey's Anatomy. LOL

Smart of you to bring chocolate.....

Welcome to the KT! I live in Missouri with my DH of almost 25 years, 2 cats and a dog.

Hi, Linda -- I'm happy you decided to join us!

Welcome to the Table...you can't find a nicer group of people on the WWW then right here....so glad you pulled up a chair!!

Choklit is always nice to share...I brought the plates and forks!!

Welcome to the table, Linda. New friends are always a treat, and the choc cake is a plus!! I live in central Virginia, retired now, never been to Seattle. DD2 lives in San Diego, so DH and I hope to make a trip out, and drive all the way.... up the coast..... as far as your state, one of these days. From what I have seen in pictures, and on TV, it is beautiful there!
And my condolences on losing your husband.

Hi,Linda. My husband has cousins in Seattle, we visited once as part of a cruise to Alaska. Wonderful food, markets,seems like a great city.

Hey Linda. Nice of you to join us. So, you're a cat lover. Us too, though we currently don't have any, but did for many, many years.

We've been to Seattle as we have friends there, one of which is coming here later this week. Always a great place to visit.

Welcome to the table, and thanks for bringing one of my favorite things to eat...chocolate cake.

Welcome Linda,
So glad you decided to join us.

Hi Linda! I'm sorry to hear about your husband. I live about 60 miles south of you! Do yiou have snow this morning? lol

Waving from sunny Florida! I will put the tea kettle on! I am married and have 3 teens, 2 cats, and 1 1/2 dogs. The 1/2 dog is only here half the time-my oldest DD (19) shares the dog with her BF.

Hi Linda, and welcome to the table. I live about as far away from you as possible in the lower 48. We're in Florida. Hope you'll enjoy it here as much as I do.

Welcome Linda. I live in central Indiana, homemaker and never retired! I have a red Pomeranian, named Izzi and she is quite the character. I have 4 grown children and two Granddaughters. Glad you came out of lurkdom.

Hi Linda, I'm Anne from Northern Wisconsin. I have two poodles, a biggie and a smallie. I have two kids, a DD who just turned 23 and a DS who just turned 21 who go to or graduated from UW-Madison. I've been married to DH for 24 years, and am currently working full-time.

I, too, am also sorry to hear of the loss of your husband. Thanks for posting, and hope we see more of you:)

Hi Linda. Welcome to the KT. I am a northern California transplant to Iowa. I have been to Seattle. I have 3 cats and one little dog.

Wow, thanks for all the nice 'welcomes.' I'm at work now and don't have time to post more but will later.

@Kat - no snow where I live (Kent) but I work in Mukilteo and we have snow here. I'm dying for spring to get here!

Hi Linda, glad you decided to post. I live in western WA too, also an admirer of cats and lover of chocolate. ;) Pull up a chair and make yourself comfortable.

Welcome, Linda!

Glad you decided to do more than listen ... but to talk some, too (well, where we can hear, anyway).

If you've been lurking for a while, you'll have learned what a friendly, helpful place this is ...

... and I love choklit, too - so thanks for the stuff that you brought.

Heck - we even give out free hugs, when you need 'em, as well - what more could one ask for?

Welcome Linda from Lana in Amarillo, Tx. I've always wanted to visit Seattle; it looks so pretty there with so much to see and do.

I'm a cat lover also and currently have two. Thanks for the chocolate...you can never go wrong with chocolate! :)
