Salmon and Jasmine Rice, Lowell’s, Pike Place Market
Every once in awhile, the stars align for me. Last week that meant that I managed to snag a spot in the popular International Food Blogger Conference (IFBC) in Seattle and combined that with my planned trip to the region to shoot some photos for my upcoming cookbook. What I didn’t know before I went was just how great the experience would be – both Seattle itself as well as IFBC. Enjoy the Instagram tour of my weekend!
