Happy weekend! I can&#8217;t believe Christmas is almost here? I&#8217;m so glad I&#8217;m done with my Christmas shopping and gift wrapping so I can just focus on Christ (the real reason for Christmas!) and focus on my husband\/family time. Planning makes a big difference. Today, we went to see the Snowflake lane event at Bellevue and it was a fun night. My favorite was the fake snow,\u00a0the music and lights were great too! There was a ton of traffic and we couldn&#8217;t find \u00a0parking for 30 minutes,but that&#8217;s OK (It&#8217;s expected after all since it&#8217;s the last weekend before Christmas). We had dinner before going to the event, so we&#8217;re all good!<\/p>\n<p>We had dinner at Spice restaurant (it&#8217;s in the crossroads \/ bellevue area)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/calamariqueen.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/19\/snowflake-lane\/image-224\/\" rel=\" rel=&quot;attachment wp-att-6444&quot;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6444\" src=\"http:\/\/calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/image34-1.jpg?w=538\" alt=\"image\" width=\"538\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/image34-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/image34-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/image34-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 538px) 85vw, 538px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Braised Pork Belly!
