25th Anniversary Date

SEATTLE, WA :: 25 years ago, Kristie and I had our first date at Palace Kitchen in Seattle. What better way to celebrate our 25th anniversary than to return to where it all began, exactly 25 years later!

It was wonderful to see that Chef Tom Douglas and Palace Kitchen are still going strong! The food and cocktails were outstanding, and the staff couldn’t have been sweeter, going out of their way to make our evening feel extra special.

We also wandered around my old Belltown stomping grounds, including a stop by my old apartment next to the monorail, where we spent so much time in the early days of our relationship. Lots of memories packed into those few city blocks! We wrapped up the evening with laughs courtesy of the hilarious and informative Alex Falcone at Laughs Comedy Club.

A perfect night of nostalgia, great food, laughter, and celebrating the life we’ve built together. We’ve now shared more of our lives together than apart, and I wouldn’t trade a single moment. Here’s to the next 25 years!
