While in the islands, the husband needed to do a little bit of real-world work, so he and I set out trying to find some internet at local cafés.

Café Demeter in Friday Harbor was our choice for a spot to hang out that day. I had one of their super-delicious spinach and feta croissants, which I ended up eating before I could even think about sketching it. Priorities!

After a while, we headed up to the Lime Kiln Café in Roche Harbor, which has the most delicious veggie burger that I’ve eaten to date (not a vegetarian, but I thoroughly enjoy veggie burgers in their own right), which might be helped by the fact that it’s crusted in macademia nuts. So good. Also forgot to draw it. *sighs*

While I was on my vacation, my husband and I brought along a Beta copy of Lyssan, a fantastic strategy board game designed by a friend of ours. I chose to observe and make notes while the other half taught his family the game.

And by “make notes,” I mean, “tried to learn how to use these watercolor things.”
