It seems like I was just on the west coast (and in fact I was), but I’m off to the old Pacific Coast again, southern california this time. And I’ll be heading off to the bay area for a weekend too. For those of you freezing you buns off in Philadelphia – see ya suckers!

At the good ol philly airport. How about them Phillies? Has the curse finally been undid? Hope y’all enjoyed the ticker tape parade!

While waiting for my flight, I dined at SEATAC at Pallino. It’s a fast food pasta joint. It’s a local chain. They have pizza here, but this ain’t no Sbarro. I got penne a la vodka and also got a chopped salad to go.
The pasta comes in some fancy takeout ware. It was fine, but nothing exciting. One thing annoying were their forks. I know they were trying to be stylish, but really, this wasn’t a fork, it was a mini plastic trident. And it was nearly impossible to actually pick up pasta with it. I ended up having to spear the pastas from the open ends. Too much work if you ask me.

Yes, seriously, Denny’s. Looka here, when you’re driving around SEATAC, there’s pretty much nothing to eat. And I mean nothing! We just needed a snack.
A with her chocolate shake.
Denny’s hash brown. Don’t any of you poo-poo this. I love me some denny’s hash browns.
I also got the caramel apple crisp a la mode. I was wavering between this and cheesecake and our super friendly server recommended this. Dude, it was so good. And now, I promise not to go to a Denny’s again for another 5 years.
