Beautifying Redmond with sock art!

I LOVE Suzanne Tidwell’s “yarn bomb” that she did in Occidental Park last summer and was so excited to see it has come to  Redmond’s Anderson Park! I was driving by today on my way back from sushi at Whole Foods (I have to get my salmon sushi fix there at least once a week) and saw Suzanne on a ladder up a tree!  I asked if I could grab her picture "knitting" around the tree and she was happy to oblidge.  I love this.  I love art.  I love art meeting up with nature and with our everyday lives, which is something the Seattle area is so well known for.  It's definitely brightened up that park and brightened up Redmond!  Yeah!

Gene Juarez partners with Susan G. Komen for the Cure to offer in-salon mammograms during October

Last week KOMO-TV visited the downtown Seattle Gene Juarez Salon and Spa to meet some of the women receiving in-salon mammograms. Participanting women not only received a mammogram screening, but they also enjoyed a complimentary relaxing mini hand treatment or foot soak, a soothing cup of tea and a special gift.

The screenings are continuing today at the Redmond Town Center Gene Juarez, and on Thursday, Oct. 27 at the South Hill Mall and University Village Gene Juarez locations.
