The Big Gin Spin: This sounds like some sort of ragtime-era con artist technique (like maybe something out of The Sting). Or maybe just an any-era puking technique. But you know what it actually is? It's an event where you can drink a little gin and then go for a slow rotation on our ferris wheel.

Bothell Beer Festival: It's a friendly-sounding neighborhood beer festival in that city just to the northeast of Lake Washington.

Tamale-Making Class: Yes, it's $75 dollars, but think of the weekly savings when you kiss goodbye to those expensive, flimsy store-bought tamales. It's an investment in your future. And the money helps support Beacon Hill's Centro de La Raza.

Pike Brewing Anniversary Party: There will be a parade to celebrate the 25 years of beer.

Seattle Restaurant Week: Did you know that Seattle has restaurants? During Seattle Restaurant week, you can eat at restaurants while being in Seattle. It starts on Sunday.
