PNW Beer Moms

   Last week the Northwest Washington PNW Beer Moms met up for some merriment and gluttony at The Woolley Market in the small city of Sedro Woolley, a town known for its' chainsaw scultper competition, western flare, amazing tacos and mexican food and great views of the cascade mountains. There couldn't have been a better place to hold our December meet up!     I wanted some small town holiday charm for our December meet up and Sedro Woolley didn't disappoint, with lots of lights and a huge Christmas set up in the middle of the main down town intersection. My photos of it doesnt give it justice, but you got to appreciate a city that creates a roundabout for a Christmas tree! It really set the mood for the evening!     I'd never been to the Woolley Market, but knowing that it was run by a fellow Beer&Body Craft Beer Girl Rebecca and had a self serve tap wall, I knew I was in for something special. And boy was I right! It's a beautiful huge build

    There I was in a sequin santa hat, kidless, in our family burgundy vanagon, spreading hipster happiness as I drive through town on my way to pick up our donations from the Food 4 Tots drive at Stemma Brewery. I cleaned out the van in anticipation of some marketable photos for our social media and website to show how PNW Beer Moms are here to participate in making our community a caring place. I made sure to have some swag on and planned on taking pictures of hugs and hand shakes, but God had other plans. He had a lesson in humility at the ready.     I pulled up in front of Stemma, right in front of the big glass garage doors so I could easily load the donations. I turned off the engine and pulled out the key. I checked the address of the of food bank on Google and just as I was about to text my husband that the van "ran like a champ, didn't stall once" I heard a "click...click..click, click,click, cliiiiccckkk". The same warning I've heard right before
