Greetings from Bellevue

I had a bunch of work to get done Friday morning, and we had a bunch of chores to do in Bellevue after lunch, so since we were over there, we went to the Bellevue Botanical Garden after a bunch of shopping and the post office. It's still mostly daffodils, flowering plum trees, and crocuses, but it was a gorgeous day to be walking in the woods and over the ravine bridge, with very few people around. Since we were nearby, we went to Crossroads Public Market for dinner and got pho and boba.

When we got home, we fed the cats, then watched Wonka, which maybe was not as bad as Johnny Depp's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory but it definitely wasn't good -- Chalamet's singing is okay but the songs just sound bland, and I'm really not sure why Olivia Colman wanted to do a "Master of the House" ripoff considering she actually played Madame Thenardier in the Les Miserables miniseries. Now we're watching Ricky Stanicky, which also isn't great but is making me laugh, so that's something.
