As if chocolate alone isn’t enough, tonight Theo Chocolate adds music, massage, and meditation to the menu. Can you believe it? Head over to Theo’s fun shop in Fremont to sample some chocolates and sip some Choice organic tea. They’ll have a string quartet playing, and if you’d like even more relaxation, you can enjoy a complementary Ayurvedic mini hand massage with Sweet Beauty chocolate lotion. Or ante up and purchase a two-person Ayurvedic warm oil massage or chocolate body scrub treatment. (Will they accept chocolate coins as payment?)

SPORTS: Garfield vs. Franklin basketball is the best sports rivalry in the city. Only happens twice a year. There's bands, guys trying desperately to impress their friends in the stands, and usually a cheerleader battle or two. This is as close to Duke-UNC as we have in this state. NOTE: Bring a sweater, the gym will be COLD.

Seattlest remembers well the day we were sitting at the Victrola back bar and Byron Schenkman, harpsichordist and co-founder of the Seattle Baroque Orchestra, turned to us and said, "I've been thinking about switching to piano." Well, you could have knocked us over with a skinny decaf latte. And if you think it's not big news, tell that to the Seattle Times, P-I, and Seattle Weekly. (We couldn't find the Stranger's most recent commentary -- kinda wish there was a way to date-order the search results.)

All steel and blonde wood, the new Ballard library, opening this Saturday, May 14th, at 5614 22nd Ave. NW, appropriately resembles a modern-day Viking ship with a huge upward sweeping bow. Funded by the $72 million Seattle Center/Community Center levy that voters passed in 1999, the library is an architectural marvel that in may ways equals the main branch downtown.
