Saturday, Tera will give herself a VIP tour at the opening of Aritzia. She will follow this potentially hectic event by introducing a friend to her newest wine obsession - Twisted Cork.

Art Brut's newest effort singles like "Modern Art" and "Bad Weekend," but it still delivers some memorable songs like "Direct Hit" and "Nag, Nag, Nag, Nag."

This series of tours, hosted jointly by the Seattle chapter of AIA and Northwest Home and Garden magazine, feature a different home each month. Stop by between noon and 3pm.

The very word "bog" might be more than you care to know, but bogs turn out to be very handy things for our rain-prone region. According to the state Department of Ecology, a bog is defined thusly:

If your Sunday agenda included nothing but complaining about how The Simpsons is past its prime or wondering how Desperate Housewives' Eva Longoria was snubbed for yet another award, it's time for a change of plans. This Sunday night, and every Sunday from now on, you should take yourself a quick nap and head out to Rebar for Flammable, Seattle's longest running house music night.
