JAM - and Tick Tick BOOM...............

I'll admit that the title of this post sounds pretty crazy but there's an explanation............  JAM is a breakfast and lunch cafe on Hawthorne, across the street from my favorite bakery.  For years I've noticed people standing outside on the sidewalk waiting for a table to open so yesterday morning, Callie met me there to try it out.  It's a winner.................

Our timing was good because we had a table as soon as we arrived at 10 a.m. I love Portland's breakfast cafes because they know what people like and they offer eclectic and interesting dishes.  Check out the menu - it's three pages filled with choices.

Allison and I have season tickets to the Triangle Theater on Sandy Blvd.  It's a small theater group who come up with some "off the wall" and unusual plays.  Their goal is to provide plays that promote diversity and tolerance that addresses a broad range of social and political issues.  Last night was the first production of the season "Tick, Tick...Boom!   It's a musical so we not only enjoyed the acting and story, but we also heard really great music. 

To make the evening perfect we started out with an early dinner at Iorio, one of our favorite places to get fresh hand made pasta dishes.  The love affair with Portland continues.............
