“Mommy, stop talking.” Sebastian tugs her hand, his voice whiny again. She gives their back a dirty look as they pass without apologizing. Someone bumps into her, knocking her purse and tote bag off her shoulder. Sal’s mother is recovering from hip surgery. “Everything okay? How’s your mother?” She grabs Sebastian’s hand again, listening as her oldest friend recounts his stressful morning.
She cradles the phone between her shoulder and ear, thinking about how great it would be to have AirPods for moments like this, then remembers she doesn’t want to be one of those asshole moms walking around wearing AirPods. “Bash, stay close,” she tells her son as she hits Accept on her phone. The last thing she wants to do is chat, but it’s Sal. She checks the call display it’s not her husband. Maybe it’s Derek and the game’s over already. The market is too loud for her to hear her phone, but she can feel it, and she lets go of her son’s hand to reach for it. Derek’s somewhere on First Avenue, enjoying a beer in a sports pub and watching the Huskies play, while Marin handles the last of the shopping with their rapidly tiring four-year-old. He thinks she’s trying to justify turning their little boy into an uppity eater, same as she is.īut Derek’s not here. Derek, on the other hand, refuses to buy into his wife’s reasoning. She tells herself that it’s okay to spoil him once in a while, and anyway, everything at La Douceur Parisienne is made with pure organic cane sugar and locally sourced honey. In Sebastian’s defense, he wouldn’t even know such a thing existed if on previous trips she hadn’t dragged him into the candy store for the chocolates, which, in all honesty, are a goddamned delight. Marin is well aware of how insane that is. No item inside costs less than four bucks, and the oversize lollipop Sebastian wants-the one with the rainbow swirls-is five dollars. It’s unapologetically high-brow, and while the store makes all kinds of sweet things, it’s best known for its “bean-to-chocolate handmade artisanal French crème truffles.” The storefront is painted Tiffany blue, its pretentious name stenciled in elegant gold cursive across the windows: La Douceur Parisienne. They know it well they’ve been many times. It’s a fair negotiation, and he stops whining. “Bash, please, five more minutes,” she says, exasperated. Sebastian believes Santa is going to bring all his presents, so in this moment, sugar is the only thing he’s interested in. Her four-year-old son couldn’t care less about Christmas shopping. She prides herself on giving thoughtful, personal gifts. He’s tired, and getting cranky, and what he really needs is a nap. “Mommy, I want a lollipop,” he says for the second time. His little hand keeps slipping out of hers every time he yanks too hard, trying to pull them in the direction he’s determined to go. Sebastian’s jacket is shoved into one of Marin’s shopping totes, but still, he’s sweaty. Combine it with last-minute holiday shopping and an extremely mild, sunny weekend-almost unheard of in December-and you are in the busiest nine acres on a Saturday afternoon in Seattle. I use it every day for myself.Pike Place Market is a tourist trap on a regular day. Although I don't put that much work in this project anymore I still keep it up to date and it's still running fine and used a lot. LittleSecrets was one of my first Cocoa projects started back in 2001.
