It’s Me!

Some of you already know me but for those who don’t here you go…. I have lived in Renton for a year now but have quickly adjusted to my new surroundings and consider it home, so this blog is as the title says “All About Renton”. My partner in crime, Sammy, and I are all over Renton with our ears to the street finding out about all of the great things Renton has to offer from parks, plays, restaurants, businesses and anything else Renton and we are destined to tell you all about it. Thanks for reading….

    Great Sushi in Renton!
    It’s called the Sushi Cafe and it’s amazing. They serve high-end, top quality fresh fish. The owners are local and the service is very good! I recommend sitting at the bar. This place has given the hill what it hasn’t had before. Interesting raw and “cooked” sushi and rolls that you don’t find in other sushi places. Especially not in Renton. Google them or take the drive up fourth, just past the big Safeway on the right.

    This is a great site, it is nice to see all the local resources we have in Renton categorized in one place. I especially appreciate the love for the Renton Public Library; as an employee there, I feel attached to it and nothing makes me happier than to see it being praised!

    I just stumbled upon this blog and I can’t believe my eyes!
    It is exactly what I needed to find out who’s who and what is where in my “new” home.

    Thanks so much, and keep up the great work!

    Would be Renton girl, makes good.

    Check it out please

    Last Thursday night, the Seattle Cold Readers did a reading from “THREE-TWO-ONE” a screenplay by Gail Moss. So what’s it about? Well…

    It’s Sex in the City meets Weight Watchers… kinda! A girlfriend comedy about three friends (two women and a “man”) and their martini hampered efforts to lose weight, understand men, find THE dress, and overcome parents and salesgirls to get Emma and Logan down the aisle. Emma an extra curvy redhead, with a little help from her friends; Gwynne a snarky semi-drag queen and Mandy a philosophical dumb blond, is the glue that holds this trio together.

    The actors performed an abridged version, twenty minutes in length, that focused on only one aspect of the screenplay, buying a wedding dress. For a look at their work check out all three parts at http://www.youtube.com/moviesbymoss

    Full credits can be seen at the end of part 3.

    Are you on Twitter by any chance? Just wondering so I can give you an @ when I link to you (I’m @pnwlocalnews with regard to local/Renton news—affiliated with the Renton Reporter (@RentonReporter, incidentally)).

    Hello,

    My name is Casey Rentz and I’m an administrator for the Renton Reporter’s Newsgarden site, a new site where people can share news, photos and links about their neighborhood. I loved your blurb about the harvest festival this Saturday, so I shared it on Newsgarden (with a link back to you of course). But I wanted to make sure this is all right with you. If you’d rather this not be shared on Newsgarden, please contact me at casey.serramedia@gmail.com.

    Thank you,
    Casey
