Why February, you ask? Well, there’s Valentine’s Day, with all of its pampering of your respective loved one (or ones). However, with the calorie-, gift- and memory-laden winter holidays (in all of its various forms) behind us, it’s also time to pamper yourself, not to mention remember that a true hedonist is all about balance.

(Think about the fact that the outside of your tummy needs to be as blissed out as the inside of your tummy, for example.)

Thus, this month will be dedicated to “staycations” and “weekendacations” – places in both (surrounding) Seattle and Victoria to sleep, slurp, spy, ‘n’ spa.

(Note that we do plan to focus on Vancouver … just post-Olympics, dear hedonists; for happy hedonists need not be harassed by huge hordes).

February … a time for lovers … of hedonism.

Happy healthy hedonism hunting!
