So the homeless problem in a big city like Seattle is obviously going to be much more pronounced than it is in a place like, say, Anchorage. It's something I notice whenever I'm there. They're everywhere, and it's sad but what can you do but toss them some change if you have it and not treat them as though they are something other than human?
On the last day of my birthday/shopping trip this past weekend, my sister and my niece and I saved some of our P.F. Chang's leftovers to bestow upon whichever down-on-his/her-luck person we passed along the way that we felt most compelled to approach. We were going to let our hearts be our guide. We hoped to find someone who would appreciate the small gesture, but really just wanted someone who would benefit from a meal.
And despite our best efforts to possibly help one hungry person make it through just one more day, these are the guys we eventually handed our leftovers - and a bag of Doritos! - over to:
 
The stoners with the munchies.
Somehow I think they might have made it through the day without lettuce wraps and crab wonton.
