Seattle Summer Outdoor Movie Guide 2014
It's time once again for the fresh air escapism of Seattle's various outdoor movie series. This year's slate is loaded with multiple opportunities to catch '80s classics like The Princess Bride and Ferris Bueller's Day Off, '90s favs like The Big Lebowski and Jurassic Park, and new hits including Gravity, Despicable Me 2, and The Lego Movie. There are also plenty of quirkier options including Fremont Outdoor Movies' Wes Anderson tribute (The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic, and Rushmore), MOHAI's sweet double feature of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Chocolat to correspond with the museum's Chocolate: The Exhibition, and Three Dollar Bill Cinema's cheeky "Teenage Dreams!" lineup (Bring It On, Clueless, and Teen Witch)

This Ballard Ave pub will be quaffing for a cause this Wednesday. All proceeds from Lowercase Brewing and Fremont Brewing Company pints and pitchers will benefit Room to Read, which supports gender equality in education and literacy. If beer’s not your thing, $1 of each boozy, lavender-infused King’s Lemonade will also go toward the cause. There will also be a raffle to support the organization.
Iron Vintner Challenge at Woodinville Winery
It's the final year for Willows Lodge's Iron Chef–esque culinary competition, and the first round happens on Wednesday, with 2010 Iron Vintner winner Darby English squaring off against 2013 winner Lisa Baer. Tickets are available online, and a portion of proceeds will benefit Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center.

Barrio Popup in Bellevue
This Capitol Hill favorite will once again bring its revered muscat margaritas and pork carnitas to the Eastside this week with its second popup at Cast Iron Studios, the private event space that was once home to Barrio Bellevue. The $30 prix-fixe meal will include diners’ choice of starter, entrée, and dessert, and a selection of Spanish and Portuguese wines, cervezas, and tequila-heavy cocktails. Call 206-838-3853 for reservations.
Frost Doughnut-Eating Contest
Frost’s grand re-opening coincides serendipitously with National Doughnut Day, and the shop is celebrating accordingly—with its fifth annual doughnut eating contest. Hopefuls can register online. The prize? A $100 Frost gift card. Because exactly what you want after a doughnut eating contest is even more doughnuts.
