*Insert drool emoji!* 🤤 The gourmet brioche doughnut pop-up at @miflavour was INSANE. Everything they do shows their dedication to making a beautiful product, and this was no exception. We ordered one of each flavor - huckleberry (our fav) tiramisu, raspberry, lemon, Dubai chocolate, maple bacon, and French toast, and the boys can’t stop talking about them. I bet if you ask really nicely, they’ll do it again! 🥹 In the meantime, you’ll definitely want to pop by and enjoy a fancy little dessert. They always hit. 😍😍😍

I couldn’t have said it better myself! 🥰 📸 @tessfarnsworth

We had so much fun last night at the @spokanezephyrfc game! These ladies left it all on the field, and were inspiring to watch. It was cold, but the energy level of the game kept us toasty. 🔥 What I loved most was seeing such a wide variety of people cheering on our Spokane team. From tiny kids just experiencing their first popcorn to retired couples enjoying a night out in this beautiful stadium, it was really sweet to see people out and about. Pro Tip: Next time I will definitely bring for the parking pass! It was a little tough to find parking with so many events happening at the same time. 😅 Thank you to Reilly Harnetiaux and the USL Spokane team for inviting us. We already can’t wait to go to our next match. ⚽️

⚽On the podcast this week (Episode 111!!!) we welcome the phenomenal Reilly Harnetiaux to learn more about how a team of four people has grown to a world-class soccer league right here in Spokane. We dive deep into their journey of launching @spokanezephyrfc and @spokanevelocityfc with Reilly, who is the Director of Sporting and Community Engagement for USL Spokane. What started as a bold idea has become a full-blown movement—led by Spokane natives Katie and Ryan Harnetiaux—proving that our city is ready to shine on the national soccer stage!⁠ ⁠ Listen in at trendingnorthwest.com/pod or visit trendingnorthwest.com and check out our recent article about the episode which has a handy direct link!⁠ ⁠ How did they do it? From carefully selecting coaches and staff who truly understand Spokane to igniting the passion of the 509 Syndicate supporters' group, Reilly shares how every decision was made with community at its heart. Spokane’s die-hard sports fans showed up before the teams even had names, and now they pack bars for games to cheer on these amazing athletes!!!⁠ ⁠ Reilly is on a mission to support the work the team does in the community beyond the pitch. She coordinates visiting schools, working with nonprofits, and teaming up with outreach programs to help them build a genuine legacy through sport. ⁠ ⁠ As Reilly puts it, “Soccer is not just a sport. It’s the world’s sport, and it has the power to bring people together.” Get ready to feel inspired, pumped, and maybe even a little teary-eyed— this is an episode you won't want to miss! 🔥⁠
