New Age of extra income

Budget eats: The Herald visits Poppy, a Seattle restaurant owned by the former chef at the world-renowned — and wickedly expensive — Herbfarm.

Poppy's much less pricey than the Herbfarm, so if you dine there, you'll only need to brown-bag your lunches until payday instead of raiding the kids' college fund.

New Age of extra income: The Whidbey Institute offers workshops today and Saturday on indigenous musical instruments such as the Native American flute and the didgeridoo.

It's the first step toward your exciting second career as a busker on the streets of Seattle. The spare change you'll collect from passersby will help you pay down the credit card you maxed out at Herbfarm.

Where's the killer app? Today is “Black Friday,” the day people flock to the malls to buy stuff. If you're stumped, we've got some cool gift ideas for the iPhone or BlackBerry user on your Christmas list.

Gadgets that charge your phone's battery are great, but we're still waiting for the ultimate iPhone accessory: the one that enables it to work with wireless companies other than AT&T.
