When was the last time I wrote about a restaurant? I’ll give you and myself a moment to think and guess before you go into my tags and find the answer. The answer is not as bad as I had imagined, since I’ve actually written about two restaurants since the baby was born, but it’s […]

Restaurant – minibar

I am going to preface everything in this post by saying that I am a very lucky girl, and that it was a privilege to be able to go to this restaurant. It’s not necessarily the kind of thing that everyone can do in their lives, and even for us it was a special occasion […]
Restaurant – Toro Toro

Earlier this month, I got to do something that is inherently cool, and that is to tour the West Wing of the White House. I may not agree with or like the current occupant, but the building itself and its history are pretty awesome, and to be respected. Tours happen after business hours, so the […]
Outing/Restaurant – Tea at the Ritz

Gift giving is HARD. Especially when you’re trying to think of something for your mom who doesn’t need more STUFF, and who even when you [promise to] do something that’s practical stuff (things like: I’ll knit you a cowl!), sometimes you just fail at making happen. That is totally not me that I’m talking about […]
Restaurant – Central Michel Richard
You may have noticed lately that I’ve spent a lot less time talking about restaurants on the blog. That’s partly on purpose. After we bought the house, the Boy and I decided that while we loved going out to eat, one good way to cut back on excess spending costs was to eat in more. […]
Restaurant – Proper 21

I feel weird writing about a restaurant that doesn’t seem to focus a lot of time on being a restaurant, and which was mostly just ok. So if that’s all you take away from this blog post, maybe that’s enough? But why would I got here in the first place if I didn’t know what […]
Travel – Richmond Restaurants

After a fun day at the State Fair, the Boy and I were looking forward to exploring Richmond with Ben and Nicole. We had been promised good food, cute shops and a good time overall. I will say here in advance that we were not disappointed. So rather than vamp any longer, I’ll get right […]
Restaurant – The Inn at Little Washington

The Boy recently celebrated a semi-significant birthday, and so I wanted to do something really nice. We had already planned a weekend away in the mountains, when suddenly it dawned on me that we wouldn’t be too far away from that premier dining location – The Inn at Little Washington. So despite it being months […]
Restaurant – Copperwood Tavern

I used to live in the cute little neighborhood of Shirlington. It’s a neighborhood centered around a retail center of shops and restaurants that was the first large suburban shopping center in the DC area (opening in 1944), and even one of the first of it’s kind in the country. With the addition of a […]
Personal – 6 Recipes or Restaurants I Have or Want to Try This Year
