So I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but most times during a month, I’ll have a recipes following two regularly recurring events – college friend potlucks, and book club. Theoretically this would have been a day when I should have done a recipe for book club, but for the first time we decided to go […]

Restaurant – Aldeerah

I like to think that I’m an adventurous eater. But really, it’s not quite true. There are a few certain vegetables that I don’t like to eat, and those veggies tend to show up again and again on menus. Even American restaurants I will have problems with if there are too many mushrooms, tomatoes, cucumber, […]
Restaurant – Evo Bistro

And I’m back – as promised. Though I’m still exhausted from a week of craziness, things are starting to calm down a little bit. And it’s letting me remember an awesome dinner I had a few weeks ago. As previously mentioned, my young adults group at church like to go out for brunch, and during […]
Restaurant – Live Oak

Apologies for the delayed post this morning. I was being very productive. I had my safety inspection done on my car, and I remembered having it done the year before at the same service center in my neighborhood just before we closed on the house. Which means we’ve been there for nearly a year. I […]
Travel – Montreal

Late in the summer/early in the fall, the Boy and I started looking around to where we might go for our “long holiday weekend travelling” in the fall. One place we’d talked about for a while was going up to Canada – so close, and still technically foreign! And with the Veteran’s Day weekend providing […]
Restaurant – Co Co. Sala

So I think I’ve established pretty well that the Boy and I are big fans of trying out new (and old) restaurants. And with our Shakespeare Theatre tickets, we have evenings where we are already in DC and have the opportunity to go out and enjoy ourselves. The evening we saw Romeo and Juliet we […]
Restaurant – Jacques’ Brasserie

I’ve mentioned before that my young adults group at church likes to do brunch (and happy hour). And we are serious about it – every month, we choose a restaurant, and we chow down while catching up socially and doing planning. This time, we even did some spiritual discussion. It was a very good event. Part […]
Restaurant – Cafe Berlin

When the Boy and I took H out to her very first weeknight theater experience in DC, we decided we wanted to do the whole shebang, which for us includes dinner beforehand. The main problem with doing that and going to the Folger is that the Library itself is properly on Capitol Hill…and the surrounding […]
Travel – London Restaurants

How long did you think I could stretch out content from our London trip? Did you answer 3 months? Ding ding ding! But today’s post is potentially one of the most useful from that trip, so best for last, eh? Obviously I love good food, and the Boy does too, so we were eager to try […]
Restaurant – Del Ray Pizzeria

I love pizza. Like in the way that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles love pizza. I probably eat it in the same graceful way that they do, which is to say, not at all graceful. I love pizza so much that I rarely give myself time to let it cool, and will often burn the […]
