Because it is the simple things that make you truly happy


Pitted kalamata olives are truly one of nature's (and Whole Foods) best gifts.

Brunch!!!!


Every year we go to Brennan's for Easter brunch. It is loads of fun; they have bunnies that you can pet on the patio, and the food is outstanding. Every year, after returning from Brennan's, we fall into a food-induced coma that last for at least two hours.

Polaroid Question



Does anyone know if the Polaroid film problem has been resolved? I have a hankering for a Polaroid camera.

When in the District, eat at 2 Amys, then go to Georgetown Cupcakes



2 Amys is D.O.C. certified meaning that they have been recognized by the Italian government as authentic Neopolitan pizza makers. I had lunch there on Wednesday and loved it. The roasted olives are really good as well. I may try my hand at them tomorrow.

Georgetown Cupcakes is fabulous; their frosting is perfect. Fortunately, the line was not spilling onto the street when we went by and we were able to procure a mint chocolate, chocolate coconut, and a chocolate with vanilla frosting. Tasty, my friends.

Bonjour, Bush



We slept late this morning, had tea/coffee, and then walked from Cristina's house in Georgetown to the White House. On the way, we stopped at The Bread Line for a sandwich; delicious. Next up, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. We circled the White House, made it over to the World War II monument and discovered that it was windy and cold along the river. After a warm up at Starbucks we made our way back to the house for a cookie baking session.
