August 31, 2012 (August Foodie Pen Pals)

On a whim, I joined Foodie Pen Pals. I was lucky to receive a package of awesomeness from Lesely. I was thrilled to be paired with her, since we share the same food philosophy when it comes to cooking (low sugar, high fiber, high protien). Her blog is inspiring. She graced me with tahini, pumpkin butter, veggie chips, flax seeds, unsweetened coconut, and a few chai teabags. (Bless her, how did she know!?)








How tasty (and pretty.)

Thank you, Lesley!

Sometimes I am overwhelmed by how much I adore my neighborhood.

August 24, 2012 (Jason Mraz Concert)

I owe a lot of my sanity to the wisdom of Jason Mraz. I mean really, how can you not be happy when you're reminded of this? Or this? Oh, and this. See what I mean?

We saw him at Merriweather, it was the most appropriate end of summer concert.

August 15, 2012 (Brown-Bagging Beers at Dupont Circle)

In what we both agreed would make an epic first date, we bought forties at the liquor store, paired it with a big bar of Ritter chocolate, and I lay with my head in his lap people watching in Dupont Circle.

August 12, 2012 (Central Park)

We were in New York for Caroline's bachelorette party, and had some time to kill before we caught our bus back to DC. It was so nice outside, we decided to take a walk around Central Park. It was so fun to see all the things I've only seen in photographs in person. (And then take my own photographs of them!)

July 31, 2012 (Wine Club)

You know the drill. Wine, friends, food. It's all my life is these days, and you won't hear me complain a single bit.
