My husband has done most of the cooking this week, but I did make an apple crumble on Sunday, that should have had leftovers, but was completely consumed that night. Tonight I am planning on roasting some peaches I got at the farmers market and then topping them with ricotta and honey. It is something I have been…

We are doing a food truck (in less than two weeks). Our original plan was to have two, one with very American food (mac and cheese, bbq, etc.) and one with something more unique and also better for the vegans and allergies, but only the unique option actually got back to us, so we will be having Vietnamese food served…

I used to go to Adams Morgan just to go there, sometimes even sober. I was so happy when I found out they opened another location on U Street.

It is Iowa, not sure if I would want to eat raw fish in the mid-west either.

Greek (which unfortunately ended years ago) was also a great show when it came to diversity. While it was still primarily white, there were other races included in the main cast. In addition, there was a gay interracial couple, which I found impressive because it is still uncommon to see interracial couples on tv…

We just sent out invitations and are at 300, it it’s very very easy to end up with that many when you get married in your 30s and both come from huge families. The majority are family, which includes aunts, uncles, cousins with plus ones if over 18, and my great aunts and uncles because I grew up seeing them all…

I own a lot of gadgets (like more than I ever want to admit), but most of them get used fairly regularly, however, the quantity of glassware in our house for two people living in a studio is beyond ridiculous. It takes up two shelves in a cabinet and that is after moving two dozen stemless wine glasses to storage. It…

I like strawberries a lot and after digging my nails in to pull the top off my thumbs start to not feel great, and a strawberry huller is perfect for that. (I know I could use a knife, but then I would end up removing some of the delicious strawberry)

We are planning on doing food trucks (though that may change soon, considering we are having to postpone our wedding by a month now). To account for the large quantity of people we are planning on having games and activities while the food trucks are available and having the cocktail hour and food trucks overlap, that…

I have never used it in my personal life, but use it regularly in my work. However, I prepare cost estimates for a living, and so the term has more to do with attributing an appropriate labor rate than anything else.

I am super thrilled Tatiana Maslany is nominated, she is amazingly talented, I regularly forget that it is just her playing so many different people.

I understand, but unfortunately it encourages everyone in the country to assume that DC is just made up of the feds/congress and thus not care that there are 600k residents in DC who have no representation in congress and very little control over their own laws (they are able to pass laws but congress can reverse…

The short story is that I asked one night while we were climbing into bed, because I felt ready and wanted to.

They are in DC later this summer, and this was the first year I have actually managed to grab tickets before they sell out. I went to the site two hours after the tickets went on sale and half the sections were already gone, but I got some and I could not be more excited, so happy I didn’t wait to see if any other…

Important question, how was Double Daddy? and, is it available On Demand? I saw the preview while watching the first episode of UnReal, and am really intrigued, it looked so insanely ridiculous, but I am afraid to get my hopes up and then it being boring. I have been burned by too many films that are supposed to be so…

We are using Zola, which allows you to import from other sites.

We are doing ours tomorrow and I realized the only part I am excited about is the possibility of convincing her to take one alone of me that I can use as my LinkedIn profile picture. Right now all of my pictures are group shots or me drunk neither of which is appropriate for linkedin, but a decent picture, where I am…

Okay, this is a super old post, but I just got to read this from a link on another article, and it made me excited because I grew up in Delaware and I think my parents were also married at Vicmead (and am also very familiar with Deer Park). I have never heard much about the day, but the pictures were so bad that even…

Now I am a little nervous that you are my sister or a good friend. We got engaged a year and a half ago, and aren’t getting married until October, because I was in grad school and we figured it would be easier to wait until that was done. My sister has been with her boyfriend for longer than my fiance and I have been…

In dc you don’t even need an officiant, you can self officiate. It is pretty awesome
