This is going to be the easiest post I’ve ever written.
I think writing that sentence will be longer than the ingredients for our recipe. Let’s try:
Chicken. Mint. Salt. Plum Sauce. Shichimi.
Yep. (Wait, what was that last one?) Well, finding the correct ingredients for this one might take longer than a trip [...]

Thank you so much to every one who trekked out in the rain last night. Our small group certainly made a large dent in what turned out to be the least attended game in the National’s Park’s history… But the sparsely populated ballpark also made for a great playground [...]

Nestled away in a gorgeous residential neighborhood, a delightfully rustic French restaurant has been catering to nearby residents for the past 25 years. We were greeted with a handshake and said our farewells with the typical kiss on each cheek. Presenting us with perfectly typed out recipes and instructions, [...]

Who is the enigmatic founder of LetTeddyWin.com that we are trying to entice you to come spend your evening with? Well, he’s a Washington-area local who happens to be a huge Nationals fan. (That alone could be reason enough to come quiz him about his “real” background story, right?)
But, truly, he’s [...]

See that scoreboard? That’s a typical outcome for DC’s most-loved and most-lost mascot. THIS is why we need you to come rally in support of Teddy Roosevelt, his big, fluffy head, and his poor technique. We’ll also drink some beers and generally have a good time.
LetTeddyWin! Join many [...]

As you read earlier, Katie and I spent yet another Saturday morning slaving away in the kitchen for you, dear reader. Not that we mind.

In the calm before the storm (what? there’s another blizzard coming?), we were able to take a breather and have a little fun out of the house on a day when the brown/green grass was just starting to show itself again.
Good times were had last night at Wisdom Cocktail [...]
