D.C. Food and Fall Leafs

Hi Everyone!
   What does one do while exploring D.C.? Eat good food obviously! From donuts to breakfast banh mi sandwich, my mom and I had a lot of delicious treats :)

   On our first day we had a cup of chedder broccoli soup and a buffalo chicken sandwich from Potbelly's.

   I was craving a donut, so we went to District Donut! A hipsterish donut shop located in Georgetown, across the street from Georgetown Cupcake. I had a apple cider donut, my favorite, and my mom had a vanilla donut. I also had a cup of lavender earl grey tea to accomplany it. Since it was later in the day, they gave us a donut for free during donut "happy hour" :)

   We ducked into an Italian grocery store, just for fun, it had some really cool things and beautiful cookies.

Macarons for days!

Wax sealed fudge! Super cool!

   Right next to our hotel was an amazing bakery called Bread Furst. This place was the deffinition of what a bakery should be. It was full of freshly baked sweets, a varitey of different breads, special breakfast foods and LOTS of hungry people! We ordered a brakfast banh mi sandwich which was one of the best things I've ever eaten, seriously, it was that good. And of course some loafs of raisen walnut bread and mini apple pies to take home. I got a pumpkin muffin with actual huge chunks of pumpkin in it! The best pumpkin muffin ever ;)

The pumpkin muffins!

   And lastly. look at these super vibrant fall leafs! lol. I collected a few leafs while we were at the park ;)

Spring Has Arrived

Hi Everyone,
    Over the weekend we finally had spring time weather! New York has been extremely cold for this California native. My husband and I walked down to Broadway, the main street, for some fun and relaxation. Both of us are recovering from a nasty chest cold, so we thought a little fresh air and sunshine, aka radiation, would cure us. We stopped and got a drink at Plum Dandy; our local frozen yogurt and boba tea shop. I didn't have a boba tea but I did get a really delicious  dairy-free smoothie called the Honey Bear. After some refreshments we walked over to the park, which we haven't been to yet, and it was a HUGE park! Bigger than any public park I've ever been too. We saw ducks a plenty and even a mother duck who had eggs. Perfect for Mother's day.

Lots of people were there as well and most had really cute dogs with them~ Apparently, the local High School was having their prom that day so we saw many girls in prom dresses. My favorite part of the day was being able to wear my new spring clothes and share the beautiful day with my husband.
