Last summer I went to an epic wedding in Austin, TX. Just for a little taste of how epic the wedding was, I ended up in the emergency room at 3AM with a head wound. Had to get about a dozen staples and that was the night before the wedding. So epic.
The thing I remember [...]

A few weeks ago Betsy and I had a few friends over and I decided to whip up a few pizzas to feed us. I haven’t posted on pizza recently (although I have in the past), but it’s one of my favorite things to make at home. While it’s pretty difficult to replicate excellent restaurant [...]

Last week Betsy and I went out for her birthday dinner to Cashion’s Eat Place. The place is kind of an institution in DC and is consistently ranked very highly on the best DC restaurants. Betsy and I rarely go out to eat actually so it was a nice treat.
