WELCOME TO PASSPORT!




first post! i'm excited to be back and ready for a great year chock full of great LLC events. we've already begun: bake-offs, picnics, free plays at the kennedy center, etc etc etc..

the week began with our epic bake-off: apple pie from nick and my grandma's guava cake recipe (pictures to follow). the next day was brenna's birthday, which included a cake made of cupcakes (the "cup cake") and ray's hell burgers in rosslyn. yet another reason to love DC. wednesday night we had our first LLC meeting of the year and everyone attended. we heard about upcoming events and recent news about the french pm and this great hip hop group.

what else, what else.. friday night was first friday, which is free art at a gallery in dupont circle. a couple of us made restaurant week reservations at vidalia, a fancy place not too far from campus. that was DELICIOUS. i will never get over the pork cheeks with crawfish etouffee. saturday i went on a picnic with nick and we went to see free previews of plays at the kennedy center (flat stanley and ferdinand the bull). we're excited for "if you give a pig a pancake" at the end of the year and CATE BLANCHETT STARRING IN A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE FOR MY BIRTHDAY IN NOVEMBER.

sunday a bunch of us went to malcolm x park near u street to see the drum circle and eat a delicious picnic which included hummus and sandwiches and chinese candies.

GREAT WEEK TEAM. more to come soon.
