baltimore in focus.

Woodberry Kitchen. Put it on the list. This farm to table restaurant is up in Baltimore and getting rave reviews. A bunch of us have already talked about making a night of it with a baseball game this summer. I have pulled photos below to tell the story better!

campaign beats.

I've faded on the music front of late. Sorry about that. To make up for my delinquency, I am including a whole list below for your review. The official campaign playlist for Obama was released yesterday and I got my hands on it. Well...in full disclosure and fairness, Politico got their hands on it but I still want credit. Getting to the point, there's something for everybody - classic, patriotic, young and upbeat, diverse - just like the big Party itself, we aim to please everyone...even when it comes to music at the rally. Enjoy!

ground hog's day.

the political runway.

There was a big Runway to Win event in New York last night for Obama. Scarlet Johannson, Diane von Furstenburg, Tory Burch, Jason Wu, Anna Wintour and an array of other designers were there to celebrate. Yes, this is happening. The campaign season was just taken to a whole new issue-less level. But at least we can buy our official designer scarf and nail polish before we head out to knock on doors.

pride factor.

I have been looking for a piece to display my Colorado pride in my apartment. I think it gets lost in my adoption of the East Coast. I can never see myself moving back West, but I do still miss it. What do we think of some of the below prints?!

organize this.

Look at this great kitchen organizer... or desk, or closet...love the old country look to it!

destination middleberg.

As part of our ongoing discussion of easy weekend trips from DC, welcome to Middleberg, Virginia. Middleberg is now on the top of my list to get to. Beautiful. About an hour from DC. Hiking and activities. Great food. Charming small town. What's not to love?
To top it off, someone in the office yesterday went this past weekend and stayed at the Goodstone Inn. It is a gorgeous estate and the restaurant is all locally sourced. And, the ratings and reviews make it sound even better. I am determined to make this happen once the weather is nice and Ben is back for the summer, Middleberg here we come!
