The past weekend was actually pretty awesome. A friend of mine came down from NYC, thankfully having done all the touristy stuff at some point prior to this visit and not requiring that we visit every single Smithsonian Museum, or any of them, for that matter. Instead, we went to Old Town Alexandria, which is a quaint little neighborhood. After brunch, we went to a bead shop to play with beads and feel young again.
There are times in life when an ice cream is so good that you are compelled to visit the same ice cream shop multiple times over the course of a single weekend. The Florentine Perche No attained this distinction with its delicious watermelon gelato that we had 4 times over a three-day weekend when I was studying abroad last summer. The urgency to visit the Dairy Godmother, which I will have access to for the rest of the summer, is not nearly as dire, but I did it twice this past weekend anyway.
Yesterday, I made banana chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast and made my friend endure the wait associated with plating and photographing the results.
In th evening, we had the truly patriotic experience of listening to country music (because I was too stubborn to go to the better concert) and watching fireworks on the National Mall.
