Peanut Butter Rules the Roost

Julia is back home and back into a routine of work and social activities. She has had dinner with Lia at Heritage India, ice cream with Jessie at Thomas Sweet, and dinner with Maddie and Maya. She has been helpful in taking care of the little piglet, Peanut Butter. He is a handful--always wanting to eat, poke holes in papers, and sit on your lap or computer--but also, he is three pounds of pure love. Look how he tries to help Julia brush her teeth, what a good boy.

I went to the Dupont Farmer's Market and got beef liver, soup bones, and a meat stick to try. Yum. They had already sold the beef tongue and oxtail before I arrived. Another farmer I had targeted was out of chicken feet! Yes, really. I'm not the only one trying to make an awesome bone broth, apparently. Lesson learned, the farmers told me to come early, right when it opens at 8:30am to get the good stuff.

Birthday Bash and New Hairdo

We celebrated Chad's 43rd birthday this past Thursday, May 19, with Chad, Nick, Mom, John & Maureen, Sarrges, and Simpsons. Before the delicious meal, Julia had her hair done at Bubbles Tysons. It looks great. Despite the rain, we trekked to Dr. Martens in Georgetown for Julia to get some new shoes. The dragon boat races were this weekend as well (bummer weather). Julia reconnected with Jessie at Heritage India, great neighborhood Indian fare. Saturday night was take-out from Whole Foods...sushi, rotisserie Peruvian chicken, and gelato. Sunday was the routine run to Wagshal's. To round out a wonderful weekend, I brought three bags to the Planet Aid box at Stoddert. Marie Kondo would approve.
