Thinking about D.C.

51 Things I Miss About D.C.

Not my list (my old boss sent it to me to boast about our store being .24, and damn it, I am proud of our well-stocked shelves!), but an especially timely one for me right now. Especially considering that I have not experienced even half of these things.

Methinks it's time to finally get to know my city a little better, when I return around mid-January. Which is the plan now, in case folks were wondering.

When I worked at the Shakespeare Theatre, we contracted Cakelove to provide some of the concession snacks. The guy who runs Cakelove is a tall, handsome former lawyers and the female house managers were just drooling over him. He could've gave them overcooked cupcakes and rock-hard cookies and they would've agreed to his contract still.

Cakelove is all about image, not about taste.

Sounds like I'm doing the right thing by staying loyal to Georgetown Cupcake. Still, if I'm ever in the area, I'd like to see just how shitty they are, so I can better appreciate what I have. I'm always up for knowledgeably hatin' on the Man, at least when baked goods are involved.

i agree about cake love -- they are never moist and i don't like their frosting. Georgetown Cupcake is far superior.

There is a new place in Dupont Circle -- I think it's just called "Cupcake" that I've been meaning to try.

I like this list :) It captured a lot of what I know and love about DC and made me even happier we decided against moving to Baltimore.

Oooh, a Dupont Circle one? All the more incentive for me to come back! Let me know how it is if you go, otherwise mayhaps we'll go together upon my return! If nothing else, I certainly need to hit up a few of those recommended restaurants.

i would love to go on a cupcake outing with you. Or to discover any DC spots on the list. i don't even care if i've been there before, it's always fun to share something i love with a dear friend :)
