Washington DC Adventures!

My best friend Jenny came into town for a week long visit. I was so excited to see her, it had been over a year since I'd seen her last. I knew I wanted to take her to NYC for the day since she had never been there before. So we began to plan our trip to New York for Friday of this past week. The night before we checked the weather and saw that it was supposed to be super windy and rainy in the city. So reluctantly we decided not to go up there...but in turn we chose to go to DC seeing that the weather was going to be lovely. We researched where we wanted to go and decided on Georgetown Cupcake-better known as DC Cupcakes from their hit show on TLC. I have to say and I'm totally being honest here...their cupcakes were the best I've ever had! They were so delicious. I bought half a dozen: 2 pumpkin spice, 1 chocolate lava, 1 lemon, 1 coconut, and 1 chocolate peanut butter chip. So GOOD!! When we were at the shop their was a TV crew filming. It was really neat to see all the cameras and both the owners, Sophie and Katherine. My niece, Ashley was able to spend the day with us too. She is probably the most amazing teenage I know. She's got such a great head on her shoulders, she loves God and is so very special to me :) Here are a few shots of Ashley, Jenny, and Me.
After going to Georgetown Cupcake we shopped around Georgetown for a bit then headed off to visit some sights. We ended our day at Comet Ping Pong a pizza joint featured on the Food Network during a taping of Diners Drive-In's and Dives. This place was totally a dive. When we arrived we were told we had to wait a hour to get a table. We waited in the back room where there were ping pong tables. After about 25 minutes we got a turn to play. It was a blast! The time flew by and we were seated before we knew it. The pizza was AMAZING! Jenny and I said it was probably the best we ever had. Brick oven pizza. So very good.

Here we are playing ping pong! Such a funny picture...but so fun!~

I ordered their classic pizza with pepperoni and buttered onions. Oh my so delicious!

All in all a super special day with my super special friend and family. Love, love, love days like these! And who knew we'd find these amazing food joints! Now onto my next adventure....where will that be??? Who knows!
