I had a delicious brunch at Founding Farmers in DC for my best friend's birthday this weekend. I ordered the "drag through the garden" veggie scramble with leek potato hash browns. The scramble was really good, but the hash browns were amazing! I'd never had hash browns with leeks before, only onions. The leeks gave great flavor though and I definitely want to try recreating the recipe at home! They have a really great drink menu with unique flavors (more than just the typical mimosa or bloody mary). I had a white peach bellini that tasted really fresh.

If you've never been to Founding Farmers, I highly recommend it. Make sure to get a reservation though! The restaurant tends to be pretty busy.

I've been doing a lot more online shopping this year, but I'm always hesitant to buy clothes online. It's hard to tell the fit and quality, but I took a chance with a store called Venus. We got their catalog and this adorable dress had just been staring at me on the front cover...

I decided that I had to have it (probably for new years). So I proceeded to add a bunch of stuff to my cart and racked up quite the total, knowing that I would more than likely be paying a return fee for some of the items. Well, when I finally received the package I was sorely disappointed in the quality of the items. I bought a couple dresses and shirts and non of them were flattering. The sequined dress? Started shedding sequins the minute I pulled it out of the bag. The shirts I bought were cute, but the seams were wierd and the fabric was so thin that I think if I washed it the shirt might become see through! I've learned my lesson and won't be buying online anymore - but just wanted to warn anyone who might be considering ordering from venus.com! ugh. </rant>
