George Michael dead at 70.

2009-12-24T17:25:00.003-05:00

With much Sadness, I received a phone call from a friend earlier this afternoon who said that George Michael died. He was a big influence upon me, a simple girly girl, who knew not a thing about sports. Through the years of me chasing boy's by learning sports stats, Michael's had been a girls best friend. I enjoyed his redskins interviews with the top brass, as well as the player's and the fans.

His presence in Washington will be missed.

BREAKING NEWS

Reports from the snow fight says that the police is now attempting to shut the event down, Apparently a few snowfighters have thrown a few stray snowballs at MPD officers, and their cars.... How do i put this lightly, All hands on deck is this weekend, and people are being real pricks because of DOT's piss poor execution of the snow removal. {And if you question their abilities, there are plenty of streets in dc that I know of did not have any salt or "salt treatment" on it before the snow came and didn't even have any shortly after it started either.

Please dont piss of the police.

MacDonald Oatmeal Undeniably Delicious? Or an Undeniable Dud?

2009-12-17T01:51:00.005-05:00

In a blind sighted hunger I did something today that I normally don’t do. Fast food isn’t my favorite type of food to say the least, its not even close. Today I stopped by the mothership of all fast food restaurants, MacDonald’s. And what did I see plastered all over the windows,Oatmeal at MacDonald’s.

Who would have thought?

So of course being the curious little creature I can be at times I HAD to have it. Now don’t get me wrong I do love a few things that come from MacDonald’s, in particular the fruit and walnut salad and the Holiday Custard Pies. The Custard pies alone will be the sole proprietor of my biweekly pay checks and by the end of the week my thighs have ballooned into Turkey legs from Disneyworld.

But less about my thighs and more about this new product…

Instant maple flavored oatmeal with a side of mixed fruit {apples green and red, Cranberries, and Raisins regular and golden} isn’t the most visually appealing item on the menu, but health wise It probably beats that new two dollar Big Mac by a mile.

So let us Break it down, Break it down, Break it down!

The oatmeal was rather plain to say the least; the maple taste was barely what one would call a hint of maple. If you’re like I, a lover of sweet oatmeal it would be best supplemented with two or more packs of sugar. Sort of runny, milky, and watery, not as thick as I like it, but then again this is the golden arches were talking about.

The Green Apples and sour are a tart taste that seems to be the black sheep in this family.

On the other hand the Red Apples were right in place and added to the taste of the dish.

The Cranberry’s OH. MMMMM.GEEE! I am not one who is big on cranberry’s but they surely were the star product, sweet, sort of tart and very good.

Raisins regular and golden…. Hmmm. I don’t know why they were even placed in the dish they weren’t good, they weren’t bad, they were just there, much like the whole concept of the dish.

So Would I deem this dish to be F-A-B-O-O?

No. but it would get a F-A or in the world of ordinary which I don’t live in two stars. I recommend this to anyone who doesn’t have the time to spend the 3 mins it takes to make Quaker’s Instant Oatmeal. Or that special person who has no clue how to use a microwave.

I pondered what to write on this blog for the longest, actually for more than 6 months.... My intention is to cover all of the hot spots around the Washington, DC area. From Ustreet to Largo, Alexandria to Gallery Place, Adams Morgan to Tysons corner we are everywhere you are, and every where you would like us to be. With the frenzy of all the new opening and closings going on and the rapid revitalization going on in DC the changes maybe hard to keep up with, but that is what we are here for. So whether you’re a tourist to be, One of those lovely folks down on capitol hill sporting the Scarlett red badges as a piss poor attempt at a get out of metro free card, or a lifelong Washingtonian as myself I hope you get the most out of this site. So Stand on the right side of the escalator, walk to down the right, have your smarttrips ready and out, cause FABOO is gonna be a bumpier ride then the Red line.
