Cupcake Cam Launches Contest To Win Free D.C. Pastries
March 30, 2016 by
A new web cam launched today that isn't for the birds. In a delectable deal, cupcake connoisseurs can watch Georgetown Cupcake employees package their beloved pastries for a chance to win a dozen.
The cupcakery's contest began this morning. Since then, employees have been sporadically planting easter eggs in the shop's to-go boxes. If a person spots an egg, the company tells them to take a screenshot and post it to social media using the tags #CupcakeCam and #Contest.
The contest ends tomorrow at 9 p.m. TLC, the network that runs the show DC Cupcake, will pick the winner.

Cherry Blossoms Are Here! But The Tidal Basin is Too Crowded
March 24, 2016 by
Want to view the the Cherry Blossoms but want to beat the crowd's at the Tidal Basin try these spots that have the Cherry Blossom's but less the crowd.
The National Arboretum -Visitors can explore 76 varieties of cherry trees in the research and display collections. Pack your bike and a picnic, as this 446-acre park is great for both.
Meadowlark Botanical Gardens- This Northern Virginia park is full of walking trails, lakes, and more than 20 varieties of cherry trees. The trees in this 95-acre park bloom a little later than those at the Tidal Basin.
Anacostia Park- Don’t forget there are cherry trees blooming along the Anacostia River, too. Head to Anacostia Park where you’ll find 1,200 acres spanning the river shoreline and dozens of cherry trees. There are trails, boat launches, picnic areas, a swimming pool, and Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens to keep you busy.
Coffy Café: A Neighborhood Coffee Shop
March 22, 2016 by
Get turned on to a tasty place with a 60’s vibe at Coffy Café. Located on 14th Street just off Park Road, Coffy Café is a coffee shop and so much more. It’s hard not to like the ambiance, with furniture right out of the 1960’s. It’s really cool and really comfortable! Get a good cup of coffee or tea and a tasty crepe for breakfast, lunch or dessert. The place is decorated to promote conversation, so it’s a perfect spot to just hang out with friends. But that’s not all – Coffy Café is also the place to go for interesting events like open mic poetry, local art shows and community get togethers.

Arts in Your Community
March 10, 2016 by
Thanks to the folks at WHUT.org I have some really cool art info to share with you.
The DC Metro Area — the place for politics, policy, and power. Yet , also the place for the Strathmore, Artomatic, Twins Jazz Club, Joe’s Movement Emporium and Synetic Theatre.
Did you know our area has 200 or more theatre performances on any given night? Policy and politics may be a local mainstay, but so is the kind of cultural fare you find at places like Wolf Trap, Atlas Theatre, the Phillips Collection, and the Bethesda Blues & Jazz club. WHUT’s new show is about discovering and showcasing all the great things to do in the DMV beyond politics. It’s Art in your community. It’s Artico on WHUT.
