Vinoteca on 11th St NW DC...right off of U St. I chose this as my new restaurant for the month of January, and it was great! My friend Chad and I ate here for Restaurant Week. With it, we got an amuse bouche, soup/salad, entree, meat and cheese plate (I ate the cheese, Chad ate the meat), AND a dessert (I ate my chocolate truffles, and finished off Chad's apple tart...whoops?). And of course, we drank vino. They have half price Spanish wines on Sunday, accompanied by a live Flamenco dancer! And wine classes on Tuesdays. I took a picture of the beautiful chalk board they designed on the wall so that I would remember this.
I also signed up for the marathon. OH HEY! I've been running semi-diligently...trying to keep on track. Using my Runner's log to keep track of how far I'm running.
And Dorothy's sister donated a plant to our apartment. I have yet to name it, but I have watered it. I will keep it alive. I will keep the faith alive.
The military showers are going well...I rinse, shampoo, condition, then turn the water of to lather up. The second spurt of hot water is so great! It makes it worth it to turn off the water just to have that feeling of the second spurt.
Now, I must go watch the Office.
