I just moved back to Georgetown for my sophomore year, which means 1) I’m really occupied with my classes and 2) posts are now in D.C. edition! Okay, enough chatter. Let’s get down to the midseason summer finale. P.S. I somehow managed to not see any spoilers, but did hear a lot of buzz about the craziness level of this episode. I’m […]

Seeing as I’m back in my neck of the South Florida woods, it’s time to start writing about my favorite eateries! One of my best friends from Georgetown is visiting me with her family, so we took them to South Beach.

It’s a really touristy spot […]
