Hi! I just got back from DC!
We grabbed cupcakes at Georgetown Cupcake (Possibly better recognized as DC Cupcakes, as in the show on TLC). They were amazing! I'm not just saying that. They were fabulous! Perfect size and everything! I had chocolate banana (cake comes first, so chocolate cake, banana icing) and it was TO DIE FOR! Roommates had milk chocolate birthday and vanilla chocolate.
We grabbed Mexican on Capitol Hill, don't know the spot, but if you're interested... I will find out! It was delish!
Lunched at Ollie's Trolley, famous for their french fries aka "Olliefries." We all had some, some said too many spices. I loved them! We all also had burgers. They were totally amazing!
Got dressed up for dinner at Tabard Inn, that was a treat! I had the crab cake, it was ridiculously delicious. Wes had sirloin, I think? It was ridiculously delicious. Katie had pasta with ragu and goat meat, also ridiculously delicious. Allie had curried macadamia encrusted flounder, also ridiculously delicious. Matt had quail, lamb and rabbit sausage. I only tried the quail from his smorgasbord, and whadda ya know.. also ridiculously delicious. Today's lesson: Go eat at Tabard Inn.
Had pizza at Bugsy's in Old Alexandria. Pizza was great! We branched out and had deep dish, the "thin crust" appeared to be more like hand tossed. Not like the St. Louis thin crust we're used to.
Also, while you're in DC, get a hot dog off the street. Careful, they're hot!... as in spicy!

Eleven Eleven Mississippi, Red Robin (Yum!)
Happy Tuesday after Memorial Day Weekend!
Friday, Wes and I went back to Eleven Eleven Mississippi. This time I had their house dressing on my starter salad. It's so freakin' good! The house dressing is a strawberry vinigariette and it is awesome! For dinner I had the appetizer crab cakes. They, too, were delish! And then, gooey butter cake for dessert. Again, amazing. Wes had the bacon wrapped tenderloin, def better than my crab cakes. He always gets better food.
Have you been yet?
Mom, Dad, and I ate at Red Robin after golf yesterday. I was starving. So, naturally, I inhaled my food. I had the turkey burker and paid an extra 79 cents for sweet potato fries instead of steak fries. Best decision of the weekend. They were SO good! I even got a refill. Yes, sweet potato fries are bottomless, too! The turkey burger was superb. Turkey had great flavor and was perfectly cooked.

Palmer's Deli
Over the weekend, I was at Palmer's Deli again. This time I had the egg salad. It's not better than the chicken salad. I also had a chocolate chip cookie, it was amazing, as usual! Mom and Mary had Greek salads, they looked wonderful! But I didn't have any. And Emily had the egg salad, too. Mom and Mary had molasses cookies, they were drooling. Em had the biggest rice krispie treat you'll ever see. She giggled with delight as she ate it. I'm just kidding, but it's that good. Mom and Mary weren't drooling either. The rest of our food was home made! You gotta go to Mary Alice's house to get it. Sorry 'bout your luck.
Speaking of Chicken Salad, Mary Alice holds title to JESSICA'S FAVORITE CHICKEN SALAD. And I'm not just saying that because she's about to read this. I think I had three sandwiches!

TGI Fridays
HEY-OH!
Last night my bf took me to TGI Friday's for din-din. It was yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmyyy! We ordered a surf-n-turf with some type of meat for him, and salmon for me. We ordered one of those appetizer and entre things for $16.99 or $19.99. Know what I'm talkin' bout? We got fried green beans for our app, so delicious, the best out there! And with our meal came two sides. I got broccoli, Wes got steak fries. Only downside, Wes got exactly six steak fries, and I got a whole forest of broccoli. Otherwise, the meat was awesome! I very much like Friday's. I prefer their not-so-good-for-you food, like the Friday's Tostado Nachos. AMAZING!
This weekend I'm headed to Iowa. I can't wait to go to Palmer's, hopefully more than once. Oh, and see my family.

Have I Mentioned The Sports Attic?
The Sports Attic in Brentwood is amazing! Here's the address:
8212 Manchester Rd.
Saint Louis, MO 63144
I know Saturday nights are karaoke, I'm pretty sure Friday nights, too. Anyway, food is awesome! So far our favorites are the quesadilla, french fries, potato skins and buffalo chicken salad. Atmosphere is awesome, too. A local sports bar, kind of dive-y, but caters to all ages.
Go soon.

Cheesecake Factory, rambling
A little bit ago, Mom and I ate at Cheesecake Factory. We both got turkey burgers and sweet potato fries. It was DELISH!!
As filler, have you been to FroYo? Or something with a different name but similar to FroYo? Probably. What's your fav? I usually go for vanilla with fruits. Usually stick to bananas and strawberries.
And Olive Garden. Hello, best chain restaurant ever. I love the salad and bread sticks, of course. And usually I get the Fettuccine Alfredo, no chicken. But lately, I've opted for healthier entrees. Like the Apricot Chicken. I prefer Fettuccine Alfredo.
We bought some turkey hot dogs from Dierberg's over the weekend. They're amazing! I wish I could remember the brand!

Jason's Deli, Stadium Food, and Cicero's.
Mom and I went to Jason's Deli when we were in Iowa a couple of month's ago. I had their chicken salad. It was awesome. But, when we were back a week ago (in the Chesterfield Valley), we ordered Caesar Salads, with chicken. The chicken was totally awesome! I didn't eat much dressing, but would have liked to, because it was delicious, as well.
And, in honor of Opening Days everywhere, I thought I'd chat about Stadium food, the REAL reason I go to baseball games. I'm just kidding, St. Louis.
I was lucky enough to attend Opening Day with my wonderful bf, and sat next to some pretty fun dudes. Rich, Matt and Chris? I dubbed them LFO, because of Rich.. I don't remember the names of all LFO band mates, and clearly, I don't remember the names of the cool guys I sat next to at the game.. except for Rich. ANYWAY, Rich was all about trying the new food. The only one I witnessed was the Brat-zel. As in, bratwurst wrapped in soft pretzel. He said it was pretty dece. I, however, do not like bratwurst. Gimme a pretzel-dog.
The most popular new item seems to be the Bacon Wrapped BBQ Dog. When Rich went to order, they were all out. And it was post 7th inning, which means no more booze, so Rich came back empty handed. Poor, Rich. I stick to the usuals.. Hot dog, nachos, french fries and bud light. Has anyone had stadium french fries? Ours are AMAZING!!
Here's the article about Busch Stadium's new stuff.

Saturday night, we went out to Cicero's in the loop, to see a friend's friend's band. I had Cicero's Chicken Club Salad. It was GREAT! The chicken was fabulous and the Ranch dressing was UNREAL! I will def be back to try more food!
