Spent today wandering Old Town Alexandria with Nana! Stopped in for a lunch at La Madeline, where I weaseled a smile out of her. (It wasn’t difficult.)
At Nana’s
The wedding was gorgeous and SO MUCH FUN! Logan’s on his way home and I’m in Virginia at my Nana’s apartment. Love it here.
Now we’re truly in Delmarva.
Oh yeah. I’d like a masterclass in how to break these bad boys down, though! We also got some oysters from Virginia and Long Island. And now I’m stuffed and we’re running late!
Yay Americana!
We’ve stumbled into a town Halloween parade! Yay America!

You’d think that after 15 months of living exclusively out of our backpacks (detailed fairly extensively over at the old blog, boots in the oven), packing…
Jimmy John’s
all right! I’m putting this “super fast delivery” to the test with a turkey sammich. It’s 12.42 and I’m just pressed the “order” button. dun dun… dun dun… dundundundundun 12.53 and nothing?! These commercials are MISLEADING. 12.56 OMG I am holding a sandwich, a pickle, and something called Thinny Chips. Thank you, JJ! Low blood…
