It is said there is a time for every purpose. And so there is. The time for our Arlington Library Connection Hub just steps from our apartment complex in our Underground Crystal City 11-block basement is rapidly winding down. We’ve gotten spoiled picking up and dropping off our books there. #crystalcity

I think my waitress here and I may have concocted a burger that could become a huge best seller, especially in the Philadelphia area. I couldn’t make up my mind between the Philly steak burger and the pretzel burger. So we decided to place the Philly burger on a pretzel roll. Philly steak and soft pretzel — it doesn’t get more Philly than that.

Now some might consider $35 (without tip) excessive for lunch. But every so often you have to splurge. The fried chicken here at this fancy Pennsylvania Avenue eatery is rated among the best in DC. And it it is. Plus, I could keep an eye on the Trump hotel while I lunched.

Here’s something that’s just a bit less rare than encountering an honest Trump. An empty Metro station at Archives/Gallery Place and not a person stirring above on Pennsylvania Avenue. Of course, it was a wet, cold, dreary December 1st Sunday at 8 am

It was a unique lunch for me today. It wasn’t the meal - cheeseburger and French fries - that was unique, it was where I ate. For the 1st time in the 9 years we have lived in DC, I ate in our car. Of course, the location here is a last-of-it’s kind, too. I’ll be writing about Weenie Beenie in my blog - Write on With Dave Price - next week. The Weenie Beenie story involves professional pool, the movie The Color of Money, the iconic DC half-smoke, and rocker Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters. By the way, the cheeseburger was good and the fries outstanding, too.

It was Singapore theme for me here in DC. First, one of the 3 private tours I conducted at the Newseum involved these young woman from a high school in Singapore. Inspired by the group, I decided to have one of my Asian favorites for lunch — spicy hot Singapore street noodles from @yongkangstreet in Pentagon City.
