What Ya Been Up to Girl?

Hey guys, long time no see (for like the millionth time...sowwie). I hope the new year has been treating each and everyone of you well.  So far I cannot complain. I started my grad school classes (I still cannot believe it) and I have been kicking serious grad school butt. I just wanted to give y'all a little update on what's been going on with me because I am the world's worst blogger lol. Essentially I have been working, schooling, and brunching. Literally in that order. Lately, I have been feeling like I do not have anything interesting to share with the blogosphere so I haven't been blogging. Hopefully some inspiration swings my way (swing it over here shawty). 

Anywho...I leave you guys with a food pic from my recent brunch at Convivial. If you are in DC or visiting DC you MUST dine at  Convivial! The food! Nothing short of amazing.

Mel's Life: Brunch in the Burbs

On Sunday, I went to brunch at Del Frisco's Grille (not to be confused with the other Del Frisco's) at the new Pike & Rose development in North Bethesda with my friend Naddia (hey girl!). We each had the Chicken and Waffles (mehh) and decided to share the Grit Cakes (you have to try these!!!!) and a side of scrambled eggs. After brunch we headed over to the coffee bar at Summer House to indulge in cookies and coffee. I need to take a second to honor the chocolate chip cookies there....

So
So
So 
GOOD!

If you ever find yourself in North Bethesda be sure to check out the shops and restaurants at Pike & Rose. It's urban oasis in the sprawl of suburbia and you won't be disappointed. 

Food: Central - Sunday Brunch

Brunch is one of my favorite meals even before it became a millennial cliche (ugh). I recently tried Central's Sunday brunch and it was fantastic. For $25 you can choose three courses from a pre fixe menu and for an additional $10 you can enjoy bottomless drinks while you dine (woot woot mimosas!). I had the French Onion soup (eye rolling good), Fried Chicken and Waffles (I swear i'm not typical), and the Chocolate Mousse. If you're ever in DC on a Sunday and have a hankering for brunch stop by Central. You're welcome in advance.
