Fun fact: I majored in textiles and apparel, and I even wrote a research paper about the history of U.S. clothing sizing systems in my junior year! ๐ I had one professor who always emphasized the importance of proper […]

I’m super excited to announce that I’m starting a “Local Eats” series on the blog! I’ll be featuring a different Northern VA/DMV restaurant in each post, including a mix of old favorites and new (or new-to-us) places. Note: Manuel and I are definitely not food critics and we probably don’t even qualify as foodies. We’re […]
