DC Blogs Noted



DC’s Fish Market Scene
What I Cook
There are good alternatives to DC’s grocery stores, including the Eastern Market and the Maine Avenue fish market. That’s where this writer shopped for a party and he tells the story about his experience. He finishes the post with a crab recipe. An excerpt from the fish market:

He had five large steamer machines running, and all he did all day was dust bushels of crabs with bay seasoning, and hoist them into and out of these humongous steamers (each of which could hold two bushels). On Sunday, with the temperature in the 90's, this guy was working with steam for a 14-hour shift. WOW. Huge props to the crab steamer dude for enduring weekend after weekend. His "beer fund" box was rightfully full of bills.

I'm a member of the WHAT? That’s what DC’s resident Aussie blogger wrote after receiving a Republican Party membership card in the mail. And is she ever steamed: You DC Republican Party morons are dishonest creeps and have no right to do what you did …

Ever wonder
what others on the Metro are thinking? Not much is missed by Scotus at DC Universe, a capable observer, who is assaulted on all levels by a cast of characters that includes the smelly homeless guy and the woman groper.

There’s one
big advantage to living in DC and adapting to its continual siren noise generated by the chronic police emergency and self-important motorcades. And Mr. Anthrope discovered that advantage in London.

Federal budget cuts will soon end a program that
helps disadvantaged Latino students get into college. In a note, Alejandra of sent from my dell desktop, said: We're are trying to mobilize the media and inform the public in order to try to get these cuts reversed and to hopefully attract corporate funding so that we can keep these centers open. As of now, they are all slated to close at the end of the month unless they can find the funding they need. We're also trying to protect the jobs of the counselors that selflessly work in these centers

This post explores whether it’s possible to
keep a personal secret. A circle has too much symmetry writes: The idea that someone could keep a personal secret, a personal fear, desire, love interest, want; to themselves just amazes me. I am not wired that way and I don’t think most people are.




Friday is the day for the best party in town Kathryn and DC Cookie are sponsoring.


Site Note: Back Monday. Enjoy the weekend.
