It's finally March, which means it is just that much closer to Spring! February was a short month especially when you have each weekend filled to the brim with activities!!
Last weekend we celebrated a friend's Birthday by forcing ourselves out of our normal neighborhood bubble and tried dinner and drinks in a new part of town. For all of those who are not familiar with Baltimore it is quite the interesting place. You have your Big 3 neighborhoods (Federal Hill, Fell's Point and Canton) and then you have other smaller neighborhoods with character! We decided to visit Mt. Vernon home to America's first monument to George Washington! Mt. Vernon is known for its cultural district, filled with stretches of restaurants from all different backgrounds. We decided on Waterstone Bar and Grille which was extremely accommodating to our party of 15. They even gave us bottles of champagne for free along with a piece of cake and a $50 gift card to the birthday girl!! We then headed on to Mick O'Sheas, an Irish pub, where we danced to the live band and had wonderful drinks!
All in all it was really a wonderful weekend but two days of partying really leave a girl with some exhaustion. I can't remember how we got the strength to do the tailgaits and parties and bars without collapsing! Is this a sign that at 23 I am old??
This weekend will be TONS of fun. Friday BF and I are going on a wonderful date... that for once I am not planning anything (coming from a compulsive planner this has been a task). I will report back where we end up!
Saturday the Junior League of Baltimore will host KIDS IN THE KITCHEN! It is an initiative to get kids to live a healthier lifestyle, through eating right and exercising! I will be taking a group of inner city kids and showing them around to all the different stations. I acted as a Group leader last year and had a lot of fun and it really makes me feel happy to work with kids truly in my community not just raising money and handing it off. I have really enjoyed my time so far in the Junior League and am excited for the upcoming year!
