Georgetown Cupcake

I want this painting for my room - it's so colorful!

All the boxes that they wrap the cupcakes in

Kim and I decided that this week we need to take advantage of time after work to go explore the city instead of just going home. It's getting near the end of our time here and there is still SO much we want to see! That is honestly how much there is to do in DC, you can be here for two and a half months and still not see everything there is to see - it's pretty amazing!
So we began this new plan of ours on Monday and headed to Georgetown after work! It was an interesting place to go first because neither of us really knew how to get there since the Metro does not go straight to Georgetown. Luckily one of our roomates had been to Georgetown and told me which metro stop to get off at, and then from there I had to walk about a mile to meet Kim - who took a bus - at Georgetown cupcake!

We really wanted to go to Georgetown cupcake because they are making a TV show out of it that will be on TLC on fridays beginning in August - so it's pretty famous and a MUST DO in DC! Also what is better than a cupcake to cheer you up after a Monday at work!
I got a mint chocolate chip cupcake and Kim got two - one chocolate3 cupcake and one vanilla birthday cupcake. They were SO good and it was well worth the mile walk to get one!
After we were done eating cupcakes and taking lots of pictures like the good tourists we are, we began the hike back to the metro to go home. Luckily Monday was not too hot, though we did get rained on during our walk, but at this point if it is not in the high 90s I am quite happy. We also luckily ran into a Trader Joes on our walk back and were able to stop and get some groceries!

We returned home feeling very productive and felt much better than if we had just come home straight after work like normal!
