I'm driving the Metro Home

Finally, two days off from the constant "go, go, go" pace we have been keeping for the past five days. Friday was a slow day, but when we finally started going the whole group headed out to Ballston for drinks, The Switch and PF Changs to finish out the night. I can't count the number of times I have said I can't go out to eat anymore, and yet we just keep finding new places to try....

The Switch was a cute movie that definitely redeemed Jennifer Aniston after "The Bounty Hunter" freak accident...and the little boy, Thomas Robinson, was unbelievably amazing in his role. "Beady- eyed little man-boy, beady-eyed little man-boy, beady-eyed little man-boy looking at me" - it was just entertaining and feel-good.

Today, we headed to Baltimore to eat at Obrycki's, which has EXCELLENT crab cakes and was featured in the Discovery Channel's Man vs. Food - and for a good reason. Best crab cake I have ever had and I am thankful we traveled to the scarier side of town to experience this heavenly meal!


Then we headed off to a baseball game - the Texas Rangers were playing Baltimore and lost...so we headed out earlier. Best part of the game: the three little boys sitting behind us telling their dad all the reasons why they need to go to Fenway Park and sit on the Green Monster for a Red Sox game...my little Bostonian heart just went pitter-patter with pride.

Tomorrow we are off to the taping of this weeks Face the Nation with Bob Schieffer. Greg Mortenson, author of "Three Cups of Tea", will be on and it should be a very interesting discussion. Tune in and see if Bob mentions us - 10:30 EST on CBS.
