Today, my mom, Ms. Toni, and I attended the Washington Commanders vs. Tennessee Titans football game! A huge thank you to Mr. Martin for providing us with tickets and sideline passes for the pre-game warm-ups. It was an unforgettable experience! I had the chance to take photos with Tiki Barber and Doug Williams and got…

This morning my mom and I took a little trip to the United States Botanic Garden. It is currently Fall, a great season to visit; only second to spring in my opinion. We were able to walk through the whole indoor and outdoor of the garden in about an hour and a half. Access is…

Today, I spent Thanksgiving at my cousin Anji’s house! I brought along an apple pie, sweet potato pie, blueberry pie, cornbread, and cranberry sauce, while the rest of the delicious food was prepared by cousin Anji with help from my mom.

Today, I took the metro to College Park Station and met my mom and her friend, Ms. Toni. After we met up we went to the Maryland vs. Iowa football game. It was a great game and just like last time our seats were at the 50 yard line! But we left at halftime because…

Today, my mom and I visited Ben’s Chili Bowl for the first time. A spot I discovered on TikTok. We split a chili dog and some chili cheese fries, and for dessert, I got a banana pudding while my mom opted for a slice of pink cake. We arrived right as they opened, deciding to…

After visiting Tatiana’s Pizza on Wednesday, I decided to return for another slice of their carrot cake. I skipped the pizza since I’d be eating at work later, but I had room for a sweet treat. After enjoying the carrot cake, I found myself craving a crepe. I asked the bakery next door if they…

After school today, I visited Tatiana’s Pizza, a restaurant I discovered on social media that is known for its jumbo slices at an affordable price ($6.59). I took the Red Line Metro directly from UDC to Dupont Circle, where I treated myself to a slice of cheese pizza and a slice of carrot cake. Unfortunately,…
