Henry's Sweet Retreat

Henry's Sweet Retreat

After dinner one night, we walked around downtown Bethesda and happened upon Henry's Sweet Retreat…read more Luckily, we saved room for dessert, and Henry's hit the spot. We got a blueberry pop tart, and some raspberry scones, along with a chocolate covered vanilla cupcake. Yummy! The only problem is that Henry's is not just a dessert bakery - the store may appear tiny on the outside, but it's huge on the inside. In addition to the bakery, they got all kinds of candy and other goodies for sale. I gotta stop back in another day and try all the other good stuff inside. Plus, you can tell from the Rick Astley-inspired sign outside, Henry's has a great sense of humor. This is exactly what small business brings to the neighborhood. Stop by and visit Henry's Sweet Retreat - you'll be glad you did!

Had dinner at a diner down the street. Looked up dessert near me and this place came up. NOT…read moredisappointed! We had brownies, sundaes, milkshake, cupcake and coffee. All of it was DELICIOUS! The small sundaes were huge! Kids could not finish them and at $7ish each hard to beat for the quality! I had an eggnog cupcake. I was not sure it would be good but whatever magic y'all put in it worked great together! The frosting was light and fluffy not too sweet not too bland. And the cake was moist, not crumbly, not heavy just perfect! Had a latte with soymilk because my belly does not care for milk in coffee. Local coffee company supplies the beans. They also have pretty much any kind of candy, pies, and sweets you might need and apparently they cater! Stop in you will not regret it...unless you do not like sweets and then I am sorry.

Silver Spring Civic Building - Phone scavenger hunt

Gala presenting a fanfare to the African culture with the backdrop of the building's ecofriendly & urban architectural design. In both areas I crossed paths with some of the Hospitality, A/V & Catering teams who were interactively busy & pleasant. GapBuster is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit & minority-founded educational organization dedicated to empowering the community through education benefiting their students/mentees in aiming to close the educational performance gap. The gala featured Keynote Speaker Kojo Yankah, former Member of the Ghana Parliament & founder of the African University College of Communications. Other special guets included Pat Lawson-Muse of NBC News 4, Congressman Jamie Raskin & Montgomery County Council At-Large Candidate Hoan Dang. The notable guest of the evening in which I had the esteemed honor in meeting, was King Peggy (Nana Amuah-Afenyi VI - born Peggielene Bartels), the first woman King & Reigning Chief of Tantum in Ghana. I didn't venture around the entire space, however on my way out I quickly spanned the Betty Mae Kramer Gallery (former First Lady of MoCo) that supports the arts & humanities. The portico to the plaza is a popular space for concerts, famer's market, festivals, live entertainment...I saw light advertisement for the upcoming seasonal ice skating rink & annual Silver Spring Jazz Festival which is held in front of the building. There's a parking garage across the street on Ellsworth Drive if you can't find street parking. I saw many people parking in the Whole Foods parking lot...not suggesting, just to note. From the Silver Spring Metro Rail Station - Red Line, it's a very casual 15 minute walk.

Not only did they make me feel comfortable and excited with their presence but Kia also helped with our timeline in a way that made everything go extremely smoothly. When him Conor and I. Had a meeting couple weeks before the wedding. We were struggling with the timeline of everything and how we're going to incorporate the Persian ceremony with American ceremony and Kia was able to explain how it will be done so effortlessly. As for the actual music, we sent a couple ideas what we wanted the night to be like in Kia couldn't be more perfect in his effortless djing and MCing. And Farzan was a tremendous add, I am so happy We have also had him to compliment Kia. Everyone we spoke to after the wedding could not stop raving about both of them. Also both of their extremely positive attitudes was a cherry on top- they were truly a huge part of the night and couldn't have gone as smooth as it did without them. I need Kia to make a playlist on everything he did because OBSESSED. My maid of honor getting married next year also using Kia also said she is now soooo excited to use you guys!

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel - White Glove Delivery & set-up of my new "The Ritz-Carlton Bed," available at The Ritz-Carlton Shops

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel

$$$$

I absolutely adore "The Ritz-Carlton Resorts." However, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic (coupled…read morewith our family's "high-risk status"), it's now been nearly twenty-nine (29) months since we have traveled, stayed at, or even dined in any hotels or restaurants...but who's counting? What do you do if you're missing "The Ritz-Carlton Resort," but a much-needed getaway isn't in the cards for you anytime soon? Just create your very own getaway by bringing luxury home! While you may not be able to re-create every single aspect of staying in a 5-star luxury resort at home, thanks to "The Ritz-Carlton Shops" (online), you can now actually re-live some aspects of your "Ritz-Carlton Resort" experience...safely at home! As part of "bringing luxury home," I decided to renovate my entire house during this ongoing pandemic. In addition to the traditional renovations still underway, I've been incorporating various aspects of some of my favourite 5-star resorts into my home --- making it "a nice getaway when you just can't get away." This is (in part) thanks to "The Ritz-Carlton Shops." A few of my favourite items available from "The Ritz-Carlton Shops" include: * The Ritz-Carlton Bed!!!!! As part of my bedrooms' renovations, I recently purchased "The Ritz-Carlton Beds." Customized & made exclusively for "The Ritz-Carlton Resorts" & guests, the "The Ritz-Carlton Bed" mattress you purchase will be further customized depending on the location of your Resort stay & your preference. Although each "Ritz-Carlton Resort" location may use a different mattress, the Resorts where I enjoyed my sleep experience the most all used the same mattress, so the selection was easy. Combining the exclusive custom mattresses along with the available exclusive Ritz-Carlton bedding, feathertops, duvets, pillows, & linens, the at-home luxury experience in my newly renovated bedrooms could make even "The Ritz-Carlton Resorts" blush! If you miss the uncompromising luxury experienced by sleeping in the amazing beds & bedding that "The Ritz-Carlton Resorts" are known for, definitely check out "The Ritz-Carlton Bed"! Tip: Check the website frequently...prices do fluctuate! Mattress/Box Spring Price Range: $2,300 - $4,000 (approx) Bedding Set Price Range: $4,190 - $6,100 (approx) Be sure to request "White Glove Delivery Service" (additional fee). *Furnishings: Lighting, decorative pillows, accessories, throws, & more are available. Unfortunately, I was not a huge fan, so I ended up opting for different vendors & styles. * Bath & Spa: To help enhance your at-home spa experience, "The Ritz-Carlton Shops" offers their best selling healing yoga balm, "The Ritz-Carlton Resorts" full-sized signature liquid hand soaps & body lotions with luxurious jasmine, ylang-ylang, & bergamot, bubble bath, & massage oils & skin refreshers. Also offered: bath rugs, towels, sheets, & of course their signature cuddly fluffy "The Ritz-Carlton Resort" robes & slippers --- perfect for an indulgent bath & spa experience at home. 15.8 oz "The Ritz-Carlton" Bubble Bath: $50 1.8 oz Healing Yoga Balm: $60 * Fragrances: If you've had the pleasure of enjoying a "The Ritz-Carlton Resort" location, you will always remember its signature scent. Thanks to "The Ritz-Carlton Shops," you can now purchase the various Resort locations' signature scents online to awaken your senses as you enhance your luxury experience at home. Candles, reed diffusers, fragrance mists, & home & room diffusers are available. Unfortunately, certain fragrances (e.g., "Waterfall") are very limited & are only available as candles, but if you enjoy creating a sumptuous ambience in your bedrooms, bathrooms, & throughout your home, you will absolutely love the candles. "The beauty of fragrance is that it speaks to your heart & hopefully someone else's" - Elizabeth Taylor. 9 oz Candles: $79 Home Diffuser Sets: $169 Reed Diffusers: $98 * Gifts: Last but not least, gifts! Besides totes, towels, & the like, "The Ritz-Carlton Shops" offers various assortments of caviar & chocolates. Presented in a jewelry-style box, I received a gift from of their hand-crafted premium chocolates. Almost too pretty to eat, but definitely delicious & indulgent! Pros: A safe & easy way to enjoy a variety of "Ritz-Carlton" home furnishings, gifts, & just about anything to help re-create a luxury experience at home. Most items available online. Cons: Surprisingly, (& quite disappointing), a few customer service representatives were a bit surly & less than pleasant on the telephone. Overall: "The Ritz-Carlton Shops" are a great way to "bring luxury home!"

I am a B&B fanatic, and this was literally the best B&B you can imagine. First of all, the warm and…read morefriendly proprietor Sandy is so welcoming and knowledgeable. The Inn itself is clean, beautiful, and cozy. The wisteria room was just gorgeous, with a huge bathroom and jacuzzi tub. The bathroom floors were stone tiled, and gorgeous. The bed was firm but with enough give and decorated impeccably. The breakfasts included herbed scrambled eggs, fresh scones, cinnamon rolls, fruit salad, bagels/english muffins, and perfect hot coffee. I was offered snacks, tea, or wine when I returned from a long day - and given advice on travel and food. Yes, from downtown it is a bus ride or $8 cab ride - but for such a reasonable price and quiet neighborhood it is worth every penny. If you want to make a vacation out of a business trip, or have a romantic weekend in D.C., this is the perfect place. To see 200+ amazing reviews of this place, see Trip Advisor

When your family is this big, they learn to roll with the punches of communal living. There is always some struggle in big gatherings and this house has met all our demands pretty easily. Did you want a huge kitchen that seems like it fell out of Downton Abbey? Done. A homey carriage house with a bidet for my kids to have a brand new giggling experience? Perfecto! Solid wifi? Yep! Plastic wine goblets for breakfast orange juice for same children? Check! Many rooms with chairs and couches for a hundred moments to connect and find out how we've weathered another year? Thankfully yes! Family games, on the bookshelf, and a painting of a family member who has the head of a dog, or is it the family dog dressed up for his portrait? We are still arguing about this, especially as there is a Pokémon Go stop right next door and the kids spent a lot of time in there. Also hidden in the neighborhood is a playground that has two 3-story slides. This was a goldmine for my 6/28 relatives, and we can't wait to come back.
