On that list - Georgetown Cupcake!

That just jumped right out at me. I just came from a trainer session. I'm trying to lose a few more pounds of body fat and I've really cleaned up my diet the last few weeks. But I've got a wicked sweet tooth...

You'll be in line all day if you go there. IMO, Baked N Wired (on Thomas Jefferson, also in Georgetown) has much better cupcakes (and other baked goods), great coffee, and much shorter lines! These are not vegan, though. You'd need to go to Sticky Fingers in Columbia Heights/U St. for that.

I saw the other day that a Sprinkles is also moving in in Georgetown. DC is having cupcake overload!

I'm not sure what my weekends are like, but if you're gonna be hanging out in FB or Gtown, I'm sure my bike and I will be around--will try to stop by!

FYI, we always have a herd of people and bikes taking over Dean & Deluca on the weekends in Georgetown. But the coffee isn't so great, IMO. Only vegan things I can think of there might be their veggie sushi.

I'm just seeing this thread now--I don't know how I missed it before!

I'd love to join you all too (and I'm thinking we should do a mini get-together at the race on the 18th. How many of us are doing that?), although I need to talk to my family and figure out our December weekend plans. Right now, though, the 19th is free as far as I know. And I'm fine with any kind of food, coffee, or cupcake.

And I look a lot like my avatar, only with frizzy hair. And my bike isn't yellow. And I'm quite a bit older. OK, I don't really look anything like my avatar.

Okay, time for some real planning. I count 15 people who have expressed interest. Even for a group half that size, we would need to make a reservation somewhere.

So, for lunch on Sunday, December 19, who is in?

Location will be someplace in DC.

**kmehrzad** · 12-02-2010, 03:05 PM

Count me in for lunch on Sunday, December 19th. Location to be determined.

**Veronica** · 12-02-2010, 06:10 PM

Put me down for 2 people.

**7rider** · 12-03-2010, 05:16 AM

Who else

**kmehrzad** · 12-03-2010, 05:29 AM

I'm in the mix.

**pfunk12** · 12-03-2010, 07:11 AM

That should work for me.

**Possegal** · 12-03-2010, 03:08 PM

Should work for me too. And any location is fine, well of course within reason. Not sure I could get the time off if you make this a 'destination brunch'.

**Blueberry** · 12-03-2010, 03:29 PM

Blueberry + 1 *maybe*

Working on travel/accommodations - but we usually visit the area around the holidays anyway

**withm** · 12-03-2010, 04:28 PM

If only I hadn't already made 4 trips to DC in the last 6 weeks. I'll have to pass on the 19th, but will be in DC for Christmas. if anyone wants to lunch on the 26th - I'm available. I'll bring my bike too if the weather looks good.

**aicabsolut** · 12-07-2010, 07:11 AM

I'm a "maybe." Turns out I have a lot of stuff going on that weekend.

**tulip** · 12-07-2010, 07:20 AM

No, I cannot make it, although it sounds like alot of fun. I hope another time, though. Perhaps a spring ride (after the cherry blossom crowds have passed!)

Have a great time!
