TE-DC Christmas lunch/brunch in Frederick?
To disable ads, please log-in.
Is anyone up for meeting some weekend for lunch and Christmas shopping in Frederick? I don't know anything about it, so Kalidurga or Zen would have to guide us on where to go, but I remember a nice historic section with good restaurants and fun shops from a previous visit.
Any weekend day up to Christmas is fine with me...my calendar is wide open, because I have no life.

Frederick is a hike for me, and yes, I readily admit to being a big baby who hates driving outside the beltway.
That said, I would love to attend and meet everyone. If my schedule permits, I'll try to make it.

It strikes me as odd when people say this.

LOL, my world travels were when I was younger and they were required for work. My daily commute to Dulles is misery enough, so I am loathe to get in the car on weekends! Originally Posted by Zen

I start to hyperventilate when I need to cross the river into NoVA!
Frederick? Sure! When? Where?
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

Frederick??? Maybe we can get some PA folks in!
Okay, as long as I don't have to cross the river, I guess!
I can't make the weekend of the 5th, but the other weekends should be open.

I was actually out and about on this crappy day, working my way down my Christmas gift list up in, of all places, Frederick. Inventory's not until the end of January, but I am working every Saturday from now until the end of December. Would a Sunday work for everyone?
There are definitely some good restaurants in Frederick, but I don't know anything specifically about brunch options. I'll ask over at the FrederickMarylandOnline forum."How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

Maybe you can drive partway or take the metro and carpool with the Montgomery County contingent. Hate to see you have a wreck because you start hyperventilating on 270... Originally Posted by Velobambina

OK, so our options are December 7 and 14. I'd prefer the 14th. Does that work for everyone?

I can do either the 7th or 14th.

I can probably do either but the 7th might be a little bit better (no kids).

We're gonna go to a strip club, get drunk, then get tattoos.
Best if the kids stayed home.
I'm going to a party on the 6th but I suppose I could do the 7th.
Better make that lunch instead of brunch.2008 Trek FX 7.2/Terry Cite X
