Copycats

Whenever the President visits a local establishment, it's usually mentioned in the press -- so we have a good idea where he's eaten. So far we've been to two of the places he's visited recently.

A couple weeks ago we went the Ray's Hell-Burger in Arlington. Even at 5:30 pm on a Saturday it was quite busy. The burgers are tasty, but *really* big, so I'm not sure we'll be going back too soon.

Friday night we visited the Dairy Godmother in Alexandria. The line was quite long, so Geek Girl and I took a little walk around the neighborhood. We found the cheese shop Cheestique which I've been wanting to visit. However, as soon as we were inside, Geek Girl insisted on leaving because the stinky cheese smell was a little too much for her. Hmmmm.... five more weeks until she's back in school. Anyways, but the time we got back to the shop, Daddy Geek had a chocolate custard for Geek Girl and we shared a very good peach sorbet.

I'm not sure we'll be able to go to all the places that our fearless leader visits, but we can visit the cheap eats.
