All American Fashion

20130420-222833.jpg

I could not be more in love with my new white Keds. And what could be more American than baseball, blue jeans, and spiffy white Keds anyways?

I personally think they are the perfect shoe for sporting events, concerts, and quick lunch dates. Sometimes I even pair them with casual summer dresses and skirts to make the outfit more youthful looking. They are über comfy and even more so if you slip in one of those Dr. Scholl rubber arch support pads.

The only draw back is dirt!! I wore mine to a concert when it started to pour, thus creating some icky mud. I can definitely still wash them and take a speck of bleach to the white canvas but be forewarned! If you are a messy soul like me, perhaps opt for navy or another bright color!

Go Fish DC

Shrimp and Mahi Mahi tacos

Earlier this week my mind was blown by an incredible lunch that came from a truck of all places.  Now Philadelphia is chalk full of food trucks, but the trend has yet to catch on quite as strong in DC so I was pleasantly surprised to stumble upon this local delight through Twitter.

The woman who runs Go Fish DC graduated from L'Academie de Cuisine and has put together quite the fare of lobster rolls, crab cakes, shrimp tacos, and daily soups.  The best part about her business is that it moves around the city and through the outlying suburbs of Montgomery County.

I highly recommend the Maryland Crab soup, and the Mahi Mahi tacos are great if you come very hungry.
