Saturday:
Teddy Roosevelt Island, complete with propaganda proportioned statue and huge fountain (left). Kayak to get there (middle). Cupcake down the hatch on GU's gorgeous Gothic quad (right).
For anyone who doesn't know Georgetown it's tawny DC, famous for window shopping, old city estates, and beautiful people watching--all surrounding Georgetown University the house of Preppydom. I confess, there are few better places on a sunny weekend day.
Overheard in the Georgetown Cupcake line, "My mom is making me come by the house and baby her and bring her meds after her jowl lift, she doesn't even have any bruising yet" (complete with upward pull on 19-year old skin). What an intoxicating concoction of schadenfreude and enticement to upward mobility; inter-class ambivalence never tasted so rich and creamy, or was that the mocca cupcake?
