Chocolate Raspberry Shake

Posted on February 29, 2016 by Emily Wasserman

It has been a while since my last post–and so much has happened since then! I am still getting adjusted to life in D.C., and the pace of a 9-5 (well…7:30-4:30) job, but so far I’m really enjoying it. When … Continue reading →

Friday Night Dinner at Vegadeli

Posted on March 3, 2012 by Emily Wasserman

I don’t think I ever fully understood the power of the letters “TGIF” until I started working full-time. In high school and college, there were things like “Spring Break” and “Professional Development Day,” where teachers were held captive, and students … Continue reading →
