My favorite place to get breakfast in DC, Heller's Bakery
Perhaps the look you give when someone is wearing the same outfit as you.. 
City Sports in all her glory.
If you didn't know, Ali's a pimp. That's her macking SIX guys. Get it.
If I had to write a book about staying at Ali's, it would be called "Our Life On The Porch. Getting Nothing Done."
Ali has been kind enough to let me stay at her house in the DC neighborhood, Mt. Pleasant, where she lives with six other people. It has been so much fun to be around so many people, and things are always an adventure with Ali (I mean, it always has been, we've been best friends for 10 years!!) Well, the above pics were the best of the weekend. (From top) Heller's Bakery two blocks from Ali's, you can't go wrong here from there epic breakfast sandwiches to amazing doughnuts, it's a must visit DC neighborhood hot spot. But be fair warned, on a Saturday morning, the line can be out the door, but it's worth the wait!
Next up, City Sports. Second picture down giving Ali the stink eye, and third down with her name sake shirt on, in full glory. This girl, were to begin... A must have at any get together. The first time I met City Sports was at one of Ali's famous house parties, I didn't know anyone or their names, but when I saw this girl emerge from the depths of the fog machine rocking out without a care, I asked Ali- "Who the fuck is 'City Sports'?!" Thus, the nickname and friendship began. This girl is a riot, she did bring five outfits to Ali's Friday night, one of which happened to be exactly what Ali was wearing. Awesome. But as the night progressed, and a few blueberry vodkas in, City Sports was at full force, and, lucky I was able to snap a picture and hopefully capture some of the magic: thigh high socks, City Sports shirt, and Guitar Hero guitar in hand. Oohh the reasons I love this girl... Like I said, never a dull night at Ali's.
As seen from the bottom two pictures, Ali's house has a great porch, and if you know about DC, it's all about the row houses. As you can see in the pictures, when on a DC porch, you can see all the way down the block, it's a beautiful thing, and on a hot summer night, the place to be. So again, a special thank you to Ali and her house full of characters for sharing their home with me, always an adventure! :)
