Hi all, I’m hoping to get some variety into my bar rotation, and have found myself developing a taste for “high end” nonalcoholic mocktails. Any suggestions inside the beltway?

Hi all,

I’ve been to many many games with my adult friends, but have a friend wanting to bring his 1.5 yr/old to tomorrow night’s game. Would that child need a ticket? Or is under 2 ok as a lap spectator? Can’t find any info on the team or Ticketmaster websites

Hi all,

I’m very familiar with the Sasha Petraske / Milk & Honey / Regarding Cocktails recipe for this classic:

The Bee’s Knees.

2oz / 60ml gin of choice.

1oz / 30ml fresh lemon juice.

0.75oz / 22.5ml rich honey syrup (3 parts honey to 1 part hot water).

Shake with ice and strain into chilled cocktail coupé.

Looking to play around with it a little bit.

What do you all like? I’ve read recipes with St-Germain, lavender honey, 2:1 honey syrup, lesser ratio of lemon juice, etc... quirky garnishes also appreciated. Thanks!

Well I’ve just beaten the heart with a20 Silent, which was the last character outstanding for me. Took a while because those sweet buffs never made it to iOS. All achievements were also obtained along the way.

So...... what comes next? Having always had another character, another ascension level, or another task in front of me, there’s just nothing now that the game is taunting me with. Which I suppose is fine!

I’m interested in hearing from some of you spire vets what you did once it was all over. Daily runs? Infinite? Seed exploring? Keep hammering away to improve at a20? Move on to another game?

My partner has a love of high end jewelry (Van Cleef and Arpels, Graff, Cartier, etc.). We both make good money and I recently got a higher-than expected bonus and I would love to surprise her but have no idea where and how to find shop for these items. Been to a half dozen jewelry stores, both mall and private, and haven’t come close to finding something she would love.

Does anyone know of any shops, sellers, dealers, etc in Northern Virginia that would have good enough customer service for someone without much knowledge and a good selection of these high end brands?

In October, we finished building an outdoor firebox and chimney for our patio (from a FireRock kit). After letting the mortar cure for the recommended 30 days, we began using it. However, when we light fires, most of the smoke comes out of the front of the firebox. This can be on calm days, breezy days, super hot fires, small smoldering fires, day, night, etc. Outdoor air temps range from 40 to 60 right now.

The firebox front opening is large... 41” x 41” with a depth of 21” (elevated 20” off ground for wood storage). Smoke chamber is 32” in height and chimney another 48” on top of that. Circular flue diameter is 15”. Entire structure is 12’ tall.

More than 10 years ago, I used a google voice number for most things, forwarding calls to my Verizon number which I rarely used or gave out.

When signing up for services that asked for a mobile phone number (like Venmo), the google number would often get rejected as a VOIP number and not a mobile number. Fair enough.

Last December, I finally ported the number from Google Voice to Verizon. It is now a fully functional mobile number on the Verizon Wireless network, and is no longer a Google Voice or VOIP number.

However, most services still reject it as “not a real mobile number”. Whatever third party services they use to validate phone numbers still see this number as a VOIP number, even t

Just this week, in Northern Virginia, these purple-ish splotches appeared on our blend of tall fescue and Kentucky bluegrass. Looking closer, it looks like some sort of spore or fungus. Can anyone help with an ID?

Going into our second year with this Northern VIrginia lawn, and as it warms up these have started growing as well. Looks like grass but with wheat-like stalks. Thanks for any help!

Looking for a local shop in the DC metro area that will add names/numbers to blank team jerseys, add Stanley cup patches, things like that. Any help would be appreciated!

See title, will execute transfer on Tock and can pay finders fee through Paypal or Venmo. Thank you!

Recently our 40v Ryobi has struggled with the thicker grass in our yard, so we are looking to upgrade to something more powerful.

This sub seems to love Ego, so we looked at the 21" non self-propelled, but the voltage and wattage seem lower than other options like the snapper, kobalt, etc. We'd love to stay electric due to morning/night use in a tight neighborhood, and will be getting trimmer within the same brand to keep batteries swappable (and will have a couple so no worries about duration)

Yard is 2k sqft of a nutrient-aided mix of very thick Fescue / Kentucky Blue grasses with a few tight corners by the rain boxes, so open to all deck sizes, but power is paramount!

What do you all
