    Who wants to do another meet up? It's been a while!

    I think after the Fall Meet up, there was some discussion of including our SOs the next time around. It'd be fun to do something a little more laid back and let the guys come along, IMO.

    Thoughts?

    Hmm.... I kind of forgot about this thread! Any more interest?

    After 30 of us back in July, it'd be kind of sad to only have 5 in March!

    Is Baltimore included in Greater DC?? LOL!! I'm originally from the DC area, and I'm a Baltimore transplant, so I still consider myself a DC person sometimes!!

    Me! I have missed the last two for one reason or another - this one is far enough in advance notice and I have no plans!

    @daydreamwanderer: I told Brooch that the next time we should try to have it posted on the blog - so more people would see it. Also, if we try to keep this towards the top of the boards then more people might see?

    Hey y'all! I'm down for this! It's better for me to do a weekend night like Friday, Saturday or Sunday as it's hard to get my work schedule wrapped around a weeknight, but I can try if it's what we decide :)

    I'm looking forward to this!

    I'd love to be in again-dim sum night in July was awesome.  And we all remember that I'm that girl. :)

    Friday or a weekend would work best between work/travel.  Maybe we could do a brunch?

    I like the idea of a Saturday or Sunday brunch! Probably Saturday so as not to contend with any of us who are church-goers, or the after-church brunch crowds (do we have those here in DC? I know the midwest where I grew up has them!)

    Anyone know of good brunch restuarants that take reservations?

    @daydreamwanderer: I would love brunch!! I think Caribbean Breeze in Arlington might take reservations but Im not positive

     @Lelise: where in Rockvile do you live? You can PM me if you want - I grew up in Olney and went to HS in Rockville!

    @PitBulLover: I would love brunch too!!  I bet some of the restaurants in Clarendon/Courthouse or Ballston would take a reservation.  I can call around if that would help!

    @daydreamwanderer: I think Saturday would be fine.  So many churches around here meet at odd days/times so I don't know if they have the same rush!  But I am from the midwest too and have fond memories of going out to eat after church on Sundays :)  Where are you from?  I'm from Northeastern Ohio...

    @pitbulllover  I could be wrong, but if memory serves-Caribbean breeze only does brunch on Sundays.  Which is a shame as their brunch with the cheap mimosas are awesome.

    Mmmmm mimosas. :D

    We don't need to rule out Sundays if that's when the good brunches are!

    Hey all! I'm just seeing this! I'm super glad that a meet up is in the works! The last one was uber tiny, and I know there's a lot more of us in this area!

    Our weekends are pretty booked between now and the wedding (early April), but I'll try my very best to make it! A little bee love right before the big day would go a long way!

    *so excited*
