This week’s What I Ate Wednesday (WIAW) would have been B-O-R-I-N-G without dinner and a special stop in Georgetown after work. I rarely go out to eat, but Tuesday’s trip celebrated the completion of my Washington Center portfolio and final exam for Criminal Law and Procedure. You know what the pink box means, right?

However, I must say that this was my favorite creation thus far. My BFF basically told me that my other pita pocket recipes were a little too … Continue reading »
