DC is so full of fun things to do and here is a roundup of ideas to whoop it up in the next few
weeks.

SCHOOLS OUT & THE KIDS WILL BE JUMPING
OFF THE WALL - Go to SKYZONE in
Columbia, MD. Trampoline, foam pit to dive into, dodge ball, and
basket ball. Gotta love the socks! Call ahead to reserve your time. http://www.skyzone.com/
GO SEE SOME ART - Richard Estes’ Realism – These paintings look like real photos. The kids love it. 1st floor West, American Art Museum 8th and F Streets, N.W., thru February 8, 2015
EAT - WASHINGTON RESTAURANT WEEK more info - Washington, DC Restaurant Week
January 19-25, 2015 My pick is also my favorite restaurant in DC - Rasika, West End. A giant silver hand sculpture welcomes you, offering you vitality and positivity. The décor is beautiful, and food is beyond delish. Have the crispy spinach, the chili naan and any vindaloo they offer. More than 200 of DC’s finest restaurants will be offering 3-course lunches for $20.14 and 3-course dinners for $35.14 for this gourmet event. (More on hand gestures in the yoga practice at http://www.eyogaforbeginners.com/hand-mudra-meanings-explanations-and-benefits/

LAUGH - Go see Tom Papa at the DC Improv. http://www.dcimprov.com/home/tom-papa.html 20 years as a standup, movie credits, and he was personally chosen by Jerry Seinfeld to host the NBC series "The Marriage Ref."
SUPERBOWL Sunday 2/1 - If you are going out to watch the game in DC, the best places are Public Bar in Dupont, Sports
Tavern in Penn Quarter, and The Greene Turtle Gallery Place. If you're staying in to watch the game with family and friends, try your hand at these little appetizers. Use a 00 decorating icing tip to get a small piping of the mustard.
Go to the theater - Gigi at the Kennedy Center. Ok, my daughter is named Gigi so we are definitely going. It's a great musical based on the book by Colette. Starring Vanessa Hudgens, Eric Schaeffer directs a world premiere
production of Lerner and Loewe's musical comedy. It's a women's empowerment story as Gigi stands for herself during turn-of-the-century Paris, even though she was guided to be something else. http://www.kennedy-center.org/events/?event=TPTSD
More ideas coming soon...
