Trader Joe's has their own brand that's pretty good and KLP. Whole Foods usually has KLP Yehuda.

yes this! most of my gay male friends met other gay men through a sport. A lot met through a queer religious community too.

Reply to Flight layover IAD and DCA...help! by Parking-Steak8032
Oh you're totally fine. 4 hours is a leisurely amount of time to get from DCA to IAD. International arrivals at IAD is super fast if you have global entry; if not, you might have to wait in a very long line but you will definitely be fine if you have a 5 hour layover. Even if you're the last to deplane and you wait in a long line, you'll probably clear passport control within two hours of when your plane touches down and have 3 hours to get from IAD to DCA.

Unless they're renting from a big commercial management company, but it sounds like they can't afford that.

If you have TSA Precheck you should be okay. If not, I wouldn't chance it. The security lines are shorter since the remodel but if you end up in line for more than about 10 min you'll be cutting it really close.

This would be the best idea if it weren't for the yellow line closures. The commute to SW on the blue/orange/silver is pretty long, although not terrible.

A couple years ago when I did the same the car behind me simply plowed right into me. The driver was on his phone not looking. Fortunately the pedestrian saw that he was going to hit me and didn't cross.

Reply to Recommendation for Family Law Attorney? by michaelindc
I would check out the Washingtonian's top lawyers list, it should have a section for family law and it usually has a description of the areas of practice of each lawyer. You might want to look for a lawyer who's attached to a firm that handles other civil matters, because this is going to be an unusual case that involves both tort and custody law, so you may want a firm that has experience in both.

Reply to Car-Having Etiquette by woodscomma_elle
I almost never use my car in town. Why are you driving places? Seems like a nightmare having to figure out parking when you could just walk or take metro. And I definitely wouldn't offer rides an hour out of my way unless it was a special situation, like the person was physically unable to use public transit or I hadn't seen them in months but they live far from metro and can't afford uber.

When I moved from Colorado 20 years ago, learning to tell directions without the mountains always being to my west was a real challenge! Welcome to DC!

They had a salmon carbonara that was so so so good for those of us who don't eat pork. I miss it! It was the perfect place for a work lunch or a group meetup, too, with the individual cards system.

Reply to Traveling with firearm by [deleted]
Why would you not just leave the firearm at your home? It doesn't seem safe or smart to bring it in your car to DC just to leave it in a parking garage, and it's very easy to get in trouble while trying to fly with one.
If you must leave it in your car for some reason, buy a gun safe and secure it in a locked trunk. If you drive some sort of hatchback or SUV where you can't conceal it in a trunk, don't do it. The last thing you need is for that gun to get stolen from your car and used in a crime.

Reply to Ideas for Dinner for a Teen with EoE? by rightupyourali
Fogo de chao or any meat-heavy restaurant would be good. Fogo de Chao is memorable but it is a chain with some locations in Ohio so it might not feel speicial. Old Ebbitt is really good at dealing with food allergies and special needs and it is a DC institution so that would be a good and special choice, but maybe a bit fancy for a teenager. Any steakhouse would probably be a good option. Farmers Fishers Bakers on the Georgetown waterfront is also good with allergies.
Another idea might be to take them to the seafood market at the Wharf and cook at home, if he eats fish? Or take them to a seafood restaurant, but I don't have a specific allergy-friendly recommendation for one.
