This group was created for the 20s-30s Northern Va woman who is new in town(or has been here for awhile) and wants to make new friends.

This is a group for those who want to explore all forms of food the DC area has to offer (restaurants, specialty stores, etc.), cook and bake for others, and meet new people in their 20s and early 30s who want to do the same.

Split the Bottle is for D.C. area wine lovers of all levels of sophistication, from Franzia aficionados to Cabernet collectors.  We primarily meet up to split bottles of wine over appetizers and meals at local restaurants. We split the bottle because: By sharing the bottle we also share the experience of drinking a particular wine.  This gives everyone the opportunity to practice describing what they're tasting.  For many, this is the most intimidating aspect of wine snobbery, so some may be mo …

There was an article in a recent Washingtonian that stated that married couples who had many couple friends reported having a …
