If you're in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of D.C., you can't beat Jyoti (scroll down) for great (and relatively cheap) Indian food. Their chana masala is the bees knees. L. and I went there Saturday to celebrate her current and future success as a writer, details about which she has sworn me to secrecy, but you can congratulate her anyway.

Meta: As you can see, I'm really just a snapshooter; sometimes my snapshots work, other times not. After only two weeks of posting daily photos, I can say that this project has had many benefits so far, but the best is that I'm already starting to look at the world a little differently. I'd like to say I always have one eye on the lookout for good shots, but that would be an exaggeration. However, I do keep my camera with me, and as close to hand as possible, much more of the time these days. I have no great ambition to become an accomplished photographer, but I do hope the practice will make even my snapshots a little more enjoyable to look at.
