Best Crab Cakes in DC


I have been on vacation this month and also moved house - thus my quiet blog. Now I'm back! Thank you for reading and commenting while I was gone.

Ken, a reader, made the following comment in one of my posts:
"If you were to recommend 3 restaurants in the district, which would they be? and who do you think has the best crab cakes in the city?"

Thank you Ken for the question!

Ads Are Easy To Make

I had another client ask me to make them an ad at 400X300 instead of the banner at 700X100. I helped them with this new size and created a new ad button.

White and Nerdy



While working for Second Chance Employment Services I had a client that requested a banner advertisement of our upcoming Gala: Last Kiss of Summer for their website. I created a new banner for them over this Memorial Day weekend. I am having a White and Nerdy moment right now, thus the music video by Weird Al Yankovic ?!

My Client: Second Chance

I have also created a blog specifically for a client that I love and support, Second Chance Employment Services! I had attend the annual Gala for Second Chance every year. Here I am in this picture at last year's event. I'm so pleased to help with this non-profit organization that I know is effective in finding at-risk women real employment to give them sustainable financial independance. God bless you Ludy Green for founding Second Chance and for making a difference in so many women's lives!!

Help for Negative Blogger

I posted this on another forum for suggestions for the "terrorist" blogger that showed up on my last posting. I thought you would like to see the various range of comments and also get a chance to make your own suggestions, thoughts, and ideas on how you handle a negative blogger or how you would have handled this negative blogger:

Hi Everyone -

Today was a coordinated day for bloggers to run "One Day Silence Blog" which I did for all my blogs. I recieved a very negative blog in opposition to proving sympathy for the Victims of Virgina Tech. How do you think this should be handled? Is anyone interested in addressing the negative comment on my blog with a positive comment?

My blog address: http://ilovedcblog.blogspot.com/

Thank you,

Stephanie

One Day Blog Silence


A coordinated One Day Blog of Silence is scheduled to be held today on April 30, 2007 in honor of the victims of Virginia Tech. Instead of leaving comments, please post this picture on your blog to uphold the silence and solemn remembrance. Please use this day to meditate and pray for the victims, families, and effected area surrounding the horrible incident that took place at Virginia Tech earlier this week. Thank you.

Golfing at Hanes Point

American University offers a Golf Class to students. Last week our teacher Bill took us to Haines Point or East Potomac Blue Golf Course in Washington, DC to play a few holes. It was a lot of fun even with the heat.






Afterwards a group of us went to the driving range to hit balls. The class was a lot of fun and it was good to learn something new and useful in college. What are some of your favorite college classes?
