Spice of Life, Lee High Road, London SE13, originally uploaded by Kake Pugh.
“Dear PoP,
My coworker and I live up in your neck of the woods (MtP for me, CH for him) and love the variety of delicious food options in that area. We work, unfortunately, in Rosslyn, the black hole of dining in DC. There was only one restaurant in the hood that was even remotely worth while to eat at: Spice of Life. They have a delicious chicken veggie hummous pita sandwich that I think is darn tasty (also some really good soups). One day the door was closed and the lights were off. No sign. No explanation. Nothing. It’s been months and we’re waiting for something: the owners got back from vacation, there was a health code violation, it was sold. Something. I know this isn’t exactly your jurisdiction, but do you have any news? Any other PoP readers?”
I’ve heard there are some good places in Rosslyn. Sadly, I never went to this one. Anyone work out in Rossyln know what happened to this joint (located at 1401 Wilson Blvd)?

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
