Thanks to all who’ve been emailing and messaging us updates about the old Uprising Muffin space.

“Broccoli Bar is a place to gather.
A place to share ideas. To inspire change.
For those interested in not just change, but in crafting that change.
A place to eat. A place to drink. A place to think.
Broccoli Bar is no one thing. It’s not for any one people. Not for the like minded or the short sighted. It’s not a defined space, because you haven’t defined it yet.
Broccoli Bar is a Broccoli City and &pizza joint.”

From Broccoli Bar:

Opening to the public 10/26, Broccoli Bar is a joint &pizza/Broccoli City collaborative bar venue in Shaw that will serve as a gathering place to bring people together over ideas, cocktails, good music and pizza.

2444 Wisconsin Avenue, NW Mario’s Trattoria opened in the former Surfside space in Glover Park in 2022. Just noticed the sad sign in the window:

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
