My daughter and her boyfriend invited us to join them in a one-day visit to Washington, D.C. We visited the National Christmas tree and a special exhibit at the Smithsonian. Afterwards we took the subway to a delightful restaurant, Good Stuff Eatery. It’s located in the Capitol Hill area. They serve delicious fresh handmade burgers, fries and milkshakes. While very crowded at 1pm, it was worth the wait.

After leaving Good Stuff Eatery we were on the way to a subway stop and discovered a wonderful small store that has puzzles for adults and kids. The Labyrinth Games & Puzzles store offers a large selection of quality wood puzzles as well as some of the more traditional puzzles including those by Ravensburger. A very unique wood puzzle was displayed in a showcase. This puzzles attaches to the top of a wine bottle. To open the wine bottle, the puzzle must be solved. While it may be too late to purchase a wine bottle puzzle like this for the holidays, it is an item to consider as a gift throughout the year.
