With the moving truck scheduled (for exactly two weeks from now – gaaaaaah!), and with spring having finally arrived in Virginia, I am trying to spend as much time enjoying our adorable little Old Town as possible before we leave.
I am trying to get a lot of things done ahead of time NOW, so that our last weeks and days here are relaxed (ha!) and can be enjoyed. We took our pups for a looooong 4+ mile walk up the Mt. Vernon trail last night, and soaked up views of the Washington Monument and the Capitol building in the distance.
And while we walked and talked, we worked up quite an appetite! So we dropped the boys off at home, grabbed our things, and headed right back out the door to enjoy an evening out together in town.
Every single day I walk up Washington Street, and every time I pass Tattoria da Franco, I say “That is the cutest restaurant I’ve ever seen – I really want to go there!” And yet for some reason, until last night, we never did.
The outside is decorated in adorable Christmas lights that sparkle all year round, and in the warmer months the outdoor patio is always packed.
We opted for indoor seating last night since it was starting to get cool (and Casey has a weird aversion to outdoor eating, which kills me). From the minute we walked in the door, I loved everything about it. Soft romantic opera music playing, wonderful lighting – I knew we were in for a special meal.
We did NOT hold back, especially after our massive walk. We started by sharing a caprese salad (no tomatoes for me!)…
Along with a hearty side of gooey garlic bread. After Casey took a piece I asked him how it was. His answer – “exactly as good as it looks.”
And a gooey fried mozzarella marinara appetizer. This is the type of thing I would never normally order in a restaurant, unless I knew it was a really nice authentic Italian place, where everything would be very well done. It did not disappoint, and the capers on top were a brilliant garnish.
It was one of those perfect dinners where the courses just keep coming, and you have no concept of how much time has passed. We enjoyed each other’s company, talking about all that we’ve done in the past, all the we’re looking forward to in the future, and how much life continues to surprise us in the most wonderful of ways.
I told Casey this last night, and because it’s Friday and I’m happy, I will tell you guys today. I feel like I’m finally at this place in life where I wake up every single day feeling so happy and lucky that I have to wonder if it’s real.
Of course I have the worries, stresses, and day to day nuisances that we all have. But overall, I feel like right now my life is exactly where I hoped it would be. I have worked hard for what I have, but I also feel very very blessed for the opportunities and people in my life.
Can you tell my pregnancy emotions are running high this week? :) While I gushed to Casey over our first courses, the second courses were coming out of the kitchen. Casey got a delicious homemade gnocchi…
When we originally picked Italian for dinner, I was seriously craving some lasagna. I was sad (but not surprised) to find that Trattoria’s lasagna was meaty, so I opted for the next best thing. Handmade, fresh ravioli with slow-cooked marinara sauce. Perrrrfection.
Even with my shrinking stomach these days, I managed to eat every bite. And the true sign of well-done Italian food – I didn’t even feel that full or weighed-down afterward.
So much that when Casey asked to see the dessert menu, I felt like I should probably help him finish his spumoni ice cream. Mmmm.
With only two weeks left in town, I am determined to make it back to Trattoria at least one more time – I wish I hadn’t waited so long to try it in the first place! Our meal lasted over two hours, and reminded me of meals we would have on vacation – when the only thing you have to do all night is eat a good meal and enjoy each other’s conversation.
I have vacation on the brain this week, and am seriously itching to go on a babymoon (honeymoon before baby comes) this summer. Flights to Hawaii are veeeeery cheap from Seattle, and neither of us has ever been there…
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

You should DEFINITELY go to Hawaii!!! I encourage that choice! Your life will be very busy once baby gets there…! And gnocchi is my FAVOURITE food in the world – my nonna’s is best! :)

I went there on a date once :)
Random question – how come no tomatoes?
[Reply]
These look divine!
I love your attitude, “I feel like I’m finally at this place in life where I wake up every single day feeling so happy and lucky that I have to wonder if it’s real.”

Looks amazing! I will have to give it a try the next time I am in Alexandria.
[Reply]
I got tears in my eyes when you spoke about reaching such a point of contentment with your life. You deserve that kind of happiness!
And if you need tips about Hawaii (where to go, stay, etc.), I’m your gal.
[Reply]
It all looks lovely… and is making me hungry for lunch! :)
Do the babymoon. Just. Do it. :) :) :)

I discovered that place just before I left DC, too! So good that even my picky Italian mom liked it! (Her maiden name is DeFranco, so she loved that it was “named after her,” too.)
[Reply]
Babymoon is suchhhh a goood idea!!!!!!!!
[Reply]
What a special dinner!! Happy for you that you feel so content and appreciative!
[Reply]
I am going to Hawaii in August for the first time! I’m so excited! Hope you get to take a trip too!
[Reply]
OMG, I’ve celebrated many a moment in that adorable little trattoria and the food is always MIND-BLOWING! So glad you got to experience it! :)
[Reply]
Yay to new beginnings ..and new things too!
[Reply]
What a great post, Emily! I loved reading it and am so glad you’re so content! And I LOVE finding awesome restauarnts (especially Italian ones, I love Italian food!)!
[Reply]
We went to Maui for our honeymoon and swore that we’ll never go anywhere else but Hawaii for tropical vacations. It’s like no place I’ve EVER been. Plus, it’s super active – you guys would love it.
Also – as you’re moving out to Seattle – I’m going to be doing the Flying Pig (half)…Any advice for the hills?? :)
[Reply]
Hawaii is amazeballs. You should totally go! And if you do you should visit the Ali Kula Lavendar farm and the Surfing Goat Dairy farm. The highlights of my trip to Maui. I sat on the top of a huge hill and drank lavendar lemonaid and ate fresh goat cheese. Divine! :)
[Reply]
So glad you are so happy :) And a babymoon sounds great :)
[Reply]
A babymoon sounds so fun, what a cute idea! I’ve seen this restaurant but never been, I definitely want to now!!!
[Reply]
Oh, a babymoon sounds so adorable. Hope you’re able to go on your trip.
Glad to see you are so happy. :-) That meal would definitely add to my happiness.
[Reply]
Ahh-I love outdoor dining as long as the weather is right! :)
The part about the place that you are right now in your life is so awesome. I cannot wait to have that feeling!
[Reply]
It’s funny you say that you’re just so happy right now because I can tell in your tweets and blog posts. Every one has a ray of sunshine behind it. It’s so authentic. :)
Also, I’m kind of on the same side of the table as Casey about eating al fresco. I’m not sure why he’s averse to eating outside, but for me, in VA, the outside tables automatically become the smoking section since you can’t smoke indoors. No. Thank. You.

Yes, you can definitely tell how content with life you are! Hope you get to go to Hawaii over the summer – can’t wait to go there myself, someday.
PS – Definitely showing a bit of baby bump there :) – adorable!
[Reply]
You are so cute.
[Reply]
Hope you get to go to Hawaii!! I just returned from a week in Kauai and it was the most beautiful, relaxing place I’ve EVER been. I would highly recommend it.
[Reply]
Your happiness is contagious! I can’t wait to be in that perfect place in life. Congratulations!
[Reply]
DEFINITELY travel to Hawaii from Seattle! We have gone every year for the past five years and LOVE it!!
Loved this blog and glad to “see” you so happy!
[Reply]
My husband doesn’t care to eat outside either. Must be a guy thing ;)
[Reply]
Just started reading a few months ago, and as an Alexandria native/resident, I am sad you are leaving. I have enjoyed seeing this area from your eyes. I’m going to keep reading though! Good luck!
[Reply]
That looks yum. And I love those 2 hour dinners where you talk and talk.
[Reply]
Another vote for the babymoon! Glad you’re feeling happy. I know that moving to Seattle will bring many new adventures, too!
I love Italian food (lasagna being a favorite), but the dairy… my stomach… sometimes I just deal with the consequences. ;)
[Reply]
Kirt’s boss goes to Hawaii from Seattle pretty often, I think. (She just got back from there like two weeks ago). You should TOTALLY do a babymoon!
[Reply]
Ah that food looks so amazing!! And I definitely think you should take a babymoon!!!! You’ll look so cute in a bikini with a baby bump!!
[Reply]
I feel the same way! I wake up every morning feeling so blessed at how life is going. I feel so lucky. :)
[Reply]
What a wonderful post. Thanks again for the beautiful pictures. You always come through. Definitely if you can go to Hawaii. Never been there but want to but the flight so long from east coast. When the baby comes you will be busy so go if you can and I’ll just envy you. Post pics of course.
Have a blessed weekend. It’s Palm Sunday.

I hope you get your babymoon! Hawaii would be a good choice. I’ve always wanted to go to DC in the spring to see all the cherry blossoms blooming. It looks so pretty.
[Reply]
A babymoon sounds delightful! I’ve never heard of that! Love reading the upbeat posts! It’s a very exciting time for you!
[Reply]
Do the babymoon!!! You will not regret it!
I absolutely love how happy you sound in all of these posts. Despite the raging hormones, I can tell how deeply satisfied you feel with life and that just oozes out to us reading as well. I’m so excited for you and all the future holds for you.
And PS – I want Italian food now.
[Reply]
That meal looks incredible. THe tone of your writing just seems so “at peace” and happy these days. I am so glad you are doing well with all the changes that are occuring! You’re a rock star.
[Reply]
Ooh, Hawaii. Jealous! And capers make everything better.
[Reply]
OMG I’ve never been in there but the food looks delish! Hubs and I will have to give it a try! The outdoor patio is always so cute :)
And Hawaii is AMAZING! I highly reccommend Kauai or the Big Island (Kona area). xo
[Reply]
I love that you are in such a good place right now, very important to stay there when going through such major life changes. Hawaii is a magical place. I’ve been to several islands and fell in love with them all. My husband and I got married on Maui… can’t wait to go back.
[Reply]
I don’t know if it is the sweatshirt or not but you have a noticeable bump in the picture of you on the sidewalk…HOW CUTE!
Take the babymoon now because once baby Garnish arrives you will be so wrapped up in his care that you may forget to take time for yourselves.
Hawaii would be beautiful…so go take the trip so that I can vicariously visit as well :)
[Reply]
I am so happy for you! If you happen to decide on Maui, feel free to let me know – I can offer tips on a great place to stay, as well as hikes, beaches, and the best breakfast on the island.
[Reply]
Wow, that looked like a wonderful meal! You definitely should go to Hawaii while you can before Baby G arrives! You never know when you’ll have the chance to go back!
[Reply]
You are going to LOVE Bizzarro Italian Cafe in Seattle. Absolutely amazing food, great atmosphere, cozy, and all-around incredible. It’s my favorite italian food outside of Italy. And better than some places IN Italy!
[Reply]
My husband has an aversion to eating outside too
[Reply]
Go to Hawaii!! It’s awesome, you guys would love it! If you need recommendations, let me know, I know of a couple good places to stay, things to do, etc… I love Hawaii :)
[Reply]
I just thought of your hotel maid days reading this post! You have come a long way, Emily. You make me excited about growing up and being 30 and being content with my life.
[Reply]
What a lovely, special dinner!
Hawaii would be such a great vacation, I’ve never been but you’re right, flights from the west coast are super cheap and we should both take advantage! Although it’s hard to leave the northwest during the summer when the weather is so nice.
[Reply]
I am so happy for you that you are so content with life, that is awesome. Everyone always has their plan but whether or not it comes true is a different story. I’m glad yours is all falling into place :) And the food sounds fantastic! Glad you were able to enjoy yourselves.
[Reply]
Just wanted to tell you how much I’ve enjoyed reading about your experiences. As a soon to be newly wed, I too, feel a sense of optimism and contentment that I didn’t know I was living without until now.
My fiance also has an aversion to outdoor eating and it kills me too! I love soaking up the sun and he just gets hot and bothered!
Random, but have you been watching Pregnant In Heels on Bravo? It’s totally ridiculous but entertaining.
[Reply]
This is an awesome post – you and Casey as a couple are the most beautiful things ever! I wish more than anything I could find a guy to have that with.
I’m so glad you’re happy :)
[Reply]
I can’t get over how many similarities you have with a friend of mine that lives in the Seattle area. She is vegetarian, 22ish weeks pregnant, and her and her husband just came back from a babymoon to Hawaii!
You should put Hawaii on the babymoon list for sure!
[Reply]
I don’t even “know” you but I’m sooo happy that you’re happy! :-)
WHEN you go to Hawaii you have to go to Kauai, it’s the most beautiful island of them all.
[Reply]
From an Italian, your dinner looked fabulous!
Also, totally go to Hawaii! We got married there over 4 years ago now…LOVE it!
We are headed back there to celebrate 5 wonderful years of marriage in Feb 2012- so excited!!
[Reply]
that dinner looks incredible!
[Reply]
Oh, hunger pains. Haha. Your evening looked delectable!

Flights are great prices right now out of Seattle or Bellingham direct to Hawaii. We are leaving tomorrow for Oahu for seven days. The last big vacation pre baby. It is important to do that I think before baby changes everything!

Your dinner looks so cozy and relaxing! I have been thinking lately how my husband and I could really using a relaxing/fun evening out – we, too, are always on the go (and just moved two weeks ago, as well!) so we’re in similar boats. Thanks for the inspiration – looks like date night is in order this weekend.
Glad you’re feeling better and that your appetite is coming back!
[Reply]
Oh I wholeheartedly recommend a Hawaii vacation! I’ve spent my summers there for the last three years and it is the most beautiful, romantic, wonderful place! If you needed any recommendations for food, hotels, or activities I would be more than happy to help!
[Reply]
seriously GO TO HAWAI’I. I spent 5 weeks there on an internship (Oahu) last June and it was the best time of my LIFE. You will never regret it!
[Reply]
I have also wanted to always go to Hawaii!! It is expensive but if you can get a cheap flight most likely worth it!
[Reply]
We are going to Kauai this summer for our Babymoon, we just booked it! I’ll be 5 months pregnant so not looking forward to the flight but am looking for to exploring the island!

You definitely need to do a babymoon! Get all the quality husband+wife time in while you can. :-)
[Reply]
I am so glad you are deliciously happy with your life. After last fall, there is no better place to be in life than where you are right now. Embrace it and savor every minute. As a mom of three little ones, I vote for a babymoon. Life gets very busy after the little ones arrive.
[Reply]
I’ve never heard of a babymoon! But what a GREAT idea!
[Reply]
I love those kinds of dinner when you’re in no rush to be somewhere and you just relax and enjoy the food and the company.
I think you should definitely go to Hawaii – my husband and I went to Maui for our honeymoon and it was a.ma.zing! I recommend taking the Road to Hana excursion (plan a whole day for it). And my other favorites were taking a sunset cruise and snorkeling off the coast (not sure if you would want to do that while prego). We had a blast. I would be happy to share more info with you if you decide to go!
[Reply]
Everything looks so good. I am craving pasta right now. My husband also really does not like to eat outside. I hate it when we go out on a nice day and then go into the freeze cold air conditioned restaurant. What is with these men?

You are seriously adorable. I am so happy for you. That Italian looks delish I’ve been craving it lately so it really appeals to me!
[Reply]
Definitely do Hawaii! We live on Oahu and couldn’t be happier! If you are thinking of Oahu, I would stay on the North Shore instead of Waikiki just because you can rent a house and enjoy the beach instead of all the tourists. But if you are thinking of another island, Kauai is beautiful and quiet. Each island has something amazing to offer :) Have fun!
[Reply]
I just feel the love through your post. You sound so happy and I’m so happy for you and Casey. And though I don’t know you personally, I feel like I do b/c you and Casey seem like such down to earth, friendly, sweet people…people that I would want to be friends with if I lived by you. That is why I’m truly happy for you and you deserve it! I’m at that happy place too in my life…the only thing now that will put it on another level of happiness is once we get pregnant :) Good luck on the upcoming moving logistics…I bet you’ll do fine :)
[Reply]
I think a babymoon is a fabulous idea! We took a family trip to Vegas when I was 7 1/2 months pregnant, and it was the first time I’d ever worn a bikini :)
I loved my huge belly, and we had a great time at the pool.
[Reply]
What a wonderful meal. I can picture how fabulous it was, I love perfect meals like that with my man. I’m so excited for you, how you’re feeling so good, so happy :) I feel the same way in my life, it’s a glorious thing. & you’re SO right about good Italian food making you not feel weighed down. mmmmmmm delicioso!

Thanks for the pictures of Old Town. I miss it everyday! It was the town that I became an adult in for sure. I never ate at that restaurant but saw it and always wanted to try it. We made a bucket list before we left DC too. I highly recommend a picnic on Theodore Roosevelt’s Island off the GW parkway. And – yes, Hawaii is a MUST.
:)
[Reply]
Your happiness radiates from every post you write, you didn’t need to post about it for me to notice! Reading your blog always puts me in a great mood, your happiness is contagious. Take the babymoon, I feel like you and Casey deserve it :)
[Reply]
That makes me absolutely happy that you have reached such an exciting place. I hope to reach that place myself soon. So much baby fever, so little time :)
The food looks fabulous. I don’t think I’ve ever had a meal that lasted that long, but it sounds so European. Truly savoring every bite.
[Reply]
What a fantastic night!! So happy you and Casey got out and enjoyed this. You guys deserved it.

it’s just so beautiful that your so happy.

If you do come to Hawai`i let me know!!! Flights are cheap from SEA to Hawai`i, and they have a direct flight to Maui [wink*wink*nudge*nudge], hehe.

[Reply]
I definitely recommend Hawaii!! We went there for our honeymoon last year. We live in California so we go to take advantage of the cheaper flights too. We went to Maui and it was perfect. Not super busy like Honolulu, yet lots to do. Very slow paced and you will live the way everyone spends all their time outdoors there :)

Italian food= <3 I can't wait to find a guy to go on wonderful long dinners with
[Reply]
You guys are just adorable and I love reading about the true love that you have. I stumbled on your blog by accident – we actually had a “test kitchen” – kind of like “Chopped” where we competed with select ingredients. We had to do an appy, main course and dessert with at least 3 of 5 ingredients – goat cheese, almonds, red potatoes, crab and pearl onions (I know – not nearly as tough as on “Chopped”). Anyways, I made your incredible red potato salad with goat cheese as a side with my entree and it was a HUGE hit! Anyways, you are a super writer and I sure wish my head was on as straight as yours when I was younger (I’m 43 now). Congrats on all you have achieved in life and continue to reach for the stars…and keep on enjoying Casey and little Baby Garnish when he arrives!

I absolutely love meals like that!! Slowly paced + full of food. My favorite! It’s so hard to find really authentic Italian food. It reminds me of our amaaaazing find in San Fran. I remember savoring every single bite of that meal + such great ambiance. And I say…Babymoon it up!!!! xo

What a wonderful night :) It’s so great that you are happy with your life, and wake up grateful everyday, I LOVE that :D
The food looks amazing and I love how you can walk everywhere! I long to live in a walkable city! A babymoon (hehe) sounds like a great idea too. I’m glad that you are so happy, Emily!
PS. I love that gray jacket, so cute!
PSS. I just remembered something and wanted to ask- Remember when you bought the 5 year journal, where you write a sentence down everyday? I have to ask- are you still doing that? I bet it’s full of great memories, now that your life has changed so much! ;)

Such a beautiful post — I’m looking forward to that period in my life as well!
And I’m a firm believer in that some of my favorite/most memorable meals have been the longest ones :) If only life didn’t get in the way…
(Also, do you have a list somewhere of your favorite places in Old Town? I go to school in DC and my friends and I are thinking of venturing over there sometime soon. Would love any suggestions you have on good, college budget-friendly fare…and maybe an ice-cream/dessert place?
[Reply]
Oooo, a Hawaiian babymoon sounds perfect! And that Italian food is making me hungry despite the fact that I just ate lunch! :)

Yum, that Italian food looks incredible! What a fun date night!
Those tickets to Hawaii have been amazingly priced! We talked about doing a babymoon there as well, but we are still debating on an ideal location….hmmmm……
