There is a place by me that has an incerdible crab cake, and cheap too (considering how much meat you get!) If you guys want I could set up a get together at my house (order out being as it would take years to get a table there for 10+). Its like, $14 for a big ole' crab cake and 2 sides. http://www.bythedocks.com/

Charm City cakes is supposed to be wonderful - but its EXPENSIVE. I think they did a wedding cake that was $12.50 a slice and another that was $8.

Got room for a cake in your MINI to bring to the Dragon for me? I saw one recently where some people drove 5 hours each way for a Goth 16th bday cake for their daughter. All the talk about crab cake is torture....we don't get crab cakes here in OH except at Red Lobster.....that doesn't count.

I'll be motoring down 395 tonight. I will look for you guys. If I see a MINI and I can catch them, I usually do and give some 'MINI love' meaning I wave, whether I get a answering wave or not.
I will look for you! I would say lets get together, but I am pretty tired when I am on my way home a 7am!
I will def keep a look out for SoulFire Maybe I'll start driving around the block at 10:00pm just to catch a wave

New membership

The membership papers are done, paypal has whisked the $26.00 to the DCMini account

and so I thought I would pop in and say "Hello"

We are (Wensley, wife and myself) are looking forward to some runs and fun this year (including the bay) We have also entered the "Britain on the Greens" so Wensley can bask amongst the fanciest of British tin

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Everyone! I just joined the DC Metro MINIs. I'm looking forward to participating in your group.

I think I recognize some of you from the OL - I've owned my MINI for a year, but just got around to joining DCMM.
