Giveaway – Tickets to an AFI Festival Documentary This Week!

One of my most favorite people will be in D.C. for work, Sarah! She will be doing her thang at the American Film Institute’s (AFI) Documentary Festival in D.C. (and Silver Spring, MD) this week.

As one of my longest and most loyal Bee in DC readers, she’s offering an AFI giveaway opp for a lucky reader! Who loves watching documentaries?! I love them which makes me SO excited to give away two tickets to the documentary, Picture Character, during the festival in DC later this week on Sunday, June 23rd at 3:30pm at Landmark E Street Cinema. The filmmakers will even be in attendance!

One more day until I turn 36! 🙂

Who is never in need of fresh flowers at some point? For a friend’s birthday, for a kid’s performance or play, or just some cheer to bring to your desk? I love, love, love Trader Joe’s small bouquets. They are beautiful, and only $3.99. Who can beat that? And they last for days!

OBX Recap
