Good morning {{first name | neighbor}}!
π· Did you know that Tulip Day is coming up in D.C.? On March 15th, anyone can head to the national mall and pick up ten free tulips courtesy of Royal Anthos, the Dutch Royal trade association for traders in flower bulbs? The tulips are grown in the United States but the bulbs originate from Europe. It is free but you must register.
πΎ If youβve ever been to Ranazul, chances are youβve met our friend & bartender Jeremy Reed. He was named one of the Restaurant Association of Marylandβs Bartender of the Year Finalists and if you have a moment, it would be awesome if you gave him a vote! Vote here.
β° Itβs also Daylight Savings this weekend, so youβll lose an hour of sleepβ¦ but thereβs no snow! Yay! π€£
