That's at 9 p.m.
- DCist stopped by Miriam's Kitchen's 100 Bowls of Compassion Gala at the National Building Museum last night. Check out their video recap of the event, which they tell us brought in over $310,000. Local non-profits visited by First Ladies: officially hanging in there despite the rough economy. Didn't make it last night? You can donate to Miriam's here.
