We're coming up on 4th of July, so we're in prime potato salad season. Whether you make your own or buy it, it's always delicious. If you make your own, the variations are endless, with different herbs, proteins, vegetables, mustards and vinegars that you can add. Perhaps go with a Japanese-style salad with small boiled shrimp and edamame. My most recent favorite is a slightly healthier version that takes some hints from tzatziki sauce.

   

How many rocket scientists (and their friends) does it take to serve frozen yogurt? Just about 21 or so if you ask Mr. Yogato, the anthropomorphic mascot of a new shop opening tomorrow in Dupont Circle. Yes, rocket scientists. Steve Davis, the company's founder and "Man of Yogurt" is also an employee of SpaceX, a space exploration company with an office in D.C. Struck by the lack of "froyo" options when he transferred here (though that is increasingly no longer the case), Davis conceived of the operation with his rocket launching pals as his partners. Their vision: bringing yogurt and delicious toppings to D.C., and bringing fun and goofiness back to frozen yogurt.
