Breaking Amish Person Not Impressed With White House

“It’s like a dollhouse,” cast member Sabrina said on the probably fake TLC show. “I expected a palace.”

You Stay Classy, Cable Television!

UPDATE (2:15 p.m.): Well, it appears that the video has been pulled from public view. (Can’t say I blame whoever made that decision.) Instead, you’ll just have to settle for the screencap we grabbed of the actor playing Condit putting something in the dumpster.

TLC Reportedly Working On Chandra Levy TV Movie

We couldn’t help but notice this little nugget in Mike DeBonis’ must-read daily politics roundup this morning: according to McClatchy, cable channel TLC is planning on a TV movie which about the Chandra Levy murder. Somehow, it sounds even more low-brow than one would imagine such a production to be.

Sharks vs. Cupcakes

Photo from TLC. Starting on July 16 at 10 p.m., TLC will be airing D.C. Cupcakes. The six-episode series follows the local sister tandem of Sophie LaMontagne and Katherine Kallinis, who run Georgetown Cupcake. We know we’ve been saying that cupcakes, as a culinary trend, jumped the shark quite some time ago.

Our quest for proprietary fried dough led us to Colorado Kitchen, Hotel Tabard Inn, and 2 Amys. Yes, we consumed 11 donuts this weekend so we might share our revelations with you.

D.C. Schools Beautification Day

D.C. Public Schools start classes bright and early Monday, August 29, and the grounds (not to mention the interiors) of many District schools are in sorry shape. It’s time to do a little weeding, painting, mulching and pruning. Schools, parents and community groups are joining forces and co-sponsoring a beautification day this Saturday, August 27, and asking for your help. Our area schools — especially in Ward One — need a little TLC to kick…

Keri Strug’s Armoire for Sale

Are you in need of an armoire with “numerous shelves and two large cabinets for storage.” Can you move it? (It’s big.) Then you should contact an Olympic gymnast-turned-Treasury Department civil servant. Keri Strug, whose gold medal performance was the triumph of the 1996 Atlanta games, is moving out of the Meridian Court House Commons in Arlington and needs to sell her furniture. But there is one feature that may make the $150 price worth…
