Sale Away
If you're looking to redecorate your place, help a good cause or just fill some empty closet space, then check out the Junior League of Washington's 13th annual Tossed and Found Sale.
This is the mother of all rummage sales. With a little elbow grease, you can uncover loads of sporting goods, furniture, houseware, appliances and, of course, clothes, all for a great cause. The proceeds will support literacy efforts within the Washington area.
The sale takes place at 800 Henry St. in Alexandria this Saturday, April 9, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Entrance is free, but a small donation is requested. For those who must have first dibs, $35 buys entrance to Friday's Preview Night Party and Auction where all merchandise is available, but double-price (hey, it's for charity).

I've recently returned from a trip to San Francisco and dug all the thrift/cool clothing stores on Haight St. Where are some places around here that I could get my fix.

Is the tiki area of 3rd Edition in Georgetown open yet? The interior of the bar is nothing special, but I like the outdoor section a lot...
