Coffee & Reading the Morning Paper

• Happy Lunar New Year! Year of the ox. Join a virtual celebration with the Smithsonian’s family programs. +We enjoyed this podcast episode about Lunar New Year traditions.
• **Reading: There’s still time for in-person gift pickup in the District: Where to Buy the Best Valentine’s Day Chocolate Gifts in Washington, DC.**
• Relax/Valentine’s Day Date: Visiting this was one of the highlights of our life — take a virtual tour of Opera Garnier, Paris, in 4K. Need more? There’s also a Paris video. These may be good videos to watch for your at-home Valentine’s Day date while you eat dark chocolate pomegranate bark (recipe below) 🙂
