One native's take on what won't waste your time ★

Washington DC is more than a haven for snap-happy tourists and government wonks. There's tons of fun stuff to do and interesting places to see here that the guidebooks don't mention.

Been living here awhile and on the lookout for something fresh? New to the city and want to know what might be worth your while? Planning a visit and want to go beyond the usual? This app takes you past the most photographed attractions, offering a peek at lesser-known sites and an eclectic assortment of quality activities, restaurants, and shopping opportunities. At least according to this native, this is some of the best stuff that DC has to offer.

The "DC Insider's Guide" includes:
-More than 150 listings of museums, monuments, parks, religious sites, restaurants, shops, theaters, nightlife, and outdoor fun
-Great activities around the greater DC area - in Maryland and Virginia too
-More than 35 visits you can enjoy for free
-More than 1,000 photos to illustrate every entry
-Google maps of every listing
-Ability to sort by name, neighborhood, cost, or distance
-One-touch site info via website or phone call
-Off-line browsing (except maps and web links)
... and of course ...
-Engaging commentary on why these picks are worth your while

A smart and engaging look into America's food revolution. ★

Many of us now know that problems plague America's food system, but how often do we hear about the solutions? Katherine Gustafson set out to uncover hopeful  alternatives that can make our way of eating more sustainable, satisfying, and fair. Change Comes to Dinner takes us into farms, markets, organizations, and businesses across America that are pushing us toward a better food future.

In Virginia, a man sells the products of local farms to city-dwellers in an old school bus cum roving farmers market. In Connecticut, a hospital brings fresh, local food to its cafeteria, becoming one of the best places t
o eat in town. In Missouri, a program doubles the value of food stamps used at farmers' markets. In Iowa, an extension agent matches up retiring farmers with young agriculturalists eager to take over their farms. In Arizona, a company develops a high-yield, low-risk method of growing food in shipping containers. And everywhere in between, other inspiring enterprises are planting the seeds of a new agricultural reality, a vision based on old truths that might just save our country from itself.
