The River East Recap: The Lady Blogger Edition


After a long hiatus the River East Recap is back!!!! There has been such an explosion of River East blogs The Advoc8te can't keep up with them all so from now on I will be featuring a sampling of the River East blogs during the River East Recap. To make this River East Recap re-launch even more special this will be a special 'Ladies Edition of the River East Recap'.  All of the blogs featured in this recap are written by women.

To check out my list of River East blogs take a stroll over to the sidebar and check out a long (and ever growing) list of River East blogs.


BARRY FARM (RE) MIXED believes in the importance of a well-trimmed bush and has put out an SOS to concerned citizens to help her with a community cleanup this Saturday at her financially strapped condominium. So far some committed condo homeowners and neighbors have donated their time and yard equipment to the project - including William C. Smith who reached out and very generously offered the use of some of their yard tools. This is what Ward 8 needs to be all about - neighbors helping neighbors! Kudos to UrbanArchitect for getting the ball rolling on this!

LIFE IN THE VILLAGE is a woman after my own heart. She puts her stiletto firmly down on tomfoolery and describes her most recent WTF moments as the new Prez of Fairfax Village IV. The Advoc8te gives Ms. V props for her community commitment and her kick a$$ "tomfoolery" graphic - The Advoc8te may have to steal borrow that graphic for a future post lol.

RIVER EAST IDEALIST gives an honest and insightful review of the new movie "Precious". It wasn't what you would expect but as I was reading the review I realized that the points that Braveheart highlighted in the post where the exact reasons why I was afraid to see that movie and I probably never will. I feel the same way about why I most likely won't be seeing the new movie "Blind-side" either.
