📰 In the news
Regional priorities and partnerships: Military and business leaders will gather in Indian Head on March 12 for the 2026 State of the Station at CSM’s Velocity Center, with limited seating for the defense briefing — get all the details.
New space, new experience: Waldorf’s Milk & Honey has doubled its seating to 128 and is now serving alcohol, following a Feb. 12 county approval, after expanding into a 2,400-square-foot next-door space — get all the expansion details.
Discreet access to essentials: Maryland Diaper Bank and a La Plata charter school debuted a student-led hygiene hub, offering students personal care in class and at home. The pilot continues through this school year — see how it works.
Nothing prepares you for a pet emergency: I learned that the hard way after charging $10k to a credit card for life-saving surgery on my cat, Miss Stache. As soon as we got home, I signed up for Spot. It’s super affordable – and reimburses up to 90% of the bill.
Highlights this week:

🏆 Gold and silver are heating up
Together with our sponsor American Hartford Gold
Gold just posted its strongest run in decades… and the momentum is carrying into 2026. Silver has become one of the most talked-about assets as investors look for ways to stay ahead of market volatility.
While many are still sitting on the sidelines, others are quietly repositioning.
If you’re wondering whether you’re missing something, AHG has a free guide explaining what’s driving the renewed interest… and how investors are approaching precious metals right now.
It’s free and worth reading before the next move.

🫶 We got your back
Crispy, saucy wing fix: When a craving hits for Maryland-proud wings, The Remedy 20601 delivers. Think Old Bay, Thai chili, or classic Buffalo, plus pool tables and easy dive-bar vibes that turn a quick bite into a midweek ritual.
All-natural glow-up: Pristine Care keeps self-care simple with small-batch, all-natural skin and hair essentials, plus herbal blends and salves for every day. This low-key local spot offers straight-up recommendations, thoughtful formulas, and zero fuss, so you walk out feeling organized, refreshed, and ready to show up.
Weekend swing check: National Golf Club pairs a restored Ted Robinson par-72 with an elevated 16th tee that frames historic Fort Washington… if your shot cooperates. Expect tight fairways, legit practice facilities, and a mellow clubhouse vibe, making it a quietly great midweek escape.
Thinning hair? It only gets worse: A few months ago, I noticed my ponytail getting thinner. I tried the usual stuff (biotin, shampoo, etc.) but mostly just hoped it would fix itself… until I learned that active follicles can permanently go dormant if you don’t do something about it. The good news? You can get treatment that actually works with no office visits or trips to the pharmacy. Learn more about my favorite online options here.

Someone Googled you this week 👀
It may feel like an invasion of privacy, but unfortunately It’s the new normal. Whether you’re joining a committee, selling something locally, dating again, or just meeting new neighbors… people are going to look you up online.
Like it or not, the internet has a way of surfacing past mistakes and outdated information that no longer reflects who you are.
Thankfully, there’s a really easy way for you – or someone you care about – to clean up outdated results that no longer tell the real story. Learn more here.
This house is wild
The Chatham is a 4-bed, 3.5-bath stunner with a library and dining off the foyer, a spacious family room flowing to a gourmet kitchen and bright morning room. A rear extension adds space, while a cozy fireplace anchors the main level. Highlights include a mud room, 2-car garage, and a spa-like primary bath with tub and separate shower with seat.
