 Tour-de-Food
by The Georgetown IndependentSep 03, 2009“By Anna Cheimets It would not be fair for me to sit here and describe the bread I ate in Paris.

by The Georgetown IndependentSep 03, 2009“By Clio Seraphim OK, I'll admit it. Like Blair Waldorf, Serena Van Der Woodsen and the rest of their merry band, characters of the CW's "Gossip Girl," I graduated from an Upper East Side private school.
