“Let’s Move!” First Lady Michelle Obama tells young Americans, but the National Park Service is just saying “Move!” to Ultimate Frisbee players on The Ellipse. That open field in the southern part of President’s Park has been the site of active Ultimate games for years, but NPS wants to plant trees there, and nothing slows down a Frisbee game like smacking into a spruce.
President Obama was in Chicago this week; Mrs. Obama was in Spain. Perhaps the President ate the Spring Pea Bisque at the Graham Elliot restaurant; maybe the Missus had a nice healthy gazpacho in Marbella.
The staff at the Executive Mansion back in Washington has access to Mrs. Obama’s organic vegetable garden. What was the White House Soup of the Day on Thursday? Chili.
