About Me

About Me

Hi! I'm Linda... blog publisher, mom of two teens, and longtime resident of Washington, DC (going on 30 years!). I used to joke that I've lived here so long because I'm averse to change. But, really, I just love my city. District Mix is a reflection of that with a mix of things about DC...and some other stuff mixed in. Thanks for stopping by!
