Next weekend, Mt. Zion United Methodist Church invites you to their annual Octoberfest celebration in Georgetown's Rose Park. This historic church is on the corner of P and 26th Streets, and they'll take over the park on Saturday, October 4th between 10:00 AM and 5:30 PM.

This is a fun afternoon both for the festival and for the chance to see this church. It was founded in 1816 and is the oldest African American church in the District of Columbia. I'm planning to drop in between showings!

Now that I’ve learned that some of Whole Food’s organic veggies actually come from China, buying my produce at local farmer’s markets seems like a pretty good idea. So I started off checking out Georgetown’s Rose Park Market, which is open every Wednesday between 4 and 7.

The idea was to pick up some, oh I dunno, healthy stuff. Zuchinni, cucumbers, cherries, raspberries, peaches, maybe some herbs to plant in my “garden” once I pull out all the weeds.

But wait! What is this? Who is this!

I am drawn to this table where I meet KarenKay Roberts. And Oh! My! God! These were cakes. Not ordinary cakes. They were totally amazing.

Karen was disappointed in this day’s Country Coconut Pecan Pound Cake – it looked like a giant sticky bun with coconut added. But the Strawberry Blackberry Lemon Cream Cheese Pound Cake had enough fruit to be a fruit serving on Weight Watchers.

Well, that’s a stretch.

I left without the zucchini. But I did leave with a piece of KarenKay’s cake. And this is in spite of the fact that I am leaving in two weeks for Cape Cod, where I will be expected to show up on the beach in an, er, bathing suit.

So, if you have any plans to break a diet, KarenKay’s cake is worth every single calorie and every minute I will spend on the treadmill to burn it off.

The market is in the section of Rose Park that is at 26th and O Streets.

And here are some more photos on the Rose Park Market

Yum!
