Meet Becca Clara Love & Cori Sue Morris. Better known as the Bitches Who Brunch. “Becca and Cori Sue are brunching their way around Washington, D.C….” was all it said in March of 2010 at the inception. More than 200 brunches later, Bitches Who Brunch has become the website Washingtonians turn to when they want to know where to brunch—or what to wear and where to party. The Bitches provide their readers with fresh content every week day, starting with Monday’s This Week events calendar and continuing with District Divas event and party recaps, Lust List fashion posts, and Bitchtastic Brunch reviews throughout the week. Bitches Who Brunch has become a staple for selecting the perfect brunch spot for a Sunday whether it be hungover with friends or out with your parents and with a new design around the corner FamousDC is looking forward to even more bitchtastic things from Becca Clara & Cori Sue.

Dan Everett & Jenna House celebrated their wedding by getting a few pictures on the field in between the ceremony and the reception. A friend of the couple is an Assistant AD at UMD and got them onto the field after a scrimmage. Too bad not everyone is a fan of such a touchdown wedding.
