Home Is Where the Heart Is
David Hartzman, Jack Hartzman, Monica Vidal
THE CONCEPT OF HOME IS DIFFERENT FOR EVERYONE. For some, home is where the family is. It’s the place where weekends were— or still are—filled with baby snuggles, bedtime stories and Saturday morning cartoons. The place where the smell of pancakes and coffee fills the air on Sunday mornings, "do your homework before you go outside" is a daily mantra and unsnoozable slobbery dog kisses take the place of your morning alarm. For others, home is where the rest is. It’s the place where, after a long day, they go to relax. Where they spend meaningful time with their significant other, enjoy home-cooked meals and settle in on a comfy couch to catch up on the week's latest guilty pleasure TV shows.

For some, home is where the work is. It's where they build their dreams, where they start their businesses and where they work day in and day out for success.

And for us here at Potomac Lifestyle, home is where the heart is—it's where we get to share meaningful stories with all of you. Whatever your home may be, we hope you find a piece of it here in this month's issue.

Amazon expects to make a decision this year. Amazon HQ2 will be a complete headquarters for Amazon, not a satellite office. The company plans to invest more than $5 billion and grow this second headquarters to accommodate as many as 50,000 high-paying jobs. In addition to Amazon’s direct hiring and investment, construction and ongoing operation of Amazon HQ2 is expected to create tens of thousands of additional jobs and tens of billions of dollars in additional investment in the surrounding community.

A FAVORITE RECIPE FROM FOUNDING FARMERS CHEF JOE GOETZE ARTICLE DANIELLE TEPPER | PHOTOGRAPHY JACK HARTZMAN

Potomac Lifestyle | March 2018
ACCORDING TO FOUNDING FARMERS CHEF JOE GOETZE, THE MOST INTERESTING AND IMPORTANT PART OF HIS JOB IS SOURCING THE FOOD AND KNOWING THE ORIGINS OF EACH INGREDIENT. Whether it’s how and where the tomatoes were grown or exactly where the cows were born and how they were raised, he believes that the hallmark of a great chef is one that creates fresh, memorable meals for every guest.
RED FLANNEL HASH + ¼ cup unsalted butter + 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and shredded + 1 cup minced yellow onions + 1 cup sliced green onions, green and white parts + 1 cup diced green bell pepper, diced + 4 teaspoons minced garlic + Kosher salt and black pepper + 1 cup soft goat cheese + ½ cup roughly chopped fresh parsley + 8 large eggs + 4 teaspoons finely sliced fresh chives 1. For the eggs, fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. 2. While the water heats, make the hash. Heat the butter in an extra-large sauté pan (12-14 inches). Add shredded

potatoes and cook, without stirring, over medium-high heat until the potatoes turn golden brown. Turn them over (it’s OK if they fall apart) and brown on the opposite side. 3. Add the yellow onions, green onions, green bell pepper, garlic and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper and sauté for about 2 minutes. Add the roasted beet, goat cheese and parsley. Fold everything together. 4. To poach the eggs, crack each egg into a small prep bowl. Stir the simmering water in one quadrant of the pan. Gently tip one egg into the center of the swirling water. Repeat this step in other quadrants of the pan as necessary to poach all eggs at once. Keep water at a very gentle simmer, adjusting the heat if necessary, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the eggs set up. The whites will appear cooked and the yolks should remain soft in the middle.

BUREAU When Kerra Michele Huerta describes the collaborative space at Washington D.C.’s BUREAU, she says it’s like “cozying up in friend’s loft apartment.” Which might be true if you had the kinds of friends praised by HGTV, Better Homes and Gardens and the "Today" show for their interior design prowess. As a creative entrepreneur, Kerra Michele had longed for the camaraderie and creativity she missed out on by working solo and from home. So she founded BUREAU, a gorgeous co-working and event space, located in Washington’s Adams Morgan neighborhood to provide a space for likeminded professionals to meet each other, be inspired and get to work. Oh, and maybe sip some champagne, too. Perks of membership include snacks and beverages, access to interns and conference rooms, free or discounted admission to workshops and happy hours, and, of course, the chance to work in a beautiful space surrounded by talented people.
