šŸ‘½šŸŽ¬ E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL
šŸ“” ***He is afraid. He is alone. He is three million light years from home. But does he still capture hearts in 2026, or is he a relic of the past?*** **šŸ‘‹ Hey guys,** we’ll be watching the re-release of **Steven Spielberg’s** classic, **E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial**, and seeing if its magic still resonates today. If you haven’t seen this film, chances are you’ve heard of it. Perhaps this is your time to see if it lives up to the hype the past! The premise follows a gentle alien botanist stranded on Earth who befriends a lonely 10-year-old boy named Elliott. Together with his siblings, Elliott hides E.T. from the government while helping him "phone home" to be rescued, forging a deep psychic and emotional bond. We’ll be meeting at the **Look Dine-In Cinema Bar at 6:30 PM**, for a catch-up before heading over to **Screen 7**. I’ll be in **seat E9**, but feel free to sit wherever works best for you. After the film, we’ll regroup for commentary and a **[Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse)** chat, it’ll be a fun, laid-back evening overall. **Look forward to seeing you guys then!** — **Jonny** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- šŸ‘‰ **HEADS UP** * If you **sign up** and later can’t make it, please šŸ™ **drop us a quick message** (or change your RSVP) — it really helps with planning.

Wine, Food and NO Music@ Rockland's Farm Winery (Poolesville)
Wine, Food and NO Music@ Rockland's Farm Winery (Poolesville)
They have a 4.7 rating and food trucks (until 7 pm), and they make special Pizza this Saturday. The music is Folk Pop, and we can watch the sun set as we drink wonderful wine right before they close. * Wine is currently available **by the bottle, glass, 3-wine flight, and guided 5-wine tasting. A guided 5-wine tasting costs $22 per person, and it is a seated experience in our tasting room. We do not take reservations.** * **[Rotating food vendors](https://www.rocklandsfarmmd.com/events/calendar)** on-site year-round every Saturday 12-7 pm. Local snacks and charcuterie also available in their tasting room. It's not too far to drive home on the back roads so take it slow going home or get a designated driver (carpool) or take Uber. Drink responsibly (whatever that means! LOL). I would bring a folding chair just in case there aren't any available. We can't reserve an area or chairs. Making sure this is a music event so check back in a couple of days. # House Show (TBD) - Eli Lev Saturday, April 18, 2026Ā·6:00 – 9:00pm [Rocklands Farm Winery, 14531 Montevideo Rd, Poolesville, MD 20837, USA](https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=Rocklands%20Farm%20Winery%2C%2014531%20Montevideo%20Rd%2C%20Poolesville%2C%20MD%2020837%2C%20USA&source=calendar) *notes* Coming Soon! - Join us Saturday (time TBD) in the Stone House. Our "House Show Series" is a ticketed show for guests to have a beautiful, unique experience, up close and personal with Eli. Come early to get a good seat, delicious wine, and great food from the food truck. With one foot in the traditions of conscious folk music and another foot in modern pop production, Eli stands firmly on his own ground. His earnest, enlightened, and invigorating folk-pop has garnered favorable comparisons to Jason Mraz, Ed Sheeran, Noah Kahan, Jack Johnson, and John Denver.

Private Dark Chocolate Tasting in Chantilly!
Private Dark Chocolate Tasting in Chantilly!
We've done this event before and it was interesting and fun — and this time we've booked a private group tasting just for us! Tour this small chocolate factory and then taste a spectrum of flavors of (dark) single origin chocolate, with expert guidance very much like a wine tasting! There's also a small chocolate shop of course :) Cost is $25 per person (payable to me, I've reserved for a private group of 4 people and we can add more as we wish). The location is in Chantilly and not convenient to metro (though there is a bus). I am happy to pick up participants at the East Falls Church (if you're riding from downtown) or West Falls Church (if you want to park) metro stations, and it's about a 20-minute drive from there. It's recommended that you bring a bottle of water to cleanse your palate :) Hope you can join!

Meet and Greet at Andy's Pizza
Meet and Greet at Andy's Pizza
This location is where GRASP started in April 2022 and we're so excited to see it open as a pizza restaurant again! This will be a great opportunity to meet friends old and new while enjoying pizza that has become quite a hit in the DMV area! Andy's serves pizza by the slice and also wine by the bottle. Two slices of pizza and a coke cost about $12. It all started with a ball of Trader Joe’s pizza dough. Over nearly a decade, Andy Brown has refined his recipe from semihomemade to a from-scratch crust that ferments for 72 hours before it’s baked in a hot stone oven. This location, in Kentlands, is the newest but Andy’s is quickly mushrooming around DC and NoVA. With its pliable crust, tangy tomatoes, and high-quality cheese, this is one of the most awarded pizzas in the DMV.

Korean Cuisine @ George's Hotpot and BBQ (4.5 rating!)
Korean Cuisine @ George's Hotpot and BBQ (4.5 rating!)
Back by popular demand (One person)! George's Hotpot and BBQ has separate dishes for reasonable prices. It's not all you can eat. You buy each dish and cook it in the BBQ or hot pot or both. Prices on average are about $6-10/dish. Two dishes are enough! They have wine and beer and soft drinks and tea. They also have a sauce bar similar to K-Pots. It's nice to be able to bring home what you can't eat and reheat it for dinner the following night. I thought the food was very tasty and they had good quality meat and seafood. Have a look at their menu: http://www.georgeshotpotandbbq.com/ All aboard mates!
