Just made a Mint Julep, courtesy nightcap I found in my room, at The Willard Inter-Continental in D.C. The housekeepers here are on top of it all!  The tray is placed discreetly beside the magazines and almost hides out, until you notice the TV is tuned to Jim Hewes, bartender at the Round Robin bar downstairs. Jim tutors on how to make a Mint Julep.  After seeing it run over and over, it's time to crush some ice and mix that drink up!  I'm enjoying historic luxury at the building I drive by weekly. The Frugal Socialite has to figure out how to have a stay-over in my own town more often...

Ocean City Maryland's Frugal but Fabulous Finds

Ocean City is more than the main strip! If you drive just one block or two off the main street you'll find many places that aren't the normal beach fare. Some of The Frugal Socialite's favorite finds:

Fagers Island
Francis Scott Key Resort
Afternoon tea at the Dunes Manor Resort
