The BritList: Beer Shorts, Baby Mugging + More
It’s certainly been a newsworthy week across the country, from the streets of SF rejoicing over the strike down of DOMA to the longest day of the year and the farewell to the first half of 2013. In between these milestones, we trust you still have room for a little whimsy in your Friday. Welcome to the BritList.
