 Based here in the Columbia Heights neighborhood of Washington, DC, Lit City is part of the district's thriving gifting industry. Nine years ago, the city passed Initiative 71, making it legal to possess up to two ounces of marijuana for personal use. The law also created a loophole, allowing stores to gift their customers small amounts of weed, as long as they also buy another item, often at an exorbitant price, such as an 11-word motivational speech for $60 or a $95 Spider-Man sticker. We came up with a banging recipe for brownies. We named the brownies Ants College Fund Brownies, so you leave a donation, you can take a brownie, and it became such a hit because I was like, this is my son's College Fund Brownies, and this is what's going to put my son through college. Four years later, my son did graduate from Clark University and was the Massachusetts.
