We’re as happy as anyone to learn that a little thing like the Baltimore Washington Parkway doesn’t get between Jenna Bush and a little partying here in D.C. The first twin, who recently moved to Baltimore with new hubby Henry Hager, was spotted at Teatro Goldoni on Saturday night, as part of a large group celebrating a friend’s engagement.

Jenna and a pair of friends sat down to dinner at one of the booths overlooking the dining room, before joining a larger cocktail reception upstairs. Later, she was seen out on the sidewalk with some of her pink-shirted, blue-blazered pals, cigarette and Miller Lite in hand. Henry was not spotted.

According to Chez Enzo Fargione, Jenna andCo. dined on tomato terrine, mixed salad, baked sea bass with fennel and saffron broth, tomato risoto with zucchini and stracchino cheese. Naturally: There was no room left for dessert.

Elsewhere around town, however, you may have spotted David Beckham bopping in and out of the Renaissance Hotel on M Street. Beckham and his soccer team, the L.A. Galaxy, were in town to play D.C. United at RFK Stadium on Sunday.

And that was actor Dakin Williams (from “The Jeff Foxworthy Show” as well as countless Shakespearean plays) dining at Locanda on Friday night.
