ABOUT THE BLOGGERS

Danielle and Rory are newlyweds living in Philadelphia, where they moved from their native Minnesota. They came to Philly for law school at Drexel University, but currently only Danielle has remained strong in her quest. She recently reached the end of her first year, and is now a legal rock star! For the summer she is interning at Philadelphia VIP (see post of February 26, "Spotlight: Philadelphia VIP"). Rory dropped out and is now working for a federal contractor as a writer. Check out the blog, where these happily-married white kids post about their adventures in food, a little travel, and then some more well-earned food. Sometimes, when Rory is asleep, Danielle even throws in some posts about crafts and other boring things, if you're into that.

Pretty Girls

Danielle and I finally did our second "deep cleaning" of our apartment tonight after a holy day consisting of double duty church (Catholic and Lutheran services), a nap, and quite a bit of Mario Kart Wii. I love the Sabbath.

 So now the apartment is looking fairly great again, except for the lack of a desk in the living room, which is causing minor chaos. We have at least confined it to one small corner of the room. Danielle has been diligently searching Craigslist for a desk, but alas the search continues. Thankfully we can at least approach the coming week or two with some peace of mind before we need to get out the Swiffer and vacuum again.

 The main point of this post, though, is that while we clean we like to listen to Q102 here in Philly. It is a lot like KDWB 101.3 in the Twin Cities, which I used to listen to a lot. One of my favorite jams on Q102 right now is "Pretty Girls" by Iyaz. So this "Pretty Girls" song, it has a Philly edition, which changes a few of the lyrics to give shout outs to local neighborhoods. We checked online and found out that the Twin Cities has an edit, too, so we just thought we could share the YouTube links for the two city-specific edits and let you all enjoy!

P.S. I just love the skyline shots of Minneapolis, especially the second one, with all the lights!
