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.

Follow-Up First

So, not 2 minutes ago we had another exciting first- our first time setting fire to something in our apartment! BUT DON'T WORRY FOLKS we are completely fine! A paper towel was placed a little too closely to a burner on the stove and we have gas stove/oven so there is always an open flame when we cook. I looked at it an was so stunned by what I was seeing that I stood paralyzed, not realizing fully that it was actually on fire- I thought it must be a trick of the eye. Mid orange juice pour I say, "Oh My!" and Rory turns to see the fire. Acting very quickly and manly, he stopped, dropped, and rolled his bare hand right onto the lit paper towel. It was out just like that and he wasn't even burned! I contributed by smashing a little ember with the spatula and making sure there was nothing left that could build up again into flames.  Wow, December sure is exciting!
