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.

Wrapping Up Ends...And Welcoming Beginnings

Hi All,

Wow - it has been waaaaay too long. So, hello friends, and hopefully absence has made the heart grow fonder. I guess the almost month absence means we've either been too busy or too boring to write. Actually it's a little bit of both - we've been boringly busy (so busy with boring things, like homework).

Anyways, I write to share a big moment for me. Tomorrow marks the last day of classes of my first year of law school! This semester has flown by, contributing to the craziness of being 1/3 done with my law school career. Granted, I still have 2 weeks of studying and 3 finals left before it is officially done, but it has still been quite a ride. Thank you to all of our friends and family for all of your support. It's been a life changing year both in and outside of school and I'm so glad I've had your love and encouragement through it all.

This week has also marked the beginning of Rory's job! We are excited for his great opportunity and new beginning. He still isn't sure what the job will entail, but he is sure to gain a lot of great experience. So, please keep him in your thoughts as he goes through the work and anxiety of starting a new job.

Love you all,

Danielle
