One Short Day

I've said before that when I first moved to Philly I listened to the Wicked soundtrack a lot, and I've always associated the city with the song One Short Day. I was super lucky to have my friend Brenna down to sleep over last night and we went out to enjoy a short day in my Oz. (And it was short - she was leaving at 1pm, so we only had a few jam-packed hours together!)

Walking to South Street, passing pretty buildings...
Breakfast at 4th Street Deli, followed by candy at Sweet tooth
This deli gives you danishes while you wait for breakfast!
The Zipperhead building - snapped this shot on our way to Crash Bang Boom!
Lion outside of Garland of Letters
We posed for outfit photos..

I got some awesome stuff!

Brenna is a very close friend (one of my best friends, actually) and she lives far far away. I don't get to see her very often and I was just so happy to have her down today! We went to Philly Aids Thrift and I bought yet another owl, and she watched me try on tons of jackets. We had good food and froyo and candy. We had lots of coffee (I'm dreaming about that cup in that pictures right now!) and all in all I think we both had a blast. I'm so happy I got to see her! Also, she finally got to meet my Mister, which is super important because I love them both. Yay!

    Yay! Glad you had such fun. And thanks for sharing your city with us. Pics like this are a nice way to vicariously visit other towns.

    Just a wee few precious hours with your favourite gal, a bit of shopping and brekkie together, can be just the thing to give you your bestie fix until next time. I did the same this morning ... it was only an hour over coffee, but it was heaven :) xoxo

      It's a cool story, too, that they aren't allowed to remove the ants from the building because it's a landmark (according to my friends). And when zipperhead moved around the corner to become Crash Bang Boom, they took an ant with them! I love little things like that. ^_^

    So much fun! Brenna has awesome style. And you look fantastic in your animal print. Danishes while you WAIT for breakfast? That's my kind of place.

      Brenna just made her derby team in Massachusetts and is all about derby style right now, which rocks because it looks SO GOOD on her! :-) And those danishes were amazing. And then after breakfast they brought us cookies... which I just remembered that I have in my purse... maybe I should eat those....hmmmm

    I had a freaking BLAST with Meghan and I'm so glad I met her Mister (he and I share book tastes. He is therefore awesome).

    And thank you, Commenters for the nice words about my outfit!

    I had a BLAST hanging out with Mehgan. I'm so glad I got to meet her Mister. He and I have the same taste in books (and clearly women because we both find Meghan to be fantastic and adorable... *ahem*).

    Thank you Commenters for the nice words about my outfit. :)
