The Monkey and The Elephant was suggested to us by Yelp and does not disappoint. Homemade English muffins and spreads (we got topped off with a bourbon flavored spread), great house coffee, hot chocolate and bonus - it's a nonprofit helping former foster youth navigate the transition adulthood. You can read more about them and their mission here.
We're starting to wonder if everyone in Philly has a nonprofit with a mission. In Miami, most nonprofits are just fronts to launder money or avoid taxes. Or both. This whole community integrity thing is so foreign to us. But it's nice.
Also, as we mentioned, it's cold. Like below 10˚F cold. We got this as a gift for the holidays and have been wearing it around the city. Now, that is a really good photo of the coat. When we're wearing it we ride a very fine line between looking very fancy or looking very homeless. We can tell the people of Philadelphia cannot decide.
We're heading back to Miami on Monday and it's coming down to the last few months before we make the final transition from being in Miami full time to being in Philly full time. Until then, we have some major planning to do, such as finding a doctor and a place to have this baby. Someone mentioned there is a birthing center behind a Wawa nearby? Anyone have any recommendations?
