[Ed. Note: Winner Announced Friday, Feb. 22]
“Two submissions for your contest:
(1) A picture of A. Litteri’s entrance, representing my favorite spot this week – the D.C. Farmers’ Market off of Florida Ave in NE. Last weekend was my first trip to the market and after picking up Italian groceries, vegetables from Sam Wang’s, and a trip to one of the butchers, I was all set for a Sunday dinner for friends. I only found one fresh fish vendor but will continue the search!
(2) A poor adaptation of a good Wilco song. Give my apologies to Tweedy when you see him at show.”
Check out the adaptation of the Wilco song after the jump.

Prince o’P, don’t cry
You can rely on us honey
You can drop by any time you want
We’ll be around
You were right about DC
Each block, a great place should be
Fed buildings shake
Voices escape singing loud loud songs
Tuned to chords strung down their cheeks
Party melodies turning their orbit around
Don’t cry
You can rely on us honey
Come stop by any time you want
We’ll stick around
You are right about DC
Each street is a rising sun
Wilson building shakes
Voices escape singing big big songs
Tuned to chords strung down our cheeks
City melodies turning our orbit around
Voices rise
The city is coming together
Your voice is calling
A Wilco spot is what we can get
Turning our orbit around
Northeast
Southwest
It’s all our neighborhood
Southeast
Northwest, it’s all of our city
Each one is a shining sun
Our houses shake
Voices escape singing sweet sweet songs
Tuned to chords strung down your cheeks
Petworth melodies turning your orbit around
Your voice rose
Jeff Tweedy is coming to our town
My voice is calling
A last Wilco spot is all I would like
Turning my orbit around
A last Wilco spot is all I would like
Turning my orbit around
A last Wilco spot is all I would like
Turning my orbit around

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
