Fresh Girls from Stockholm: Kanye Wests’s Tweets Go With New Yorker Cartoons

_Pollux writes_:
__Why girls from Stockholm be so fresh????!!!!__ Oh, I don’t know. Perhaps it’s the food that makes them so fresh: anchovies awash in sweet brine; cloudberries and vanilla ice cream; crispbread with a slice of sharp Västerbotten cheese.
Kanye West doesn’t know either, and posted his question to the world as a tweet.
Kanye, one of Twitter’s newest members, has been tweeting to his heart’s delight.
As it turns out, the rapper’s tweets “can be paired perfectly”:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/08/03/kanye-west-new-yorker_n_668894.html with _New Yorker_ cartoons, like slices of Västerbotten on crispbread. The hashtag is #KanyeNewYorkerTweets. Have fun!
