We're Getting Better - Oprah Says So
Jan. 27, 2010 10:51 am
Iowa is No. 32 on Oprah's list of "100 Things That Are Getting Better."
So tell us, Mighty O, why are we worthy?
32. Iowa
Legalizing gay marriage in 2009 + producing artisanal charcuterie (try La Quercia's organic prosciutto) + University of Iowa football landing among the top 25 college teams for the fifth time this decade + ranking second on MainStreet.com 's Happiness Index = one seriously happening Hawkeye State.
So freedom, food and football. No wonder we're so happy.
