(no subject)
Just got back from Chicago.
Here's a quick re-cap of the events:
Went to see Billy Elliot in downtown at the Ford Theater.
Went to a Blue Man concert
Saw How to Train a Dragon
Looked for (but did not find) this specific juice we wanted for the wedding...will have to go a different route
Went to Girdano's (famous Chicago pizza place)
Told his parents we set a date for the wedding...and didn't really get a warm congratulations.
Went to a jeweler to look for wedding ring ideas (and learned a lot about diamond qualities and whatnot.)
Went to Starbucks and got coffee (chocolate banana smoothie for him) and sweets...I felt like coffee&dessert!
I cooked him a dinner with a bunch of random shit, but it turned out cool. Took some (possibly apricot) jam/jelly and some walnut pair balsamic vinegar dressing and some spices and made a glaze for some fish he had in the freezer...served it with green peas (in the pods!) corn on the cob (left over from grilling the night before) and salad.
I can't remember what else we did! Oh wait, yeah...we went for breakfast when I first arrived and then went to a couple antique shops that were right next to it.
I think that pretty much covered the whole weekend. It was pretty awesome, to be quite honest! Lots of fun. =)
How was everyone else's memorial weekend!?
