Feeding the Soul

For us, we were wild and crazy. Since Saturday is the one chance we have to organize our lives for the next week it was so not like us to take off for lunch at Grand Lux Cafe in Chicago where we indulged in my favorite - Asian Nachos! The median down Michagan Ave. was startingly gorgeous boasting mostly yellow and red tulips. Sorry I didn't take the camera. We even paused on the corner of Michigan Ave to "absorb the corner" - the perfect air, the sunshine, the tulips, the people, the morning, each other. One more detour to ride the ferris wheel at Navy Pier. One more weekend before Em leaves for school. I'll miss her so much. We ended the day, Em and I, dressed in silly hats and out in the not-quite-chilly night to spy on dad through the window near the deck, got caught, punctuating the night with screams and giggles.

Lindt Raspberry Swiss Milk Chocolate

Conference weekend is my favorite weekend. I like it better than Christmas.
I just ate a whole Lindt Raspberry Milk chocolate bar. I have yellow and white baby yarn for a new afghan. I love to crochet. Life is good.
