Pretty much the perfect weekend (except for the heat and humidity... 90 degrees in the shade. Chicago in the summertime. Oye).
Saturday:
Breakfast at Dixie Kitchen (eggs, bacon, cheesy grits AND the best beignets on earth)
A train ride to Custer's Last Stand (a street fair in Evanston that happens to be on Custer Street - not some weirdo re-enactment of the Battle of the Little Bighorn.) I went a little nutso with the buying - jewelry of course. Some really pretty pieces that I am so very happy with.
Lunch in the air conditioning and long talks with a good friend. Back home for a few hours. BBQ dinner and then dragged mom to the CSO for Verdi's Requiem. (more on this later).
Sunday:
Sleep in!
Washed the car for Dad for Father's Day (and washed mine too)
Did some shopping
Sat down for some crafting while watching Renee Fleming in Eugene Onegin (about time, channel 11!)
Dinner at home with the family.
This week is going to be a busy one - so if you don't hear from me for a while, send a posse to see if I've made it through, ok?
