Spent the morning with my friend Robin. We have been planning this
outing for almost two months now, so it was good to finally get it on the
books and make it happen!! We had brunch at the tapas place, Cafe
Ba Ba Reeba - the cinnamon french toast was spectacular. But, in true
tapas fashion, it was a single piece of french toast - I could have eaten
three!!
We headed around the corner to make custom 1154 lill bags. This was
the first time I've actually done this, Robin has like ten of these bags.
It's fun, you pick the bag shape and then all of the fabrics. I chose two
bags { I just couldn't choose } the Lexie in navy and steel gray and the
Sophie in two black fabrics with the accents in red. Luckily I had a
Living Social coupon and the Lexie was on sale! Woot!
One last mission for the afternoon was to ride the Navy Pier ferris wheel. I purchased a groupon for
tickets and it's up this coming Friday. Ridiculous I left it till the very last minute, but whatever! Sadly, the
wheel was not running because it was hella windy, so I guess I will have to try to make it down some
night this week. Boo!
On a completely unrelated note ... I was thumbing through my mountain of magazines and Martha Stewart
inspired me to whip up some homemade pasta. Put my Kitchen Aid attachment to work and it was SO
much better than that crank machine! Oh it was so good!!! 'Twas a super Sunday! Hope yours was too!
