Chicago


This Thursday Andy and I are road tripping it to Chicago! We are staying with a college friend close to Wrigley Field. Remember when we went last year? Since we already did the touristy things, I want to focus on exploring more of the local shops, restaurants, and night life. Maybe a museum or two... I need suggestions for good breakfast joints, pizza places, fun bars, cute cafes, or anything else! Help!

I love Chicago! Two of my closest sorority sisters live in the area and I advise our chapter at NIU as well! I recommend the Architectural Foundation boat tour. It is a must! Absolutely beautiful and very informative. If you are a cupcake fan like me, be sure to head to More. They do cupcake happy hours on Wednesdays and Fridays and hand out free mini cupcakes that are flavored like cocktails. They are mighty tasty and surprisingly strong. And don't even think about leaving Chicago without a Portillo's dog and chocolate cake shake!
