Recently, I moved to a much different area of the city, for me. I used to be a neighborhood girl, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Old Town. I now live in The New East Side, which is downtown, and tourist central. One thing I have realized since moving here, is how many wonderful things there are to do in this city. Every Monday night the city does a series of concerts in Millennium Park, Concert in the Park. So far this year, the terrible Chicago weather has not been favorable to Mondays and this was the first one we were able to go to.
We stopped by a local cheese shop, Pastoral, and picked up one of their picnic baskets and grabbed a bottle of wine from home and we were set!
We were fancy with our red solo cups, a new trend i'm noticing lately is people drinking out of small tupperware containers - no lie - I have seen it twice this week alone!
Speaking of tourists, I took this photo of my parents today in the Lurie Garden. They were also digging being tourists again, after living here for over 30 years. How cute are they?
