Craig really wanted me to write about this little restaurant that is just around the corner from our apartment. It's called Chicago Pizza Grinder, and it's delicious. We went there on a weeknight, and we're looking forward to going back. It's the perfect, perfect place for a chilly night. Though it's usually pretty crowded, you can get some wine and wait at the warm bar. Once you sit down, though... Yum.
Craig had heard about this place from guys at work, and they said that the "pizza balls" were delicious. The restaurant describes them as "pizza pot pies" - here's what they look like:
Once you break into these little balls of yumminess, it's all sauce and cheese. So good. Before you order that, though, you must get the Mediterranean Bread. It's SO GOOD - it's simple... thin, soft bread with olive oil and lots of spices. Yum.
In addition to eating, we've been busy. Last weekend, I had a trunk show with a friend of mine, Julie Failey. She is a jewelry maker. The show was in the first floor of her apartment building, which is in an arts district. It was fun, but not too successful - worth a try, though! Here's a picture from the show:
We've also been walking through the zoo... Soon we'll have pictures of the Winter Lights show that's at the Lincoln Park Zoo - can't wait for that! Here's Craig at the zoo - our apartment building is the one to the right behind him.
We're heading to Memphis this weekend on the train - woo hoo! That should be an experience. There will definitely be pictures from the train and from the baptism as well!
