Whew!

Log time no blog Eh?!  I have been busy celebrating V-Day with Peter, working on V-Day at the restaurant, and just general fun goings on around town.

Last weekend Feb 11-12 Peter and I celebrated Valentine's day by going ice skating downtown and seeing a light and sound installation at Millennium Park.



After the ice skating there was a heated tent with a winter dance going on. We took a tango lesson and had a few cocktails.

Then went to the light and sound installation called Luminous Fields located at the BEAN. It was amazing but most of photos didn't turn out very well.









We capped off the evening with dinner at Park Grill with some delicious grilled octopus. MMHHH!!!

Sunday Peter had planned surprise day for me. We started our morning having a nice brunch at a Mexican restaurant in Old Town. Then we went to the winter farmer's market which they hold at Congress Theatre. Peter had 5 recipes he had chosen and we spent most of day gathering ingredients. The highlight of our meal that evening were the wine poached pears with nut encrusted brie cheese.





The rest of the week was mostly spent working ...blah ...I know. I will have more to share later this week.
