Sensory overload

When in NYC, eat pizza!

Let the madness begin :)

Saturday night snoring

Deep Dish Delish

Over the holidays we took a night downtown and David got his first taste of Deep Dish. We headed to the original Gino's East and settled in. David made sure to leave his mark on the place. Thank goodness the placemats had activities to entertain him since it took a good 45 min for our pizza to show up. Meanwhile, i enjoyed a tasty salad. Eventually the pizza showed up in all its meaty and cheesy gloriousness. We finished off the night with a walk over to the magnificent mile and enjoyed the lights and displays as we headed back to our hotel.

Christmas napping

It's been a long day

Tighthead

We added a new brewery to our list of visited: Tighthead brewery in Mundelein IL. It's a nice little brewery where the owners are living the dream - craft brewers that gave up corporate America and opened up a brewery of their own.

Highlights include a seasonal sweet potato beer, "we be yammin'" and dog treats made from spent grains with all donations going to the Save-a-pet shelter :)

A worthy stop while in the greater Fox Lake Area :)
