Coming to Lakeview

I'm pretty excited for a couple openings coming late spring to Lakeview!

Go Grocer is opening it's third location, this time in Lakeview.  No, we do not need another grocery store, but this one's focus is local foods, which I'm all about.  It's like bringing the neighborhood goods more accessible.  For example, they said they'll have granola from Wicker Park's Milk and Honey.
Here's an article on the opening (although it's mostly about the owner being a bachelor). I wish I could find a different one.

Dry Hop Brewers is also opening soon.  I've been watching them work on the construction pretty much all winter as I went on lunchtime walks and tried to peak in.  Yesterday, it was open as they moved in some bigger equipment.  It looks awesome!  Now I can't wait to try!

p.s. PSA to all you Chicagoan drivers who park on the street.  Street cleaning has started again.  They don't always put signs about the cleanings up super early so you might not even know it's happening, until you go to your car and find a ticket.  Yesterday was the first day my street was cleaned and just on my block I saw SO many tickets :(
Careful out there!

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike
