Friday Favorites.

Midterms are over!!!

1.  My parents.  Yes, they get two weeks in a row of being a Friday Favorite.  We had such a great time last weekend when they were in town.  We ate a lot of yummy food, drank a lot of fabulous wine and squeezed in a few touristy things along the way.  We hit up Shedd Aquarium and caught an architectural boat tour.

Before the 4D show at the aquarium.  We bought the tickets online which was genius, but we didn't pay attention to the 4D show we picked...we saw Dora the Explorer.  It was awesome.

2.  Two Mothers Foods.  I had lunch today at this little gem in Naperville, IL.  Think of it as your mom or grandma making you a yummy home-cooked meal and all of the ingredients are local and organic.  I had an amazing goulash, quinoa and green salad and a black bean brownie.  It was probably the most amazing lunch I have ever had.  I was also checking them out for a potential catering opportunity as I'm in charge of food for an upcoming conference at school.  With amazing food and amazing standards, they are my top choice!

3.  Ghiradelli Intense Dark Sea Salt Soiree.  Yes, it's true.  I've found another chocolate to blog about.  The name pretty much says it all.  My next Wellness Wednesday topic might have to be on research about the benefits of eating chocolate.  Again, big time miracle I don't weigh 500 pounds.
