I had a fabulous weekend in Chicago. A group of us from undergrad got together for T's Bachelorette Party/Wedding Shower Weekend.

I flew in to Midway (which, by the way, is so much nicer now that it's re-done) on Friday night. We had a low-key night in order to save our strength. We just chatted, had some wine, and ate some homeade guac and chips, and baked gouda prepared by T and her husband-to-be.

Starting at 3 on Saturday, we headed to another girlfriend's house for T's shower. Lots of good food and wine to be had. And lots of gifts, of course. We then went to 1154 Lill, which we had closed down for our group. It's a cute little store where you can design purses, and they make them and ship them to you. You should really check it out the next time you're in Chicago.

We then journeyed on to a sports bar-type place where we had an area blocked off. All you can drink for $25. Everyone got T a pair of underwear that she opened at the bar, and she had to guess who they were from. I got her these with a note that read, "A little bit Charlotte, and a little bit Samantha." Needless to say, she knew immediately who they were from.

Next stop was a great dance club that played all 80's music. We danced until about 2:30, and then decided it was time to head home.

It was a great weekend, and just what I needed: Some girl time. Congrats, T!!!
