Well….it has been kind of a long day but had quite a bit of fun….my daughter and I rode our bikes from out here in the west side of Chicago downtown to the spice shop; the last time they were in GR they brought me some great spices like Jamaican Jerk spice and one called “gateway to the north” which is a maple flavor with some kick to it. I had to buy a big bag of each since I use them on almost everything and it was only about 20 bucks for both and a new one that has lemon and lime flavor. Can’t wait to get home and cook some chicken….<\/p>\n
Then we came back here and took the train downtown and saw the end of the Blackhawk’s parade and some fireworks they had on the river on the way to the blues festival at Grant Park. Didn’t stay too long since it was really hot and we were drenched before we even got there. Plus, all the walking used new muscles that now hurt like crazy and I have blisters on my feet even with wearing my running shoes. Oh, well….going out for sushi for dinner in a few minutes and then not much else since we are all kind of worn out. Probably not more later but I promise more after I get home tomorrow evening…it’s going to be manhattans when I get back…<\/p>\n
