hello, fruits and vegetables

I have been MIA for two reasons:

1) we went to visit chicago last week! yay! such fun.

and

2) we just moved BACK into our apartment, and did not have the internet hooked up til now.

so now, after a week, i'm back, and i have alot to say!:)

i've shared my years in chicago with a certain person.

this girl, my big seester.

but she's moving out of Chicago.

sadness.

i don't know if visiting that sweet city will ever be the same without her there.

it was nice to do some of the things we used to do together, one more time before she leaves.

Saturday morning, we got our men and us together to check out one of the best saturday places:

the farmers market.

i love coming to the market. it's one of the biggest and best i've ever been to.

ilene and i were roommates last year, and would often wake up on a saturday morning and enjoy free samples, pretty flowers, and the flood of people searching for those perfect fruits and vegetables.

and after looking at food, we went to the Original Pancake House to eat some food.

mmmm.....

it was really as delicious as it looks.

what a perfect saturday morning.
