Days 2 and 3

The remainder of my Valentine's weekend with Mom was great. It was a near perfect weekend-it all went smooth and we did nearly everything we planned. Yesterday we hit Old Orchard mall, ate at Portillos (Mom's favorite restaurant), ate at Spacca Napoli, then headed downtown for Confessions with Kerry and Jenn. Today we had breakfast at Icosium, the crepe place in Andersonville, then we shopped at Lincoln Square (Urban General Store, Timeless Toys for Payton, the Chopping Block) and last of all ate again at Five Guys. The hamburgers were excellent (no fillers people) and made me miss summertime and outdoor grilling. The fries are actually made there from potatoes and there is a sign indicating where the potatoes that day had come from-thanks Idaho. The place was packed tho and a little disorganized, the bags of peanuts or potatoes were suppose to mark the path to the counter but didn't work out so well. Simple menu; big hamburger, little hamburger, small or large fries, or hotdog and drink. Makes me think of the In and Out Burger in Las Vegas. Definitely going back.
