A Tour of my Neighborhoods....Weekend

 Sometimes it happens that I get REALLY REALLY REALLY sick of my neighborhood.  Same people, same places, same food, etc.  It can get really old.  So Friday, Erica and I ventured up to Albany Park and went for a delicious Lebanese dinner at Semiramis.
Hello Delicious!  BYOB and amazingly delicious!  Then we headed to North Center and stopped into a couple of German bars - love them!  http://www.laschetsinn.com/  and http://www.yelp.com/biz/resis-bierstube-restaurant-and-tavern-chicago

.

So much fun!
On Saturday, I headed up to Lakeview to get my friend David his sunglasses that he fell in love with while he and Ema were in Chicago. I bought him 4 pairs.  

Saturday night, Bill and I had date night and we went to Honky Tonk BBQ in Pilsen, yet another neighborhood,  and dined on BBQ in a really cool, retro-funky space.  Copper tin ceilings and all!  And, Bill's good friend Kari is the manager there, and we haven't seen her since our wedding!  It was great catching up and pigging out.

Sunday was yet another neighborhood day.  We started our day by recycling our Christmas tree in Humboldt Park

Then we made our way to the Logan Square Farmers Market and bought local farmed honey, meat, some bread, etc. Blew through $50 before the blink of an eye!
I do, however, really wish I was in Las Vegas. Our bestie neighbors Jamesy and Rachel are there with Lex.  Look at all the fun they are having. 

Sigh. I'll just chill with the Best Dog in the WORLD instead. And have a Bloody Mary.
