On Saturday morning, walking Mobi around to do her business, the temps were 5 below, not including wind chill (!) No, we did not go to Chicago to freeze our *&#@s off; we did have a purpose to the trip. We went to Chicago to see Natasha, who I work with in the summer in Spain. These past few months, she's been working as an Infinity product specialist at car shows around the country. And here she is... the lovely, the talented, Ms. Natasha informing the public of Infinity's concept car:

We had a lot of fun in Chicago- it's so nice to get away to somewhere more bustling, more interesting, more diverse than our little Winona. We did a little window shopping on Magnificent Mile, ate some great food and did a little dancing as well. Dinner the first night was at Le Colonial, a French-Vietnamese restaurant beautifully decorated with potted palms, chandeliers, and wood trim. The second night we had Asian again, at Big Bowl- I had a peanut, coconut curry and Juan had a super-spicy kung pao chicken with noodles. I also tried their specialty- fresh ginger ale; I got mine with pomegranate, too. Yum, yum, yum! I looooove Vietnamese and Thai food.
