Cooper took the red-eye from Seattle to Chicago. She was in town for less than 48 hours but we fit more in to this weekend than some people do in a week. We went down to HOT CHOCOLATE, a restaurant on Damen Ave. specializing in, yes, hot chocolate. I think i found out the secret ingredients: milk, dark chocolate, and dreams. I got dark chocolate hot chocolate, Cooper got white mint chocolate hot chocolate, and Nina got milk chocolate with hot fudge. . . seriously.
Chicago has thousands of people residing in it and some how its gets smaller everyday. Our waitress at hot chocolate went to Mizzou. She was super nice and when we left she gave us a bag of cookies and sweets to take home. I love random acts of kindness, it made our day.
So clearly we had enough energy for the rest of the day after guzzling down the melted chocolate bars. We shopped, we explored, we took on Chicago. I have the best friends in the world. With my lovely roommate Nina and my best friend Coop, in tow, we finished out week 3 in the big city.
