Macaroons

A fun evening of baking


Dinner with the family



Dinner at Yun's in Illinois 

Orchid show

JWith air temperatures at a high of 15, it was a perfect day to go to the Chicago Botanical Gardens for an orchid show.  Walking around the tropical greenhouses warmed us up.

Chicago

Had 1-2 inches of snow in Ohio. Then had a lake affect squall on the Indiana Illinois border, but made it safely to Chicago.  Had dinner with the family.  It was so cold that it was hard to keep the windows defrosted.  Had to refill the washer fluid (I think it froze a few times).  But it wasn't a bad drive.

On the road again, packing for a 20 day road trip to Wisconsin.
