We went to hear Mary Fahl in concert at SPACE one night. One of the best voices I know. She sang a variety of her own and others' songs including terrific covers of Neil Young, Pink Floyd, and the Rolling Stones. She also had some fun anecdotes along the way. Afterward we had a late evening meal at one of the few remaining "open 24 hour" restaurants in the hood.
Along the way, my Rx has been wandering around the Chicago USPS for six full days with no actual forward movement. Luckily I won't die without the medication today but it sure would be nice to have more confidence in the post office being able to deliver packages in a more timely manner. Since this happened the last time the medication was refilled as well, it further erodes any belief in the efficiency of the organization. Clearly it's not arriving today since it hasn't even been marked "out for delivery." (Heavy sigh!)
I feel like if they made these in turquoise and fuchsia they would look less like medieval torture devices and more patient friendly.

Next up was Osteria Langhe. As good as it always has been. Thanks for a fun evening Aldo & Anthony The rabbit is still my favorite in Chicago, and one can never go wrong with Plin. Menu items marked. Wine was from the cellar and showed very well. We definitely will get back later this summer, as the menu changes next week. #favorite
Then next - we met up with Todd & Evie. for dinner at Obelix. We were last together in Barcelona in mid April. Always fun company and the food was good as well. First rate service from Julietta. Started with an 09 Pol Roger and went from there. My favorite dishes tonight were the ramp tart and the steak tartare.
So we are about to begin Memorial Day weekend. It's Friday now an many have already begun their holiday weekend (Bridge in Spain) so we are meeting up with Frank tonight to try a new place - Laotian. Will be back with a further post on the holiday activities....
