...as that was what grocery stores looked like in the 1910s. Amazing how much they have changed since then! After the museum closed, we were wondering what to do so Greg suggested that we go to the casino since (being on the South Side) we were halfway there anyway. I decided that was a capital idea and we made our way down Lake Shore Drive to Hammond. We stopped at the Purple Steer restaurant for...

...the film, how cool is that??? I can't wait to get The Dark Knight on DVD! Friday we decided to to go eat at Sweet Tomatoes because Greg got a buy one get one free coupon in his e-mail. Went to the casino afterwards and Greg won $10. I lost $20 :(. We ended up staying out really late and didn't get home til almost 7 am :-O. We went back to the house and rested for a couple of hours and headed to...

... It made me happy. It made Jenn and Dave happy too : ) I really think I should get into the food service industry again, I just love making food.  Somehow during dinner the idea of us going to the casino came up and we were like, hey, let's go to the casino! So we did. We took a little road trip down to Mystic Lake and gambled the night away. I blew $20 on the nickle slots pretty quickly, Jenn and...

Here be the weekend stuffs: Thursday was lunch at our usual fave Chinese place, Wah Sun , then we ran some errands before going off to Horseshoe Casino on the bus from Harlem/Foster Plaza. We were disappointed to find out that our favorite slots had been removed in favor of newer machines, so no more Munsters slots for us (boo :P). Howeva, we have now discovered the evils of video poker, mwahahaha...

Casino sucked last nite, lost all our money after winning $30 :P. Ah well, at least we got a $5 food voucher each out of the trip. Afterwards we went to Steak n' Shake for a yummy low-fat yogurt milkshake and a steakburger for moi and chicken breast for Greg. It is nice and sunny today :D, looks like it is a balmy 18 degrees hehe so that means partay at our friend John's store . It is Horrorbles'...

... One of my Aunts is here visiting from Portugal and she came here for two days (She's here for 4 whole weeks but only spent 2 days at our house--I'll spare you all the rant). Anyway, we hit up the casino and Gillette Castle one of the days. I took a couple of photos, so I'll probably post those tomorrow. It was good times. I just hated all the driving (1 hour to Gillette Castle ... 1 hour and 15...

I hit up the Shreveport Horseshoe casino on Saturday with my friend Jen from Dallas. Here we are outside of the casino: This was my first time at a casino. I played penny and nickel slots, and came out $21 ahead. And had a blast...
