the cureall

this winter has really gotten to me, like way more than last winter. i feel like the cold and gloom are never ending. and i just found out that i can't go on maternity leave as soon as i'd hoped to. so obviously, the best cure for all of this is food + friends. chicago is a food mecca, so why not take advantage?

this weekend, we tasted:
papousas
tapas (favorite: bacon wrapped dates)
paella
homemade guac made by nate



i also made nate be my model -- while he was reading up on jimmer facts i'm sure. i'm trying to figure out a new lens well enough to take good pictures of baby girl. i have a long way to go, but it's fun to mess around.
