it's good to be back

Flurry of activity since I've been back:
Ate at Ken Kee's, Medici and The Original Pancake House
Cleaned out my kitchen... interesting biodiversity discovered after 3 months
Visited Fox and Obel (now my favourite supermarket EVER) and found ladyfingers for tiramisu :D

The sheer number of freshies is scary... brought some of them to Grand Lux Cafe and Linens 'n Things... we looked like a bleddy Chinese tour group!

Also, Yanying is in town and I brought her downtown and on the architectural cruise :)

This is for Andy I-should-be-in-Chicago Tan... some changes happening downtown! Check out the Trump Tower coming up... also the Wrigley Building clock hands being fixed at last.
