Five Things

{Candy Corn Oreos – so bad, that they’re kind of good}

This morning I leave for Chicago for tomorrow’s book signing party and I can’t wait. I love visiting new cities and the weather is supposed to be seriously brisk – with a chance of rain – and I couldn’t be happier. I’m bringing along some of my colder weather clothes and am unreasonably excited about trying out deep dish pizza for the first time. Have a great weekend!

    I was SO tempted to buy those candy corn oreos at the grocery store yesterday but my better judgement (unfortunately) won out. But now that I know they have your seal of approval….

    :)

    Have fun in Chicago!

    Cool! I love Rummikub! My mom, and I play Rummikub a lot and we especially play it a lot with my aunt when she comes to town. It’s a fun game! I’m not sure if I’d like the Candy Corn Oreo’s. I love Oreo’s and I love candy corn, but together I think they may be too icky sweet. I think the candy corn would be better on the chocolate ones maybe. I don’t know, they are definitely interesting though. Hope you have fun in Chicago. It is a great city. If the traffic wasn’t so horrible and the crime rate wasn’t so high I wouldn’t mind living there.

    Well, have a great weekend!

    dying to know where your thin gold bracelet’s from!!

    Stop at a Garrett Popcorn Shop! The caramel and cheese flavors go very well together.

    The best deep dish in Chicago is at Pizzano’s. And be sure to stop by Florodora on Dearborn and Van Buren for some amazing shopping. I’m so jealous you’ll be in Chicago, it’s my favorite city.
