This weekend we are in Chicago visiting our friends Barabara & Dan. We had several nice treats while here:
1 - a stay at the beautiful Fours Seasons Hotel
2 - dinner at NoMi
3 - tickets to the Bears football game
4 - an introduction to a new restaurant (to us) called Bin 36
5 - the wonderful Hart Davis Hart wine auction!
After all of that (in just 2 days!) we were headed to Dan and Barbara's new home in Orland Park and decided to stop off at Binny's, a liquor "super store" we like to frequent because of both the great prices AND the great selections.
While we were browsing through the single malts for some Auchentoshin, which I hadn't been able to find since our trip to Scotland, we came across the Bruichladdich special gift packaging which we had done with our very hands while at the Academy there in September! Nice to see the results of our hard work on the shelves in Chicagoland!
