Labor Day Staycation

I absolutely love a good "staycation."  In my mind, I need "a special reason" to splurge on some good food and relaxation.  Well, Labor Day is as good a reason as any, I suppose.  So I took in dinner at Bite Cafe.  Bite Cafe never ceases to amaze me.  The service is always fantastic and the food is always so good you can't help but think about what you will order "next time" before you pay your check!  On this visit, I indulged in the famous fried chicken.  Absolutely magnificent.  Coffee at The Field Museum (after taking in Genghis Khan) is something I never tire of . . . sitting in the hall of such a magnificent structure . . . it's just so cool.  I never realized how spectacular the jewelry selection is in the main gift shop.  I spent an equal amount of time in the shop (needed some birthday gifts) as I did the Genghis Khan exhibit.  Sunday was spent at church and catching up with friends over brunch.  It was perfect.  And what is a staycation without a long(ish) bike ride?  I hit the Lakefront Trail on Monday morning for exercise (and a view).  What more can a girl ask for other than good food, good friends (including a significant husband), and some good (healthy) activities?
