Mrs. Craver and I double-dated last Sunday. This was all a gift from the other couple. After church, we dined at the Olive Garden in Bolingbrook. I ordered the
Venetian Apricot Chicken. That tasted so amazing, it should be on your bucket list!
.
Then we drove into downtown Chicago to see
The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey at the
Provision Theater. It was a feel-good event, for sure!
.
Finally, we parked close to Daley Plaza and walked through the crowded, chilly streets for an outdoor display called
Christkindlmarket. That's when I took out the camera and "went to town." (Yes, that pun was totally intended.)

What's in this collage? Clockwise from top left:
- the Picasso at Daley Plaza
- the Channel 2 (CBS) newsroom
- pigeons huddling around the Eternal Flame memorial
- the wonderful Mrs. Craver next to the happiest man in the world
- a peek at the Sears (Willis) Tower from the inside of the minivan
- one of my favorite landmarks--the clock at Marshal Fields (Macy's)
- an amusing, blue, light sculpture, and
- some of the German crafts from Christkindl Market
