Second Night, Second City!


Portillo's was our dinner goal
The place sure as hell had enough food!
William, being sharp, has relatives stashed across the country. Earlier today he contacted his may-as-well-be-his-sibling girlie cousin Lynette. So on leaving the museum, we picked up the very pregnant Lynette, who had just completed a stellar day at work. Earlier today her co-workers threw her a Baby Shower. She was loaded down with shopping bags full of new-baby goodies. She recommend a nice spot for us to enjoy dinner together and we were OFF to din-din!
Zipping by the streets of Chicago by night...
Hey, there's one of these in Sacramento too!

Lynette & Portillo's was like WELCOME TO FOOD LAND! 
Think they have enough decor there Skippy?
Lynette and William - Cousins!
A Chicago style feast was ON. Chicago hotdogs which is a hot dog on a poppy seed bun and slathered with mustard, relish, freshly chopped onions, sliced red ripe tomatoes, kosher pickle and sport peppers. Is your stomach aching yet? Mine was! OK, not so, I had the HUMONGOUS Chicken Pecan Salad and fed my hot dog to everyone else because my old gut can't handle that 'stuff' any longer. Smelt good though!

After our eat-a-thon, we dropped Lynette off at the train station. Enjoyed meeting her & wish her hubby'd been able to join us. William says Lynette is the sibling/sister he never had, which is so sweet!

So it was getting late but we were not done by a long shot. William found something to occupy us with - SECOND CITY! I've heard about Second City for decades and it was a total hoot to get to attend it and see the crown jewel of improvisational theater. We laughed our arses off and there are plenty of side stories but I'll let you down easy here - no photos, no tales. Sorry. Try again tomorrow.

Where are the photos? You tell me! I took lots and lots of photos with my iPhone, and although I've erased nothing, I can't find them. Nope. The pix aren't stuffed into the wrong directory, they just seemed to disappear. Chicago must be haunted, damn it! Really... Oh well.

UPDATE:  Here's who Lynette snuck into Portellos under the ultimate hidden packaging: The new princess is aptly called 'Leia'. She is a darling little princess...
