Because It's Kaitlyn's Birthday Today!


Thanks to HowAboutWe, my husband and I were able to enjoy a weeknight date in the city as an early birthday treat. We dined at The Bedford in Wicker Park which is inspired by the supper club experience of a bygone era. As the former Home Bank and Trust Company building, it was a very cool experience to sit in an old vault where each wall is still adorned with copper safety deposit boxes.

We shared a bottle of Prosecco and I enjoyed a fantastic sweet potato gnocchi dish (complete with kale and toasted pumpkin seeds!) Of course we topped the night off with dessert and I have 3 words for you – salted caramal marshmallow. Need I say more?

Yes, it's official -- I can't stop wearing these earrings! May need to get them in green too...
PS Shoutout to Jess+Jill for turning me on to HowAboutWe – whether you’re single or attached, it’s a great way to find fun new date ideas (and if you sign up for a membership, you will get a credit to use on the site!) 

Have you tried the Bedford? The ambiance is definitely worth the trip.

Stay tuned for more birthday celebration photos next week...
 (and thank you in advance to my family and  friends for always making it special!)
