I Turned 50 in February!

So I turned 50 in February...
I am using that as an excuse for not posting anything in February.

We celebrated in Chicago! It was super fun.
I came across this darling little shop called P.O.S.H. !!
It was like... if I had my own shop it would totally be like a sister shop to this one! I loved it. It was filled with so many of my favorite things...

• Beautiful tea cups and pots. (I love these, even though I don't drink tea. Or what I like to call "dirt water.") But they are sooo pretty! Maybe one day I will like tea...
• Books. Lots of cookbooks and such! ❤︎
• Pretty pottery and dishes and kitchen things.
• A mix of vintage stuff.
• Things with inappropriate sayings. 
• Jewelry.
• and so much more. 

I bought The Betty Crockers Lost Recipes Cookbook, a French Love Poems book, and some other fun stuff. Check out their website and by all means if you are in Chicago you should visit!  

Brown Sugar Bakery

I had a delicious piece of cake from Brown Sugar Bakery! It was soooo yummy!

​On my actual birthday we went to the Green Mill Jazz Lounge. It is an iconic (and vintage) music venue. So cool! Great history. Good music. 

The weekend after my birthday Nicole and I went to a casino in Wisconsin. This particular casino has actual craps and roulette tables, so we like to go there... but it was so busy we didn't actually even get on a table.  ☹️

We did scout-out a couple of cute shops on the way home too. The one shop we found was in New Richmond and it was incredible! It was the most unique, creatively designed little boutique shop I have ever seen. It is called COVET. This place is filled with jewelry like you have never seen before. So unique! Great prices too. So many cute gift items and clothing for babies!  The displays were just so clever!  Even the bags are little works of art complete with origami birds! It is definitely worth checking out if you are ever in the area.

All things I love. For my birthday!

• Traveling places
• Cake
• Shopping at unique boutiques
• Good music
• Fun with my sister!

Cause now I am 50. FFFFIIIIIFFFFFTTTTYYYYY. I can say it.

I feel like fifty is trying to tell me something too. I am just not sure what it is yet.
So stay tuned.
That is all.
No vintage discoveries, or old junk to write about except for me. 
TTFN!
