Chicago is definitely one of my favorite places to visit!

On my most recent visit to see Heidi and Baby Johnny, we were able to visit a few favorites!

birthday burger

This isn't on the menu at hopdoddy, but bartender Stacia was amazing to make this "dessert" for a friend's birthday.

It's a hd bun, milkshake ice cream, chocolate and raspberry sauce and topped with whipped cream.

We weren't sure how it was going to taste, but it was really yummy. The buns at hd are kind of sweet, so it complimented the sweet items perfectly.

so I'm in Chicago (Aurora) to be exact, for my yearly visit to Heidi and John.

I've been here 3-4 times, in the summer and in the winter.

Heidi and I most definitely make a stop at Oberweis for ice cream yummers.

Yesterday's trip included a Hot Fudge Peppermint Brownie Sundae (which we shared).

It was sooooo good. And baby Trae (Heidi's due in March) most definitely enjoyed it as well.
