Last weekend my oldest daughter and I went to Chicago for a girls weekend! We have never done this before just the 2 of us so we shopped and we ate lots of sweet things and drank tea and walked the city and had a fabulous time just being together.
Here's our view from the hotel . .
and maybe the favorite part of the weekend was taking the brown line train all the way to the last stop to the Swedish restaurant Tre Kroner. I have blogged about my swedish heritage before but eating at this restaurant reminded me how glad I am that my mom and dad made a big deal of instilling our ancestry to me and my brothers and sisters. I know that my Uncle did the same with my cousins. My daughter picked TreKroner from the diners drive ins and dives app even though it was way far out of the city. Ok so on to the cinnamon rolls . . .
Best ever. With cardamon and lemon icing. They had a store across the street called the Sweden Shop where we picked up a few goodies to bring home.
oh and we also had a facial! Ok so it was all about tea, cinnamon rolls, yummy breakfasts, shopping and pampering! On the way home, she asked if we could go again next weekend!:)
Do you take trips with your daughters? Whats your favorite thing to do together!?
