Chicago: All Stars!
Celebrated our return to Chicago this week with a few of our favorite things:
- FIERY FOOD: Thai food at Me Dee with the stars of Anxiety Acres (Mike Ayres & Heather Rush)
- FRENZIED FUN: An NYC Midnight 48-hr screenplay contest (Deadline Sunday at 12:00am EST)
- FINE ART FRIDAY: Our friend & fave artist Danny Hein took us to a couple of art openings.
At the Packer Schopf Gallery we saw paintings & photos by mother/daughter team Ann & Maria Ponce, family members of Chicago Tonight host and local celebrity Phil Ponce. Danny is a big fan, and, when we asked for a picture, Mr. Ponce was a class act and a gentleman. Then we went to a cool eyeglasses store / gallery space in Wicker Park where we met Chicago artist Tony Fitzpatrick.
Here are some pics from our art-filled night:

I like the new design!
Hey, thanks! Jessica worked on it all weekend.
Love the new look. Your hard work paid off! (Changed your link on my blog – checking to see if it works. Yep, works…)
