How great the summer is in Chicago. I have been enjoying things which happen around the city, in particular the concerts in Millennium Park. My friend, Jin who visited me from San Diego all of last week, and I sat on the grass listening beautiful classical music every other day. The sound was so awesome I can't describe it with any words! We couldn't believe how the sound was so deep and full outside. By the way, every concert was FREE. I wish Mike could been here to enjoy all of this with me.

I am in love with all of these old stuff...

I am completely looking forward to having my friend in Chicago next Sunday. My heart is going pitter-patter! I have already finished making our To-Do list. :D We can chat all day at the cozy cafe and hang out on the grass in the park drinking wine with cheese which we will have to hide in the park. We also will cook all sorts of gourmet Korean food from scratch and go to Chicago's summer festivals. I am just so happy to make these plans. I feel like I am preparing for a big exciting trip. This is gonna be my summer vacation, this means I have to work so hard during next week before she comes. Worthy sacrifice! :)

This is Mike's baked eggs, adapted from Mark Bittman's recipe. It was too handsome to eat. Needless to say, it was very yummy! I love how Mike cooks in his way and I am very glad to have him around...
