I've had another eventful weekend. This past week, I made Alfajores. It is a Peruvian Cookie I had the pleasure of tasting at Erika's Baby Shower. It is two shortbread like cookies made with flour or corn starch filled with dulce de leche. I made them in the shape of heart for Valentine's Day.
We went to Gino's East and tried their deep dish pizza on Valentine's Day. I had a Groupon so it was a great deal to check out another deep dish establishment. We went nice and early, like around 5 pm, and didn't wait. Usually if you dine around primetime it is about a one and a half to two hour wait. After our heavy dinner, we walked it off along Michigan Ave.
Saturday was our day of running errands and we also checked out a massage place, Relax Feet. They were okay, too much shiatsu going on for me though. I'll be checking out other places before returning there. It was a good way to end a day of running errands.
Today, we went to a volunteer expo. It was located at one of the museums. That was pretty cool because you got to see things as you are checking out volunteer opportunities. I am thinking I might volunteer at the Alder Planetarium. I also have an apprenticeship starting this week to teach middle schoolers.
