Chicago
January 5, 2007
I am a Chicago girl at heart. I love Chicago. My favorite things to do include:
ΓΆβ?¬ΒΆ Shopping! I love the Marshall Fields on State Street. It’s huge! Michigan Avenue is beautiful and has tons of shopping too.
ΓΆβ?¬ΒΆ Lincoln Park: There’s the lake, there’s the zoo. There’s great restaurants. If you go to the zoo, please give my regards to the polar bears.
ΓΆβ?¬ΒΆ Navy Pier: While I’ve never been on the ferris wheel, it is on my to-do list. Navy Pier was revamped when I was in high school, so it’s sort of a new attraction for me.
ΓΆβ?¬ΒΆ Boat tours: I love Wendella Boats. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been on them. Wendella Boats give architectural tours of the city, starting on the Chicago River, and then going through the locks to Lake Michigan.
ΓΆβ?¬ΒΆ Wrigley Field: I saved the best for last. I grew up in the friendly confines. I am and will always be a Cubs fan. Seeing a ball game at Wrigley Field is an experience I highly recommend.

About Me
Welcome to my spot on the web where I talk about needlework, crafts, and [many] other random things.
A few tidbits about me: I met my husband in college, flirting over tuba letters in the Penn Band. Our dog, CJ, and our cat, Sabrina, round out our family. I'm a sewist, knitter and needlepointer, and an occasional scrapbooker. I love organizing, reading, making jewelry, and hiking. A Chicago girl at heart, I am an avid follower the Cubs, Bears, and Blackhawks.
You can email me at mlynapier [at] pobox [dot] com. Thank you for stopping by!
My Etsy Shop
A place for me to sell my handmade goods. My style? It's fun and funky with a hint of romance.
