Chase is finally potty trained!Steve and I were so thrilled, we decided to
take him out for a special meal, just the three of us. We went to Lockwood
restaurant in the Palmer House Hotel in the downtown Loop area. Lockwood is
known for their kids menu, so of course, I had to check it out. The food was good,
but not worth the price.

I am big fan
of Pinkberry yogurt shop in New York and California and I have been patiently
waiting for one to appear in Chicago. The frozen yogurt is unique because it is
actually real, healthy yogurt that has been frozen, rather than sugary custard disguised
as yogurt. The best part is that my kids love it as much as they love the
unhealthy alternative. Although
Pinkberry has not made its debut, three new stores have appeared in Chicago. We
tried Starfruit in Wicker Park first.
We were immediately disappointed. The yogurt was not smooth and creamy, it was
more like a water ice. It tasted like a healthy snack. We tried Berry Chill in Streeterville next. Yum!
The yogurt was smooth, creamy and sweet. They have a copious selection of toppings
and a festive atmosphere. The last place we tried was Yoberri in Lincoln Park. The yogurt was also delicious, as good as
Berry Chill. The store is a little bare and boring, and they don't seem to want
to market or appeal to children.
I still miss
Pinkberry, but Chicago's own Berry Chill , is helping me get over it!

Highly Recommended: The yogurt was smooth,
creamy and sweet and the atmosphere was very kid-pleasing.
