My cousin Shannon Kelly hosted Joe, John and I in downtown Chicago, cooking us a fabulous vegan meal and even making us breakfast smoothies. Mike and Chelsea came over too as well as two friends from West Point to round out our group.
Even though the Cubbies lost that day, we went out to a bar to watch the Hawks game after dinner. The Hawks won in double overtime and there was no better place to watch them clinch a spot in the Stanley Cup finals than McFadden's Irish sports bar. We ran into even more friends at McFadden's and hung around for a few hours after the game enjoying Chicago's nightlife. Once again, it was the people we spent time with rather than the location or tourist attractions that made our day and night so great.
Hope you copied the receipt from Shannon. The dinner looked great.
