in the city : heritage bicycle general store


This is our brand new favorite place for coffee in Chicago.  Nestled in a quiet neighborhood street up in the north side of the city, Heritage Bicycle General Store is a must visit, family-friendly hang out spot. Make sure you order a hazelnut latte with an almond croissant or glazed and infused donut to go with.

  7. We mainly have Starbucks around our area and I wish we had a little cafe like this nearby. I think the closest place to us to get great coffee where we can enjoy it is about half an hour away.

    Great pictures though!

  8. Heritage! We go there pretty often to refill our iced coffee growler (best invention ever) - wish we lived a little closer but we're in the West Loop, too far to make it an everyday stop. I have been seriously coveting their Daisy bike lately, though!

the birthing of alba mae

From the beginning, this pregnancy seemed so much the same, yet so distinctly different all at once. I didn't get sick, I wasn't too turned away by my favorite foods, I had occasional heartburn here and there and overall, was able to relax and enjoy the experience.  What was strange was how differently I was carrying - having been told more times than I could count that I had looked as if I had "swallowed a basketball".  I think I was persuaded a few times in my head that maybe this was  different, maybe it really was a baby boy.  Yet still, in my heart I had an overwhelming intuition I would be holding another little girl in my arms, someone so very similar to her sister yet so distinctly different all at once.
