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.

More of our favorite recommendations, In The City.

  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!

Week 27 Update

Hello fellow internet peoples.  Decided to give a HD video update for the beginning of my third trimester.  (WE SO EXCITED!)  It was a ton of fun to make, this time we were at home in Chicago.  Erick had a bunch of lighting equipment after all the interviews he did with the chicago school councils, so before he had to ship them back we took full advantage ;)  I'm learning more about codec and h.264 and prores 422 and although it makes absolutely no sense to me, maybe it will be useful knowledge in the future.  What do I know? It was obviously a very gesture laden, emotional, 10 minute interview.  I hope you all enjoy it.  It really is longer than I expected but instead of completely chopping it up, I decided to leave it how it is.  It's pure, natural, pregnant-y goodness of brain farts, odd humor, and searching for the right words.  If you make it to the end, remind me to give you a gold star or something.  I'll do it. ** A ...

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.
