orange, wedding dresses and air show

This weekend Diane and went down to Chicago for brunch, and then to look at wedding dresses for her. I had a blast. First we had frushi at Orange...which I have been wanting to try for a long time, it's basically fruit sushi, and they have different things depending on the day. Also, we shared the pancake flight which is 4 different types of silver dollar pancakes with a geographic theme. Saturday's theme was French, so we had chocolate ganache pancakes with chocolate whipped cream, pancakes with butter rum syrup, pancakes with strawberries and ricotta, and my favorite, the apple pancakes with an apple cider reduction.
So tasty! We walked down to the water afterwards to watch the air show, and met a cute puppy, prudence, and saw some crazy planes.
Finally we made it to the boutique on oak street where Diane tried on several gorgeous wedding dresses. It was a great day.
