The Art Institute

So as you know, I went to The Art Institute this weekend. It was the perfect day for some inside activity with a beautiful weather report of 40 degrees and rain. So along with the entire city of Chicago, we went to the museum.
At your requests… here are some of my favorite pieces in the new modern wing:

Franz Kline

One of the only Cy Twomblys left from the opening exhibit

Light installation in front of Millenium Park on a disgusting Chicago day.

You better all really love this one, because I got in trouble for taking this picture! 
We also ate at Terzo Piano, the new restaurant in the Modern Wing and it was unbelievable. I had a FEAST for lunch, so unnecessary. Thank you to City Girl Chicago for the rave review that pushed me to try it!

And Things That Sparkle now has a Facebook page, come “like” us! 

Oh hello Friday, I LOVE you!

I want to apologize. I have been totally MIA from all of your lovely blogs the past two weeks. I’ve been running around with my head cut off, but now, I have 2 weeks off!
This weekend I plan on…
Celebrating Easter with my favorite second family
Wandering around the modern wing at The Art Institute and having lunch at their restaurant (that I’ve been hearing amazing things about)
Snuggling a lot with this guy
And the rest of the time, I’ll be doing a lot of this
What are your plans this weekend??
