On Sunday we bid Amy goodbye (Trent stayed until Monday due to his school schedule). We enjoyed lunch at neighborhood bar O'Donovan's with friends Tom & Christa & Tobin before saying our temporary farewells. We proceeded to Lincoln Park to drop off our six bottles of wine worth cellaring to Stephanie's high school friend Loong, a wine collector who already rents wine storage space with a downtown merchant. From there to Old Town to return a crock pot used at our Wine Extravaganza and to bid goodbye to friends Brad & Beth. From there back to Lincoln Park to say goodbye to friends Matt & Melissa & Tom, partaking in their usual NFL Sunday Funday party at a bar, Steph consuming one beer and Todd one beer and one Jaeger Bomb.
Finally we proceeded with Trent and Gayle to reservations for dinner at Lincoln Square's excellent Bistro Campagne for an absolutely A+ dining experience. They were firing on all cylinders with the classic steak frites, cassoulet and roasted chicken. Steph and I brought two bottles of wine that didn't make it to Loong's cellar, a 2000 Bordeaux and 1999 Burgundy that were both superb. We collapsed into bed exhausted to end the week.
