A brush with fame
On Tuesday night we had a girls night out at Piece in Bucktown. It was great to see the girls and get caught up. With my travels, it’s been a while since I’ve seen most of the ladies and it’s the first opportunity they’ve had to see the ever growing “bump”.
When Heather, Alison and I arrived at our table (after a brief stop a few doors down at Belly Dance and another stop for a pre-dinner dessert at Sweet Thang – so good!) we had no idea that we were sitting next to Piece owner, Cheap Trick guitarist and Rockford native Rick Nielsen. I noticed he ordered something along the lines of a meat lovers, while us ladies opted for a white pizza with basil. It was excellent!
On an unrelated note, I stopped at Belly Dance to purchase a Bella Band. This is the worlds greatest invention for the pregnant woman. Not only does it allow you to wear your old clothes longer, but it prevents maternity pants from falling down. I’ve been having a serious problem with my maternity pants falling down and the band is a lifesaver.
