Lazy Thanksgiving

We spent the holiday in Chicago with Ben's family, eating and laying around not doing anything more exerting than going to the movies. I took today off work to hang out with my Chicago friend, and we went to Eataly because we love eating and heard they had a Nutella restaurant. That part did not disappoint:
Yum, Nutella on fancy brioche!
The rest of Eataly was a bit nuts, though. It made Whole Foods look like one of those crappy grocery stores that's also a gas station. Check out their "bulk foods" section:
Yes, those are precious little wicker baskets filled with not-actually-that-much grain/beans each. And yes, that is popcorn for $7 per pound you are seeing in the front there.
SEVEN DOLLARS A POUND.
Tomorrow we go to San Francisco for more friend-visiting and a wedding this weekend - it's also probably the only other place in the world where you can find $7/lb popcorn.
