The Sweet Life of Travel and High School Sports

This is the cutest Christmas store. Have a little Christmas drink, either Cranapple Punch or Apple Cider, while you are there. Gets you in the Christmas mood. Even saw a sign of Chase when leaving the store.

Took another walk while I was waiting for my sports team and I am so glad I stopped here. I got a variety of gummy bears(Mango, Pineapple, Watermelon and Strawberry Banana) and 2 Chocs N Boxes Bonbons ( Kiwi Coconut and Lemon with Strawberry compote). Everything was very delicious! Definitely try this unique candy concept.

The empanadas are delicious. If you are ever in the area you must try. I had the guava and cheese.

The cold is not going to stop me from getting my treats. -1 degrees and only .3 miles away from high school where I brought Boys Wrestling.

Last work trip of the year: Girls Bowling at Lakes Bowl.

First place I went as out of wings so ventured to this awesome place. I asked how big these fries were and was told it was a decent portion. Definitely no joke!

Highly recommended this establishment and the staff!

Come and check this place out. Today’s special is get this amazing cup, which I believe is a 20oz., free with any drink purchase (while supplies last) Today’s choice was Lotta Love Latte which is white chocolate mocha and strawberry. Biggby Coffee - 2168 Randall Road, Carpentersville IL 60110

These donuts are AMAZING! Definitely worth the trip from Chicago!

Smoothie bowl in the cutest bowls ever! The staff is the best and everything here is delicious

Back at those early trips this time for Girls Wrestling. Here in Oak Park since 7 a.m. Had to stop here and get my treats! Amazing treats! Came here one year ago for a trip with Boys Wrestling. You must try this shop! Amazing staff and cute little cafe!

Also had to check this place out because you know how I love my sweets! The churros are just the right size. Served warm they are delicious, got a caramel and a chocolate one.
