Decided to go to Oak Brook today.
- Filled up with gas at Thornton's. Took the pick-up.
- Drove all the way to Oak Brook Center shopping mall.
- Went to Sur La Table. Purchased the following:
- Shun 8" chef knife
- Kyocera 3" paring knife
- Sur La Table potato masher
- Oxo "Y" veggie peeler
- Boos Block cutting board
- Went to Nando's Peri-Peri Chicken for lunch.
- Went to Barnes & Noble, bought a Schleich "Spinosaurus" dinosaur.
- Drove back home via I-88 then Rt 59 north, no stops.
- At home, made my first ever batch of hummus in the food processor using Alton Brown's "Hummus in a Hurry" recipe. It turned out very well and was fairly easy to make.
- Went to the 7:10 showing of "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" It was a rather enjoyable "B" movie about big dinosaurs eating people and each other. I bit more intelligent of a movie than I was expecting, with excellent special effects. Went with Zach, and ate popcorn and drank Cherry Coke.
- After the movie, went with Zach to "Around The Clock" for a late meal. Had the chicken fajita pita, which was very good and very filling. Saw Dino there, of course. Very nice time.
- Overall, a day of great consolation.
