Philadelphia Trip Recap - Part 2
The second part of our trip was mainly filled with eating and lounging around the hotel watching the Summer Olympics in Rio (unfortunately via NBC's terrible coverage).
Day 3
We slept in and decided we'd like to try another cheesesteak for lunch. I had surfed Instagram hashtags like #phillyfood during my trip planning and found a particularly tasty looking sandwich from a place called Cleaver's. We walked over and ordered a cheesesteak with onions and American to split with a side of waffle fries. I was so happy to find it was every bit as delicious as the picture led me to believe.

Small Crochet Chicken
As mentioned in a previous post, I'm currently working on a line of crochet animals to sell in my upcoming Etsy shop. As I'm sure anyone could predict, my first work is a small amigurumi chicken to match the medium and large/jumbo size chickens I've made in the past.
