photos during the Coronovirus epidemic
With the Coronovirus raging on, I've done some exploring around the city to beat the ennui and boredom I have been feeling the past 9 months. From Molly's Cupcake, which won the cupcake war on the Food Network, in the South Loop to a beautiful dog park on Michigan and 14th Ave. to a colorful outside patio bar (Flo & Santos) on South Wabash to a random trip to IKEA and the forest preserves in Schaumberg, yours truly has done some ambulating around the streets of Chicago. I also treated myself to some take-out dim-sum from Minghin, a Michelin restaurant in the South Loop and to some mango and lychee and honeydew bubble tea from the same place (talk about double-fisting :) Although it wasn't the same as eating in at the restaurant with the beautiful decors and ambiance, I loved the siumai, the shrimp crepes, the egg custard tarts, and the BBQ pork buns that transported me to the fares of Hong Kong.

The power of habits
I've been racking up some habits lately during the Coronovirus epidemic, one of them being watching and gorging on Netflix -- the movies I've been meaning to watch and the new shows that have recently come out ("Tiny Pretty Things," anyone?). With my mind numb from about three hours of digesting Netflix shows, I sit down in front of my computer today and as I am filled with part-ennui, excitement, uncertainty, tiredness, and ambivalence, I look to 2021 and reflect back upon this past year.
