Report - Oakbrook Christmas Market

Went to the Christmasmarket at Oakbrook tonight. It's so rinky-dinky. About 12 huts scattered in front of Macy's and Crate and Barrel area. Most of the huts were from neighboring states. There were only a couple from Germany, or so their sign says. Enjoyed a kinderpunch with Tyler in the heated tent where 4 guys were playing their wind instruments. Also, had a currywurst mit currycatsup and broetchen. No machine to cut up the wurst. They did it by hand - guess you have to be in Germany for that. As we left, I bought a small bag of sugared almonds from the market. I almost ate half the bag before we got home. Sam stopped inside Bailey Banks and Biddle and looked at a ruby and diamond ring. The sales lady wrote the info on a card since they have a 15% off sale tomorrow - like I can buy that tomorrow....LOL
