Urbs in Horto 🌷

Plans may change, but Chicago is forever (Also: NYC & Boston coming up!)

May 23, 2025

I hated having to cancel on my Midwest boyfriends

My Chicago trip last week may have been cut short by a very curious cat, but I did manage to get in a bite of the best chicken sandwich (Lucy’s, preferably the one in Uptown, but the Humboldt Park location will due!), a sexy little reunion with one of my absolute favorite boys, and my first trip to the Chicago Botanic Gardens.

Can you believe it was my first time at the gardens even though I lived there for 15years? Honestly, it blew my mind, it WAY exceeded my expectations! I could spend twice as many hours there if I had the time. I want to take a bunch of my girlfriends there for a picnic next time I’m in town. Its like a magical fantasy princess world.

My baby boy Bowser is doing excellent by the way! I think it was a false alarm but I wouldn’t have been able to live with myself if I hadn’t gotten him checked out. Thank you to everyone who reached out to me about him and helped cover his ER bill. It was really scary there for a minute!

✈️ Plans Changed, I’m already back!

♥️ Chicago ◆ May 23 - 25th

Well, it looks like I lied. I have found myself back in Chicago for the second time this month. Catch me while you can and help me figure out my next visit in advance!
