New job, midwest travel

Before the holiday break I accepted a role at Granular, a farm management SAAS company. I will be working on similar infrastructure automation tasks as my previous roles, but with more cutting edge tech. I gave notice at HotSchedules today; my last day will be some time next week. I start at Granular on Jan 14, and will be visiting their HQ in Des Moines the week of Jan 28, with a possible detour to Chicago the weekend before or after. Any friends in Des Moines or Chicago, hit me up if you want to hang out, or even just to recommend things to see or do or places to eat or stay.

I'm not in Chicago, and haven't been in a long, long while. But back in the day, whenever I was out there, I'd make the pilgrimage way out to the burbs to have breakfast at Le Peep Cafe.

Maria's Mexican Restaurant in Rosemont was also good.

If flying out of O'Hare, consider giving some love to Stefani's Tuscany Café in Terminal B: they once mailed me my purse, bless them. Second-day air, no less, which cost more than the coffee I got there.
