This week in Chicago: Pizza, power and Cubbie-coladas

…strength and lady power at the 23rd annual Black Women's Expo! The event covers everything beauty, health and wellness-related while embracing and empowering black women. The Black Women's Expo runs April 7-9, 2017 at McCormick Place.
We're laughing...

We're singing...
…GO CUBS GO! The 2016 World Series Champs return to Wrigley Field for their first home game this Monday, April 10 at 7:05 P.M. against the L.A. Dodgers. We're ready for you, Cubbies!
We're brunching...
…and boozing in Cubs fashion. Check out brunch favorites at Trader Todd's this weekend including a conch benedict as well as jerk chicken and waffles. YUM. Oh, and did we mention their Cubbie-colada ahead of the Cubs home opener this Monday? Enough said.
We're jammin'...
…to John Mayer. The blues-rock, solo-guitarist and band singer returns to the United Center for "The Search for Everything" tour this Tuesday, April 11. Get tickets here or plan to catch Mayer this summer at Wrigley Field with Dead & Company.
