Ella in her grandmother's arms looking at the great Christmas tree in the Walnut Room at the Marshall Field's on State Street in Chicago.
Coming to this store and the walnut room is a family tradition that goes back to when my father was a child. While we don't go every year it's always something special about it when we get there.

"Meet me under the Field's clock." This building, and its signature clocks, have been landmarks on State Street since the early part of the last century.
Marshall Field State St. Chicago - Bill can be seen sitting and taking my picture (I'm standing) inside this ornament! (For those who know this figment of my past imagination - now, is it so far fetched that people could be inside a radio?)
Frango Mints arrived with the bill. Lunch was my sister's treat~ thanks, Kate, it was delicous!
"The evolution of the Walnut Room on State Street in Chicago began when a member of our millinery department brought homemade pot pies for her clients so they would not go hungry while shopping. A few years later, her pies became the central offering of the tea room. Demand called for more space, and in the late 1890s the very first restaurant in a department store was opened. The Walnut Room, the grande dame of our seventh-floor restaurants, soon grew to 17,000 square feet, with Circassian wood imported from Russia and Austrian chandeliers contributing to its elegance and comfort." ~ Marshall Field's (Now Macy's) On State Street, Chicago
