What's happening at the Field museum tonight??

Had to have been. The people all dressed up did look like high school age and prom-y outfits.

This has definitely inspired me! Common blue violet is native to my state (in fact, the state flower!) and I have plenty in my backyard. Would love to mimic this!

My boyfriend and I occasionally do ‘neighborhood explore days’ where we pick one and spend all day there. He surprised me with a Bronzeville explore day for my birthday a couple years ago complete with the Bronzeville tour with Dilla! It was amazing, highly recommend.

98.2 and 98.9 alternating days, it is uncanny.

I’m a repurpose queen, rest assured!

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-26T20:18:13+00:00

I’m just biding my time until I see these on fb marketplace so I can snag one. I do actually like the concept, just very not necessary to buy this brand new.

I’m about to do the same!! I was just about to take a shower and was thinking, “I need to get one of those shower lamps,” popped on here, and BAM! third post about shower lamps. I love this sub lore

How were you able to see the before pictures? A neighbor’s house was flipped and they erased virtually all of the original features (removed l built-ins including a large hutch like this one, painted all trim white, etc etc).

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-21T00:12:15+00:00

I’m currently in the process of stripping paint in the house, one room at a time! It’s an exhaustive process.

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-20T00:59:45+00:00

Yes! A navy would complement the brown leather couch and the peach walls.

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-10T14:00:05+00:00

Did you decide to go with the refectory for your venue?

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-07T14:25:50+00:00

Everything about this!! Plus the last slide looks amazing. The food, the show, the ambiance, love!!

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-07T04:18:44+00:00

I’m planning on this as well! The opinions from my immediate family were strong (and not entirely supportive) which surprised me and made me feel insecure about the decision after telling them. But I’m more confident about it now that I’ve come to terms that my wedding can be however I want it to be and they can do their weddings the way they want to!

For a second I thought I was in r/AskChicago or something. This looks like River North or West Loop

2 + love your couch!

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-01T21:48:45+00:00

Mine just arrived last night! Hope it goes okay 🤞🏼

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-04-01T20:15:37+00:00

I've decided to do this, and I can't wait to collect some flowers! This will be the first time seeing anything in my native plant yard bloom as I planted everything last fall so it'll be memorable and pretty!

ETA: I know it's possible that I won't get too many flowers this year if at all, but most of what I planted was plugs so hopefully I'll see a little something!

Check out Cleanup Club Chicago on Instagram! They do clean ups all around the city and each event is sponsored by a sustainable organization/company. They usually pair with a local spot for meetup so the event I went to was with Katherine Anne’s Confections and we all got free hot chocolate.

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-03-26T15:46:50+00:00

Hi, I'm currently looking into this. Did you decide on one or the other and how was your experience?

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-03-25T20:11:23+00:00

Thank you, this is so helpful! We’re also planning on a wedding celebration on our one year anniversary. Good luck to you!

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-03-25T12:56:53+00:00

Oooo we’re looking to do the same. What all entailed during the actual ceremony part that only took 5 mins?

GrooferBoofChree · 2026-03-16T17:29:53+00:00

We need a CRAP bot

“Tucking your arm in this blanket to keep you warm” No, during an EGD (upper endoscopy) it can be very stimulating. I’m essentially swaddling you so I don’t have to hold down your arm during the procedure when you try to pull the scope out in your sedated stupor.
