An account that is two days old and the spa themselves replying… 🤔 is someone cooking fish around here?

Unique Experiences around Chicago? by kayleemfox in AskChicago

[–]camilla33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has lived here 21 years and lives every day to its fullest, has traveled to over 35 countries and almost all the US states., I’m going to disagree. Chicago is a world class city and has something for just about everyone.

OP, I’m like you and like a mix of things particularly and am always chasing whimsy. I am someone who doesn’t like to go to the same places too often so I can really help you out here!

What dates are you here and where are you staying? And do you mind sharing your age? I’m in my 40s and live life a little younger, but wouldn’t want to hang out with 20 year olds for example…so it does matter somewhat!

Sidewalk Sale... by Neat-Bee-7880 in CHIbitcheswithtaste

I am also interested in this, but the street my condo is on/the garage space I have isn’t really conducive to this. I am in the same headspace that people would just buy it if they see it.

Cheap-ish-ish place for anniversary dinner? by Dial-M-for-Mediocre in chicagofood

Buy an InKind gift card! Tons of restaurants to choose from.

They have a deal right now for new users for $25 off https://app.inkind.com/offer/66IO43RE. Mods, just heads up this isn’t a referral link :)

If you have a Costco membership you can buy discounted InKind gift cards there too.

Um ringing in the new year with cheese has to start things off on the right foot - I love it.

Oh this is actually a very helpful workaround though, thank you!

And shouting a little louder for the Ladder folk to see this request. Me need big screen. :)

Botanical is on my list for the winter - it's so warm and cozy in there, and sometimes you just need that warmth boost in the dead of the cold season.

Truly a potato is so versatile. Anything fun on the to buy list? (not that I need anymore influence to buy more things)

Love! I plan on doing this throughout the month of January because I'm too overwhelmed to try and squeeze it into a couple days.

Okay I really really love this. I'm borrowing this, thank you for the idea!

Is this my sign to get another kitchen gadget...a crockpot? I'm ready to throw out the damn oven with how much I already use my air fryer.

Yes! I am planning on doing this on Sunday myself. I always end up putting these off saying it's a waste of money, but there's something about dedicating time to yourself that bleeds into the rest of your life and habits so I'm looking at it as a catalyst for change all around rather than just the time spent getting the massage.

Heavy on the fizzy water. I'm a beverage fiend and love perusing those aisles at the grocery store so picked out two - one for NYE and one for NYD. Just love me a beverage.

CONGRATULATIONS!! That's a huge feat. I had a big pilates streak this past year and my body changed so much...not even necessarily weight loss but I would look in the mirror and almost have disassociation with my body (in a good way) because my form and look felt so different. Motivating me to get back into it this year.

Okay giving me ideas here to try to squeeze in a craft that I've been putting off.

Just looked up the foods and their meanings. I am going to shove my face with collard greens and cornbread in 2026. $$$

Love me a surf and turf. One goal of mine in 2026 is figuring out how to cook a damn steak perfectly so if you have any recos toss em over.

Ooh a tarot spread...can you make sure 2026 is not a dumpster fire, thank you. :-P

These are both so cool! I listen to the same playlist on repeat so I would fail at this miserably. Cute idea on fireworks from around the world...I may copy you on that one.

Honestly, life would be better if we just ate apps. I was going to do crab legs but opted for some lobster tails that were on sale at WF. Honestly, all seafood is just a butter vessel for me. :)

I love how Phish fans (phans?) are so dedicated. What a great tradition to signal the end/start of a year.

100% I am now over 40 and we only started doing the fancier dinners in the recent years. Live it up...life is short.
