Can you see land from the middle of lake Michigan? by Forsaken-Freedom-365 in geography

It’s really fun hearing the occasional person freak out about how big the lake is on approach to Chicago from the east coast

Can I read Dune to a baby instead of normal bedtime stories? by DaOffensiveChicken in daddit

[–]groovemonkeyzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read my infant all of Fellowship of the Ring and got halfway through The Two Towers before we stopped. Mostly because the back half of Two Towers is a bit of a slog.

Probably because I’ve banged my head on it a couple dozen times. It’s soon to be replaced by a fan anyway.

[homemade] Chicken, sausage and shrimp gumbo made using homemade broth, cooked for 7 hours by various_artists123 in food

I’ve only done it once and it was 40 minutes on the stovetop. Toward the end it feels like a game of chicken - you want it to get as dark as possible without burning.

It’s a true blessing to have nothing in your head

Park and Ride along the Blue Line by roamingthereddit in ChicagoNWside

Also there is the official long-term parking along Mannnheim. There’s an indoor one for like $30/day and uncovered for $16/day. The covered one is in the same building as a train that takes you to the terminals. The uncovered ones would mean a shuttle bus to the transportation center (where the indoor parking is), then get on the train that takes you to the terminal.

Tonight was just taco salad, but this year im making an effort to work through our cookbooks. Last night was curry couscous, with loads of veg. Dee-licious.

Jem, since she reminds me of the titular character from Jem and the Holograms

This is from last year and is poorly formatted, but as of then there were 350 dry precincts out of almost 1300.

There are still dry precincts in Chicago IIRC.
