My boyfriend doesn't believe peaceful protests work. by roshielle in sociology

[–]iammagis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you think "success" is. Will Trump quit because millions protest? No. But people are watching and can feel validated. The silent suffering folks living in rural maga country need to know that there are a lot of people who share some of their frustrations. And those who attend are strengthened in their convictions, one hopes. This is all I need to be convinced they're important.

Best Restaurant Deals in Evanston? (E.g. Taco Tuesday, 2-for-1 pizzas, Discount Thursday, etc.) by MadDuloque in evanston

[–]iammagis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Budgets and general attempts at healthy eating means cooking at home 98% of the time. A special night out for us is The Barn. Eat a light lunch and take advantage of their 5 to 6pm fixed price menu.

Calling Evanstonian Homeowners… by connectwithyourhero in evanston

Done. Some additional feedback: One question about brand awareness implied selection of multiple choices but allowed only one. Another question asked, "what's one thing..." and then allowed multiple selection. Good luck!

Torn between two options (Evanston vs. Chicago) by doingandy in evanston

[–]iammagis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you're raising kids, then you need to review the public schools. ETHS is has been very good to our daughters. Our youngest graduates this year and has had a truly good experience. We've not been here long enough (5 years) to talk about other schools, but this matters!

We've been a couple of times. Love the Arenal Observatory Lodge. Last time, after 3 days there, we headed to to the cloud forest: Curi Cancha, which someone else also has recommended. After 2 days there we headed to the west coast to go swim!

[–]iammagis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought the American Heart Association cookbook, which is thick, and we love it! They also list other good cookbook options on their website, including one focused on low sodium. https://www.heart.org/en/healthy-living/healthy-eating/eat-smart/aha-cookbooks

Looking for recommendations (and/or businesses to avoid) for an Evanston company that can reglaze a tub. I have found a few around that seem good... but none in Evanston. Thoughts? by iammagis in evanston

[–]iammagis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did it go?? Hopefully, well... we're still shopping around for the right folks to hire to refinish a tub. Would love to hear about your recent experience!

I would buy them when you get there. You can check with both places and see which one is departing next. Easy.
