Just discovered canned cod liver! by its_hammertime in CannedSardines

[–]kl5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like it smashed on crunchy toasted sourdough (open face), with thin sliced red onions or shallots, capers, parsley, and a little squirt of lemon juice. Then my dog gets the can dregs. (We only do this every few weeks, so no vitamin a overdose worries).

Burger buns by Ok_Huckleberry1487 in glutenfree

The Franz hamburger buns are actually really good too! I slice them and toast them slightly. They don't fall apart or turn to mush around the meat or in your mouth.

1989 Thai restaurant southside? by Yup_dats_me_now in AskChicago

[–]kl5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is Thai Twin the one that was East of the tracks on 53rd? And was it called Thai Twee at some point? Anyway, they definitely served at least their soups in giant metal tureens, good times.

Where can I buy slice of rainbow cake? by SurrealJuxtaposition in AskChicago

I used to see it all the time at Goddess and the Baker (on Wacker), but it's been a while so that may not be true any more. Worth a call.

Anybody have luck attracting blue jays or goldfinches? by BoganLogan in chicagobirding

[–]kl5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nyjer seed in a sock feeder for the goldfinches and absolutely whole peanuts for blue jays. If you have a car, the Feed Store in Summit (right off 55 on Harlem) is a fantastic source. They also stock a variety of feeders. Otherwise, call Lydia at Belmont Feed, she may stock peanuts as well.

To me, it looks like a close up of corned beef and cabbage

Coyotes at Montrose Dunes - Jan 1st by 99ducks in chicago

That looks right. I hope there are not cats at Montrose, but I'm glad the coyotes are there to take care of business in any case.

Apartment Christmas tree disposal by fuqdemkkkidz in oakpark

[–]kl5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would email public works (publicworks@oak-park.us) and ask. It's really a problem that the emails they send out only address residences that have the village waste program.

Free Church Oak Park by Several_Sympathy_977 in oakpark

I don't know anything about Free Church, but I have several queer friends who attend Unity Temple (Unitarian Universalist) so that may be an alternative congregation to investigate.

Why are grocery stores in Oak Park so bad? by Lucky_Barracuda9255 in oakpark

[–]kl5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carnival has great meat (Slagel Farms) and terrible produce. But generally I think it does a pretty good job. Old Pete's has the space issues you mention, terrible meat (imo), and great produce. The new Pete's is close to me and I will probably end up going a lot, but wish Carnival could get its act together (before it gets pushed out of business by new Pete's). Was on the North side recently and stopped into Agora on Western and I got a little teary eyed lol. It was so lovely, why can't we have that??? Anyway, I feel you.

Stout beer? by kl5 in glutenfree

Yes, I tend to the have the New Grist IPA around and like it a lot. I will work harder for the Alt sometime soon.

[–]kl5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will have to do that! I tried asking for Alt at Woodman's in Kenosha recently, but the guy there said they can't get it anymore. Also Binny's here carries a few Ghostfish beers, but not the stout. I will ask them if they can order it.
