I LOVE …

… funnel cakes at festivals. I look forward to it all year.

–Jane Hirt, editor

… being able to relax in air-conditioned comfort on Metra as I commute to and from work, especially on days when heat indices are over 100 outside and I know that the tempers of drivers stuck in traffic may be soaring along with the temperatures.

–Paul Lockwood, Woodstock

… retirees who volunteer at hospitals, schools, libraries, PADS, etc. Do as much as you can, for as many as you can, for as long as you can.

–Angela Orlando, Bloomingdale

I HATE …

… restaurants that won’t seat you until the entire party is present. Why should my 93-year-old father have to stand in the bar and wait for his tardy granddaughter, especially when the table is ready?

–MaryAnne Spinner, Chicago

… restaurants that serve vegetable, minestrone, split pea and lentil soups with chicken or beef broth instead of vegetable broth!

–Brien Comerford, Glenview

… when servers do not write your order down and then proceed to ask you to repeat it later, or get it wrong altogether.

— Liisa Gary, Arlington Heights
