I love …

… dual-control electric blankets. For anybody who’s ever needed fewer covers — or more warmth, for that matter — than the person on the other side of the bed, it’s a godsend.

— Paul Lockwood, Woodstock

… how my two co-workers at Highland Park Hospital compete each week on who makes this list!

— April Williams, Palatine

… the Anderson Japanese Gardens [318 Spring Creek Rd.] in Rockford. They are so beautiful and calming to my autistic son.

— Lisa Sosin, Lombard

I hate …

… when you hold a door open for people and they don’t say thank you — like you are their personal doorman. I feel like letting the door close on them before they exit.

— Kurt Raggi, Glenview

… when I valet my car at a restaurant and then receive a parking ticket based on the valet illegally parking my car.

— Carolyn McGuire, editor

… when cars stop in the pedestrian walkway area, causing pedestrians, often with kids in tow, to walk between cars or too close to traffic

— Kathryn Johnson, Elmhurst
