I love …
… house-made green pea soup [served Wednesdays] at Mrs. D’s Diner [415 4th St.] in Wilmette. Hair on your chest, and ready for 40 below.
— Timmins Dodson, Wilmette
… Novak Construction, which takes the time to put up spectacular holiday lights off the Kennedy near Addison to brighten my day. After a long day of travel, I truly enjoy the landmark as I make my way home from O’Hare.
— Kelly Espinoza, Chicago
… how people have started spending less and setting priorities in their lives due to the economy.
— Shayna Hardy, Chicago
I hate …
… colleagues who comment on what you’re eating for lunch.
— Barry Hopkins, Evanston
. . . people who clean snow off their car windows but leave 6 inches atop their car to blow off on cars behind them, blinding their windshield.
— Jean Whitney, Palos Heights
… shampoo people in beauty shops who don’t know how to wash hair correctly. Some only do a partial wash.
— Dorothy Olmsted, Mokena
