Houses for Hobbits on Honore
February 22nd, 2006 · 1 Comment
Hobbit House, Wicker Park, Chicago
This house on Honore, between North & Milwaukee, has always intrigued me. I know the reason it’s like this is because it was built before the streets were raised… or something? So the front door and all that is far beelow street/sidewalk level. These houses below are all around the house above. They’ve got the same thing going on, but maybe not as dramatically.

Fake Plastic Food

Fake Plastic Food, Oak Creek, WI
I was in Wisconsin this weekend visiting my family. My niece Jessica, who will be 3 in a couple months, is obsessed with this fake plastic food she has. She plays with it and serves it to you. For some reason when she serves you with the cups she always says it’s coffee, even though neither of her parents drink coffee. One thing she did learn from my brother about beverages, though: When we were out to eat my mom drew a cup, or a mug, on a napkin and asked Jessica what it was, thinking she’d say “coffee.” She said “beer”!
