Roscoe Village, Chicago
On Roscoe Street between Kitsch’n and Orange there is a small business with a sign in the window that says “Dogs Understand the Importance of Naps.” Many times when I pass there is a dog sleeping in the window. I’ve taken a few photos of this scene, but they always turn out horrible [...]

On Tuesday, Stephanie and I went to the farmers’ market. I don’t know if she’d ever been to a farmers’ market before. She wasn’t too terribly interested. Vegetables are not cool, apparently.

Summer of Rachelle Ideal Lunch: Discount Sushi
July 1st, 2008 · No Comments · Uncategorized
What could be better than sitting outside in the dappled shade eating half-priced maki on a perfect summer day? Doing it on a random Tuesday afternoon when most of the world is at work, I suppose. Tank Sushi is open for lunch so I decided to try it out. I must admit, though, only the [...]
