I'm not crazy about lentil soup to be honest, I've rarely enjoyed any of the ones I've tried however I do love braised lentils and often love this as a side dish in restaurants. I'll try red wine as an add on, in the past I've tried stock, balsamic vinegar and other add-ons but they still seem to keep coming out…

I used to eat a lot of rice and I live with someone who loves potatoes so legumes would kind of be an overkill. We are trying to add more variety to our diet and legumes are it for now.

The fact that I don't wear makeup basically means nothing other than the fact that I like to sleep in as late as possible.

I'm a 90% no-makeup person. My husband hates it. I wish I hate the energy to wear it more often, but man, I'm just tired all the time and I want to be able to rub my eyes without getting mascara in my eyeballs.

Eh—Slats wouldn't bother with the vaccines debate; he came from the time when there were about five total on the pediatric schedule, and drank enough to kill off anything else coming his way.

Neither Royko, Harris, or Kogan would understand what a "lifestyle section" is. Once enlightened, they'd probably rattle off a string of expletives so colorful the Sun-Times would reduce it from a section to a partial page, dominated by ads for Danley Garages or battery-operated sump pumps.

They are coming. Please do not feed the trolls and drag that crap up from the grey.

Please folks, don't feed the troll! This is enraging enough without any additional bullshit. Don't bring their posts out of the greys by responding. Rape is rape and we know that and we will never change his/her mind. Silence the troll!!
