Do you know any 6 year olds? They want EVERYTHING.

Do they even know how many germs are on money? A dollar bill is COVERED with ick. I’d rather have a debit card thrown at me for a smooch.

Wait. I thought all us Chicagoans moved to Milwaukee for the welfare. We could have gone to Minnesota? Isn’t there a warmer place for Chicagoans to move for the welfare?

They are auditioning for a Real Housewives franchise. Those women run from 30's to 60's (although no one will admit to 60) and act just like the Pump crowd. Very unseemly. But do I watch? Hell yes I watch.

Right?

That is officially the coat of my dreams (*sigh* no plus sizes). Amazon has their coats and they have a similar one in white. Expensive though.

Disclaimer . . . I’m definitely NOT an unpasteurized milk person. But as a child I spent my summers in Ireland and we drank milk straight outta the cow, stray hairs, bugs and all. It was gross because it was warm (no electricity) and that made me heave, but other than that we suffered no ill effects. But boy oh boy I…

Oh for cryin’ out loud. Why does everyone have to be looking for a fight all the time? Is Trump here since they took away his Twitter?

But you’re talking about Chicago deep dish pizza. Regular Chicago pizza is the very definition of toothsome, thin crust, cut in squares only, deliciousness.

Go Cubs Go! It’s nuts around here . . . fireworks going off, people coming out of their houses . . . everyone’s happy.

As we say in Chicago, he’s a jagoff.

How long before Melania kicks his disgusting ass to the curb? She’s going to, right? She has to. No woman with a shred of self respect would stay with that animal, right? I can’t imagine having to look at that thing every day.

I had a choice of smoking or non-smoking hospital room when I gave birth in 1983. The minute I was settled in that room after our son was born, I sent my husband straight out for a pack of Kools and a bottle of wine.

So , speaking of TV shows, anyone from Chicago watching the Dick Wolf shows? PD and Med have just started and my son and I are keeping track of the obvious “send someone out for all the papers and find the Chicago buzzwords” lines. Last week on Med it was “Welcome to Chiraq” and “I’ll treat for a burger at Au Cheval”.…

Nicole drives me mental. Her insistence on PDA when he’s so obviously uncomfortable with it (although I doubt it’s so much to do with his culture as it is he’s just not into her) is so childish. I get that she’s young and probably hasn’t been exposed to other cultures but she’s so petulant.

I’m obsessed with 90 Day Fiancee. I just read a spoiler about who ended up married from this season and it was no surprise at all. And I’m loving that they are doing that ever after show showing the couples from last season. Danielle and Mohammed! He’s such a creep and G-d love her, she’s taken up with yet another…

God bless her and save her and all the hard cases like her is what my father used to say (in Irish). No clue what hard cases meant but we still say it in his honor. It’s a burn, we know that.

I haven’t lost a child. But I have a child, now a grown man, and still I worry about his well being every single day. And I have been to funerals of children. My heart is sore at their pain. Whether it’s the SIDS baby, or the child who overdosed, the pain is palpable. It’s easy enough to say at least they have…

Don’t waste your nostalgia on this rotten humdity. Save your nostalgia for an Italian beef or Mario’s Italian lemonade. Chicago was wicked all last week but it looks like the week coming up will be low 80's every day, which will feel like winter. Com Ed is sending me roses and champagne every couple of days because I…

My mom made what she called a proper shandy. Harp Lager with Schweppes white lemonade. Yummy but it spoiled me for all other shandies. Same with her hot toddies. Never can get the ratio of whiskey to hot water right. I’m drinking club soda tonight ‘cause of pain meds. :-(
