Train People

I took the CTA trains to downtown Chicago today to meet my son, Christopher, for lunch. First, the Purple Line to Howard. Then, the Red Line to State and Lake Streets. We ate at Harry Carey's. He treated. Great spinach pasta with Italian sausage in a tomato sauce. Good people watching on the trains but it's hard to draw them discreetly.

"TODAY I SAW" postcard from Jill Wignall

This postcard just arrived from my blogger friend, Jill Wignall in London from her blog: http://jillstodayisaw.blogspot.com.

She does one every day and sends the postcards to lucky people who request them. Fabulous idea! Check out her blog. In August, she picked blackberries from bushes along side the train tracks in an industrial area of London.

9.2.10 Boston Cream and Coffee at Dunkin' Donuts

Seems there's not as much "custard" in a Dunkin' Donuts Boston Cream donut as I remember. I guess that's true of a lot of things today.
