The Thorne Rooms at the Chicago Art Institute
The Chicago Art Institute is one of my favorite museums in the world. And I am sure you have already assumed that it’s because it was the museum I visited with my parents throughout my childhood. You are correct! But bias aside – there is one area of the Chicago Art Institute that I rave about to this day (and frequently revisit). If you haven’t walked down to the catacombs (a.k.a., the lower level) to visit the Thorne Rooms, then you must plan your next trip. Or you should at least mark it as a go-to during your next jaunt to Chicago. Because they’re just that fantastic.
Book Reading, Alcohol and Taxes
Yes, it’s that time of year again. The time to gather paperwork, itemize receipts and hold your breath until your accountant gives you the (good or bad) news. Dear readers, it is time to do your taxes.
