If you do go, tell me what you think. Dinner finished up on the late side, otherwise I would have gone down to Winnetka to see him. I have talked to him about a Roundtable program, so your feedback will help.

I laughed. And then I cried. He captures a lot about love, food, and life in Chicago in this piece.Ava-"If you get down and out, just get in the kitchen and bake a cake."- Jean Strickland
