People Bring Their Own Jars To Stock Up At This Illinois Bulk Food Store

Half of this little store is candy. The other half holds spices, flours, nuts, teas, and coffee, and you can scoop all of it into jars you carried from home. That detail alone made me want to know more. Shoppers bring clean containers, the staff weighs them, and you pay only for what goes inside.

Michael Reese Site Developers Make $10 Billion Pitch For Bears Stadium

The Sun-Times reports that developers have made a $10 billion (with a B!) pitch with a plan to make the former Michael Reese Hospital site the next home of the Bears. This isn’t the first time we’ve heard the former Michael Reese Hospital site floated as an option. Back in 2024, it joined a long list of options that have been presented to the team in its search for a future home.

That was until she looked at the little number 19 written on her ball, her boyfriend’s jersey number, and was reminded that no matter what, it will be OK .
