High Noon: Vodka-based Alternative to White Claw
Bubbles the waitress at Lottie’s introduced me to High Noon last night. While White Claw & Truly are malt liquors with a vodka-soda-ish taste; High Noon actually contains vodka and soda. With an added pineapple twist! I’m seeking these out from now on:

Northwestern Tailgating & Halloween Party DJ
Saturday was a full day. Up early to tailgate in Evanston before Northwestern hosted Iowa. Can’t say I’ve ever tailgated in Evanston, but it’s a pretty respectable scene for a school rarely touted for its partying. Blats got up super early with his kids and set up base complete with a grill and TV…

Khalil Mack Makes Everything Better, Including Pizza
I walked down my block towards the Blue line in my Trubisky jersey yesterday on my way to meet the Grahamdogger and crew at Kroll’s South Loop before the Bears game. A neighbor emerged from his front door wearing a Khalil Mack jersey. We exchanged knowing nods and slight smiles of anticipation. A homeless woman…
