spring is coming

{one} There is hope that spring might come. The ice skating rink at Millennium Park is officially closed. They seem to be trying to get the ice to melt. Of course the current temperature is below freezing and snow is in the forecast. Still, I'll miss the Zamboni machine.

{two} If you buy lots of books, you may want to check out Border's Rewards. It kind of works like those reward cards at the big chain supermarkets. And you can even keep it on your key chain if you like.

{three} Free cool new music to download at Mercedes Benz. Who knew?

{four} The Chicago Flower Show is at Navy Pier this week. Take avantage of the Late Bloomer offer, and $5 off admission after 4pm (3/13 - 3/17). Click on "General Info" for the details.

{five} Ina Gardner is going to be at Fox and Obel on March 16, 2006 from 4-6 signing books and promoting her new food line which is backed by Stonewall Kitchen.

{six} Daphne Zuniga and Grant Show (of Melrose Place) are acting together again in Beautiful People.

{seven} Lots of fun games at Orisinal. Very cute too.

{eight} The best cupcakes in town are at Southport Grocery & Cafe. Mmmm buttercream frosting. Perfect for a birthday treat.
