My boyfriend has this ridiculous velvet (yes, velvet!) portrait of John Wayne hanging in our office. Three years ago, when I moved in I hated it- not only is it ugly, but its HUGE. A few months ago during a redecorating phase he told me he would get rid of it. I was thrilled at first, but I have this connection to that damned thing now. It's still hanging on our wall. At the end of the day that silly piece of "art" reminds of him- and that always makes me smile. Getting a Fresh Perspective: How I Learned to Love an Eyesore |

Living in Chicago my whole life I am not at all surprised that it's toward the top of the list. Violent crime is rampant, the city is highly segregated, public transit is losing tons of money and crippled with crumbling infrastructure, there is little green space, and the weather can be gross. Yet despite all this, rents are high. Top 20 Most Miserable Cities in America Forbes |

I'm car-free have been for the past 7 years in Chicago. Transit gets me wherever I need to go. The only thing I hate about it is having a dog. Luckily our vet is just a few blocks walk away, but getting him to training/boarding/traveling is an absolute nightmare. I still hate cars though. Car For a Day: What Would You Do? |

Vitamix! Hell, that beast will purée raw carrots. It's a great investment, and after you use it regularly, everything else is just laughable. How Can I Make Really Smooth & Creamy Carrot Soup? Good Questions |

I see this as a great vegan option, but maybe not so much a healthy option. Also, @WIKIVH, Whole Foods sells bacon/lunch meat without nitrites/nitrates. Crunchy, Smoky...Vegan?! Coconut Bacon Fettle Vegan |
