Taste of Chicago
When Lise stood up at the Northbrook Chamber meeting for some reason I got the impression that she could design a spectacular gift basket for one person or maybe a small group of people. Little did I know she has huge capabilities and loves orders of 2,000 baskets. And here's the thing -- tisket, a tasket every basket is a work of art filled with delights everyone loves.
I don't just love Basketworks; I lurve Basketworks.
Jim Ardito, President Ardito Creative Enterprises

You Were Never in Chicago

You Were Never in Chicago

Understanding Chicago is never easy, even for natives.  You Were Never in Chicago, by Neil Steinberg is a fascinating read, offering a view of the city from an outsider who made the city his home.  A combination of travelogue, memoir and history, this book will make Chicago feel like home.    To make it extra special, each copy of the book is signed by the author.  
 
Patrick Ryan, Toronto Star - "A triumph...his Chicago is a sprawling Dickens novel of a place."

New York Times - "a strong case for Second City exceptionalism"
