  • What to know before you ghost someone

    Betty Barsley-Marra|Updated Dec 14, 2022

    The title of this article might prompt the reader to think it would have been more appropriate for the Halloween season, but the timing of it is actually more apt in this current season of good will toward all and making resolutions for the better. The topic is humans and the relationships we create with our families, friends, neighbors, colleagues and romantic partners. These relationships help us thrive when they are supportive and loving, and we suffer when they are not....

  • Save room for Stollen this season

    Ken Knutson|Updated Dec 14, 2022

    December is the month for baking. Cookies, pies and other assorted treats are mixed liberally into the season, serving up tasty comfort in the midst of winter's tightening grip. Into this season of oven-rendered treats, Toni Patisserie and Café serves up a lesser known delight: Stollen. The traditional German holiday bread took a few years to catch on, said proprietor Toni Cox, who opened her shop in 1994. "We probably started out the first couple years making about 100 loaves...

  • Hinsdale Assembly ball to celebrate NICU pledge

    Alexis Braden|Updated Dec 7, 2022

    For more than two decades, 20 percent of babies born at AdventhHealth Hinsdale Hospital have relied on the medical center's neonatal intensive care unit, which year after year offers the tiniest and most fragile patients exemplary care. And despite the Level III NICU's vital importance, the unit never has been renovated. Hinsdale mother Katie Beuke saw this firsthand. Beuke gave birth to her son Charlie 12 weeks early. He spent his first 98 days in one of the hospital's most...

  • Holy Land trip brings Gospels to life

    Pamela Lannom|Updated Dec 7, 2022

    When the Rev. Burke Masters leads Christmas worship at St. Isaac Jogues later this month, his preaching will be informed by his visits to the Holy Land. "I knew this was real, but there's a depth to the reality after going," he said. "I knew there was a Bethlehem, but when you go to Bethlehem, it was like, 'Oooh, it was here.' Whenever I read (the story of Jesus' birth), it sends chills down my spine." He made his sixth trip to the Holy Land - and his second this year - in...

  • Gingerbread brings joy to the holidays

    Amy McCauley|Updated Nov 30, 2022

    The sweet smell of ginger, cinnamon and cloves fills the air as I open our back door. My girls quickly drop their school bags and coats as they scramble in the house. Joyful grins light up their faces as they catch a whiff. The familiar spicy fragrance means something wonderful is coming - gingerbread. Baking gingerbread cookies with my daughters is one our family's most beloved holiday traditions. It doesn't matter how many things I have left to do on my holiday list or how m...

  • Pizza is in the eye of the beholder

    Pamela Lannom|Updated Nov 22, 2022

    Pizza is pizza. It's not nearly as complicated as the chocolate mousse cake chef Mick Weisz had to make for the final of his baking class in culinary school. Or many of the other dishes on the menu at Giuliano's, which Weisz owns with his wife, Cathy. But it is delicious - especially when topped with roasted garlic paste, homemade tomato sauce, mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, goat cheese crumbles and basil, Weisz' version of a pizza margherita. It's my favorite pizza on...
